(NASDAQ: ONDS) and, together with World View, has joined forces to create Ondas Sentinel. Ondas Sentinel is a next-generation U.S. defense platform integrating long-endurance ISR, autonomous systems, counter-UAS technologies, and mission intelligence.\nWhile DZYNE is now part of Ondas Sentinel, we are still legally operating as DZYNE as we complete the formal integration of our systems and processes. As a result, you may see roles cross-posted across DZYNE and World View, during this transition. All positions represent opportunities within the same combined organization.\nWhat does this mean for candidates?\nYou’re joining a team that is accelerating the future of autonomous defense.\nYou’ll be part of a company backed by significant investment, strong growth, and mission-proven technology.\nYou’ll work alongside world-class engineers and innovators who have already delivered thousands of operational flight hours, high-impact ISR capabilities, leading counter-UAS systems, and breakthrough autonomous effects.\nYou’ll help shape a unified platform that enables operators to see more, decide faster, and act with confidence across the modern battlespace.\nTogether, Ondas Sentinel is building something bigger than any one company, a scalable, integrated defense organization designed to meet emerging mission needs with speed, precision, and purpose.\nIf you’re energized by ambitious missions, rapid innovation, and a chance to help define the future of autonomous defense, we’d love to have you on the team.\nPosition Title: Manufacturing Engineer - UAS, Electrical Focus\nLocation: Irvine, CA\nWork Arrangement: On-site\nPosition Summary\nThe Manufacturing Engineer supports day-to-day production of electro-mechanical assemblies, avionics assemblies, and wire harnesses within our airborne systems manufacturing environment. This role works closely with assembly technicians, avionics technicians, and design engineering to document build processes, resolve production-floor issues, and drive continuous improvements under an AS9100 compliant QMS. The Manufacturing Engineer ensures that work instructions, tooling, and test workflows are clear, robust, and production ready as products transition from engineering prototypes into stable, repeatable builds. This role is well-suited for an engineer with a strong electrical background who enjoys hands-on manufacturing, problem-solving, and working directly on the production floor.\nRequired Duties and Responsibilities:\nElectrical Manufacturing Support & Documentation\nCreate, maintain, and redline work instructions, assembly routers, and build documentation to ensure consistent, high-quality production.\nTrain assembly and avionics technicians on new or updated build and test instructions.\nReview and redline preproduction drawings in collaboration with Design Engineering.\nSupport technicians and Quality in generating redlines, nonconformance reports (NCRs), and build discrepancies.\nTooling, Fixtures & Assembly Test Support\nDesign mechanical and electrical fixtures, jigs, and tooling to aid repeatable assembly and testing.\nSupport ATP (Acceptance Test Procedure) execution by partnering with Test Technicians and Design Engineering and ensuring any supplemental test instructions or tools are developed.\nImprove build ergonomics and assembly efficiency through fixture updates and layout optimization.\nProduction BOMs, Routers, and Item Cards creation and modification.\nProduction Build Support\nAct as the frontline manufacturing liaison between technicians and design engineering to resolve build issues rapidly and accurately.\nSupport transition of new builds from engineering to production by validating manufacturability, documenting processes, and providing feedback on prototype builds.\nParticipate in root-cause analysis for build failures and first-article issues.\nContinuous Improvement\nIdentify opportunities to improve yield, cycle time, build clarity, and technician workflow.\nSupport small- to medium-scale Continuous Improvement initiatives as assigned by the Manufacturing Engineering Manager.\nApply basic industrial engineering concepts (time studies, simple layout improvements, process standardization).\nSupport drawing changes using ECN/ECR process.\nInterpret mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, assembly diagrams, and industry specifications.\nSupport electro-mechanical assemblies involving structures, PCBs, harnesses, connectors, avionics hardware, and basic mechanical components.\nApply general knowledge of materials, fasteners, structural assembly, and electrical best practices.\nRequired Skills/Qualifications:\n2-3 years of experience in manufacturing or production engineering (aerospace, automotive, unmanned systems, electro-mechanical assemblies, or similar).\nMust be able to support 6AM start time to align with shop schedule.\nAbility to read and interpret mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, wire harness documentation, and assembly diagrams.\nExperience supporting technicians on the floor, including creating redlines and investigating build issues.\nExperience supporting first-article builds, troubleshooting failures, and providing actionable manufacturing feedback.\nFamiliarity with both mechanical and electrical manufacturing practices (harnessing, PCBAs, connectors, LRU assembly, mechanical subassemblies, etc.)\nWorking knowledge of engineering analysis concepts (mechanical/electrical fundamentals) and industry standards\nWorking knowledge of best practices for creating electrical and mechanical drawings\nTechnical Competency & Cross-Discipline Familiarity\nPreferred Skills/Qualifications:\nExperience with CAD tools such as SolidWorks (mechanical) and basic familiarity with ECAD tools such as Altium (electrical).\nExposure designing simple fixtures or assembly aids.\nExperience with Visio Professional.\nExperience with acceptance testing, ATP development, or production test workflows.\nExperience in regulated, low-volume high mix aerospace or defense manufacturing\nEducation:\nBachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related technical field or equivalent work experience.\nClearance Level Required: None.\nExport Control / ITAR Requirement: This position requires access to information and technology subject to U.S. export control laws and regulations, including the International Traffic in Arms\nWork Authorization Requirement:\nCandidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis without the need for current or future employment visa sponsorship.\nTravel Required: Less than 10%\nWorking Conditions:\nThe diversity of work conditions may range from an environment where there is little or no physical discomfort, such as a general office environment, to warehouse and other facilities.\nPhysical Demands:\nThe physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by an employee to successfully perform the essential functions of this job:\nMust have the ability to stoop, stand, climb, occasionally lift a minimum of 25 lbs.\nInvolves movement between departments, floors, and worksites to facilitate work.\nSalary: $90,000 -
