Manufacturing Engineer
El Segundo, CA
Full Time
Experienced
Company Overview
Hybron Technologies is a startup that has developed a new manufacturing method for fiber-reinforced polymer composites that will revolutionize lightweight component production. Our new process solves the major challenges of traditional composites manufacturing, enabling more complex parts to be manufactured with higher quality and greater strength, at 10-100 times the speed. We have already successfully tested our first composite compressor blades in a fighter jet engine and are looking to apply this technology to many other applications in multiple sectors, from energy to aerospace to defense.
Your journey with us is more than just a job – it’s an opportunity to shape the future of advanced manufacturing. Our technology will help solve current major problems, namely by increasing the performance and reducing the cost of components for America’s warfighters, increasing the fuel efficiency of systems to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and bringing back domestic manufacturing. Join us as we work together to create a lighter and brighter future!
About the Role
This is an entry-level position within our manufacturing team, ideal for a motivated recent graduate or engineer with 2-4 years of experience ready to dive into hands-on composite manufacturing. You will be responsible for building, testing, and scaling composite parts for defense and aerospace applications under senior supervision.
You are a natural problem solver with a willingness to "get your hands dirty" building real parts and solving manufacturing challenges. You're a team player with a great attitude, a desire to constantly learn and improve, and welcome constructive criticism and direction from senior engineers. This is a full-time, in-person role at our El Segundo pilot facility.
