This role is a strong fit for someone who likes practical engineering, data-informed problem solving, and building scalable manufacturing systems in a high-ownership environment. ## What you’ll do - Review designs for producibility and lead tasks that transition hardware from low-rate initial production to volume production. - Research, design, modify, and test production methods and equipment based on a deep understanding of hardware and software requirements. - Improve production efficiency and effectiveness by analyzing workflows, optimizing space utilization, and maximizing equipment throughput without compromising quality. - Establish standards, design testing methods, and implement rate production validation processes to support hardware and process quality. - Collect, analyze, and summarize process information and trends to inform production strategy and propose solutions for future throughput and cost targets. - Support equipment uptime and technician utilization to ensure conforming hardware is delivered on schedule. - Develop, qualify, and implement automation solutions that support production ramp and manufacturing reliability. - Partner with Production, Engineering, Operations, and other cross-functional teams to solve issues quickly and improve factory execution. ## What you’ll need - Bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline, ABET accreditation required, or equivalent experience. - Proficiency in aggregating and analyzing technical data to make objective, data-informed decisions. - Proficiency in process development using DOE or similar multi-path experimental approaches. - Strong written and verbal communication skills. - Demonstrated ability to collaborate with all levels of an organization. - Competency with CAD software. - Must be able to work full-time, W2, onsite in El Segundo, CA. - This role may require access to ITAR-controlled technical data. Candidates must be currently authorized to access ITAR-controlled information as a U.S. person, including as a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, lawful permanent resident, refugee, or asylee. ## Preferred qualifications - 3+ years of experience in manufacturing, mechanical, electrical, or test engineering in aerospace, automotive, or commercial industries. - Experience in the investment casting industry. - Intermediate CAD modeling capabilities. - Demonstrated ability to scale production throughput. - Familiarity with WMS, MES, and ERP systems. - Experience qualifying, operating, and maintaining industrial equipment. Additional requirements - Must be able to work extended hours and/or weekends as needed. ## Compensation Please note that the compensation information below is a general guideline. Compensation is based on demonstrated candidate experience and qualifications, as well as market and business considerations. Level 2: $108,000 – $132,000 annually + equity Level 3IC: $126,000 – $154,000 annually + equity ## Benefits and perks Rangeview offers a competitive benefits package, including equity, unlimited PTO, medical, dental, and vision insurance. Compliance Rangeview is a DDTC-registered, ITAR-compliant business. To conform to U.S. Government export regulations, applicants must be currently authorized to access ITAR-controlled information as a U.S. person, including as a U.S. citizen or national, U.S. lawful permanent resident, refugee under 8 U.S.C. § 1157, or asylee under 8 U.S.C. § 1158.

Claimed benefits include higher yield, lower tooling costs, and dramatically reduced lead times compared to traditional investment casting. - **Materials & Capabilities**: Handles nickel, cobalt, and other superalloys (e.g., MAR‑M‑247, IN713LC, IN718); vacuum and air melt casting; surface finishes down to less than 10 µin Ra after superfinishing; supports DFM, NDT, heat treatment, HIP, machining, metallurgical analysis, and mechanical testing. ## Market Standing - **Valuation / Market Cap**: Not publicly available. - **Key Metric**: Total disclosed funding ≈ $200K Seed round (CB Insights); also secured a $1.43M U.S. Air Force SBIR Phase II award in 2025 (SBIR.gov). - **Notable Investors / Partners**: Berkeley SkyDeck (lead), TenOneTen Ventures, Pathbreaker Ventures, Calibrate Ventures, Shield Capital, and others. - **Growth Signals**: Headcount grew 63.6% year-over-year to ~15 employees (LinkedIn); website traffic up 190% yearly; awarded a significant SBIR contract in 2025; currently hiring for senior engineering and automation roles. ## Competitive Advantages - **Differentiated Process**: Replace the multi‑step traditional investment casting with a digital, ceramic‑mold additive process – fewer steps, less tooling cost, faster turnaround. - **Material Expertise**: Deep capability with nickel‑ and cobalt‑based superalloys critical for turbine components; supports high‑precision standards (AMS 2175 Grade A). - **Self‑Reinforcing Moat**: Combining proprietary equipment, software, and materials in a single “cyberfoundry” creates a hard-to-replicate system where machine, material, and data are continuously improved together. ## Strategic Focus - **Priorities**: Scale up production capacity for defense and aerospace customers; further reduce porosity and material waste; automate more steps in the foundry; expand team talent in casting engineering, equipment automation, and government program management. - **Direction**: Deepen partnerships with DoD primes and leverage SBIR wins to move from prototyping to low‑rate initial production. ## Why Work Here - **Impact & Challenge**: Opportunity to redefine a century‑old manufacturing process – ideal for engineers who want to build machines and software that directly shape next‑gen defense components. - **Culture**: Small, tight‑knit team (15–25 people reported); founded by UC Berkeley alumni; early‑stage energy with hands‑on work from concept to production. - **Work Policy**: On‑site / in‑office in Los Angeles (El Segundo) and Colorado offices – not remote. - **Tech Stack**: Uses PostgreSQL, Greenhouse (ATS), NetSuite, Oracle, Java, TypeScript, GraphQL, React, Git – a modern engineering environment. - **Benefits & Perks**: Not extensively documented, but the Built In profile indicates employees report strong growth opportunities and a sense of mission. ## Sources 1.
