Senior Technical Program Manager (Avionics)

Muon, a leading company in the aerospace industry, as a Senior Technical Program Manager (Avionics). In this high-impact role, you will lead the planning, production, acceptance testing, and delivery of flight electronic assemblies for our next-generation satellite constellations. You will be the primary operational owner for transforming engineered printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) into complete, tested units ready for spacecraft integration and software development testbeds. This role requires a strong background in electrical engineering, hardware manufacturing, and program management.

Lead the end-to-end planning, production, acceptance testing, and delivery of flight electronic assemblies for next-generation satellite constellations.

Serve as the primary operational owner for transforming engineered printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) into complete, tested units ready for spacecraft integration.

Responsibilities

• Drive the planning, resource allocation, and schedule execution of Unit Acceptance Testing (UAT) for all flight avionics entering Assembly, Integration, and Test (AI&T).
• Familiarity with hardware/software integration environments, testbeds, or Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) simulators used for flight software development

Requirements

• Hands-on technical background in electrical engineering, computer engineering, embedded systems, or avionics testing
• Proven track record managing PCBA production lifecycles—from design releases and fab/assembly procurement through functional board bring-up and acceptance testing
• Familiarity with program management scheduling tools such as Smartsheets, Microsoft Project, or similar software
• 5+ years of experience in technical program management, engineering leadership, or hardware production management delivering complex electronic assemblies, electronics systems, or aerospace hardware
• U.S. Citizenship required (program is ITAR-restricted)
• PMP certification or equivalent program management credentials
• Experience operating the Linux command line interface and writing scripts with the Python programming language

Preferred

• Demonstrated experience managing programs with a complex critical-path supply chain
• Experience managing environmental/acceptance testing campaigns for electronics (e.g., thermal cycling, functional screening, vibe/shock testing)
• Proficiency with ERP/PLM and tracking tools (e.g., Jira, Arena, Agile PLM, SAP, or similar toolsets)

Join

• Direct experience in satellite or aerospace AI&T, avionics manufacturing, or satellite constellation volume production
• Working knowledge of space-grade PCBA standards (e.g., IPC-J-STD-001GS/Space Addendum, IPC-A-610, NASA-STD-8739)
• USD 206,000 - 232,000
