Senior Electrical Engineer

<div class="content-intro"><p><strong>Advanced Reentry Technologies</strong></p> <p><strong>Who We Are:<br></strong></p> <p>Inversion is an aerospace and defense company pioneering advanced reentry technology to enable next-generation capabilities from space. By combining high-performance materials, precision aerodynamics, and mission-driven autonomy, Inversion is transforming reentry into an operational capability for an entirely new class of missions.</p> <p>The company’s highly maneuverable reentry spacecraft, Arc, is designed for rapid global cargo delivery, hypersonic testing, and other national security missions that require precise, controlled flight through the atmosphere. Arc creates an entirely new transportation domain, unlocking unprecedented speed and global reach.</p> <p>Headquartered in Los Angeles, Inversion designs, manufactures, and integrates its spacecraft under one roof, enabling the company to move rapidly from concept to flight. The company is backed by leading investors including Y Combinator, Spark Capital, and Lockheed Martin Ventures, with customers across the U.S. government and commercial space industry.</p></div><h4 id="What-You'll-Do:" data-local-id="46e217f0e00d" data-renderer-start-pos="691"><strong><span class="TextRun SCXW94170995 BCX8" lang="EN-US" data-contrast="none"><span class="NormalTextRun SCXW94170995 BCX8">Position Overview:</span></span></strong></h4> <p data-local-id="46e217f0e00d" data-renderer-start-pos="691">As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you will be responsible for the architecture, design, integration, bring-up, and verification of mixed-signal, embedded, and RF-adjacent electrical hardware supporting Inversion’s next-generation re-entry vehicles.
