Job Description - Composites Quality Engineer

Company Overview
Hybron is an advanced manufacturing company that is building lightweight composites at mass production scale. At Hybron, we have pioneered a new composites manufacturing process that enables complex, high performance composite parts to be produced 10-100 times faster than traditional manufacturing, at a fraction of the cost.

We recently closed an oversubscribed $25M seed round, are backed by the Northrop Grumman Technology Accelerator, and are rapidly growing to commercialize and mass produce composite products at a scale never seen before. Our current focus is applying our proprietary process to composite artillery shells, solid rocket motor nozzles, gas turbine engine components, and airframes.

If you want to join a rapidly growing company working on cutting edge composites technology while building capabilities for the warfighter and reshoring U.S. manufacturing, then we want to speak with you.

About the Role
This is a full-time, in-person role at our El Segundo pilot facility. As you will be working at an early-stage deep tech startup, this role will span many different tasks. You will need to be a self-starter and be adaptable to performing many different jobs. Along with these high expectations comes the opportunity to significantly influence the product development, strategy, and trajectory of a fast-growing startup company. Your work will tangibly impact our company and the composites industry, and you will be able to make rapid professional gains in an environment that encourages growth and innovation.

This role involves building the foundation of Hybron’s quality program. This means leading the effort to establish a quality management system towards becoming AS9100 and ISO9001 certified. You will be responsible for ensuring that every part that leaves Hybron meets high quality standards through non-destructive and destructive testing, dimensional inspection, process control, and more.

Working in a high-growth company, you will be wearing many hats: project management, requirements identification, process optimization, continuous improvement, equipment and technology sourcing, hands on direct inspection and testing, customer engagement, and more.

Growth Opportunity and Targets
As you grow with Hybron, your responsibilities are expected to shift and evolve. Our hope is that you will be able to grow into the following responsibilities:

Grow and lead a quality team to ensure the highest standards are being met in when we manufacture at scale
Own Hybron’s quality program, systems, and infrastructure
Identify and execute on developing/integrating strategic technological capabilities
Spearhead, oversee, and deliver on large technology development initiatives
