Avionics Integration Technician

At Stoke, we believe that a thriving space economy leads to a vibrant, sustainable, and equitable future here on Earth. That is why we are building our fully and rapidly reusable vehicle, Nova. It is designed to fly daily and solve the core challenges of space transportation – it reduces cost, increases availability, and enhances reliability. By radically lowering the cost and increasing the cadence of launch, we’re able to create a truly scalable space industry.

Our team is mission-driven, collaborative, and empowered with ownership of their work. If you want to work with some of the most dedicated and talented people on Earth, come join us.

Reusable launch systems are the key to seamlessly connecting Earth and space. Well-made vehicle electronics will make or break a mission. As an Avionics Integration Technician your role will be a fundamental part of the production process for the avionics system from end-to-end. You will be responsible for the delicate work of producing custom wire harnesses, electronic, and electromechanical assemblies to the exacting specifications required.

Your work does not stop after assembly and will also be responsible for performing functional tests, then installing your products on flight and test vehicles. You will be a leader and act as the final check on engineering designs – your feedback will be invaluable as we create a functioning space economy.
