About Epirus

Epirus is a high-growth technology company developing software-defined high-power microwave (HPM) systems with devastating counter-electronics effects on modern drone threats. The Epirus Leonidas HPM family of products, empowered by innovations in AI and microelectronics, is human safe and cost-effective. Distinguishing itself from lasers, Leonidas excels against drone swarms while also bending the cost curve back in DoD's favor - taking drone defeat costs from millions of dollars per drone to pennies on the dollar.

  • Lead nonconformance management, root cause analysis and corrective actions for assembly and integration issues.
  • Manage field quality issues, including failure investigations, customer/program communication, and timely closure of corrective actions.
  • Collaborate with manufacturing and engineering to drive system wide quality initiatives to meet quality and reliability objectives.
  • Support and lead product qualification, first article inspection (FAI), and verification/validation efforts with test engineering.
  • Foster a culture of proactive quality ownership.

Basic Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related technical discipline.
  • 5+ years of experience in quality, manufacturing, or engineering for complex mechanical or electromechanical systems.

  • Proficiency in root cause analysis, failure analysis, reliability testing, and problem-solving methodologies.
  • Experience in New Product Introduction (NPI) and transitioning products from development to production.
  • Knowledge of quality management system standards (ISO 9001, AS9100, or similar).
  • Knowledge of quality tools and principles using APQP framework (DFMEA, PFMEA, control plans, etc.).
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills with the ability to drive improvements in fast-paced environments.

Preferred Skills and Experience:

  • Professional certifications: ASQ Certified Quality Engineer (CQE), Certified Auditor, or Six Sigma (Green Belt or Black Belt).
  • Understanding of electronics, complex assemblies, system integration, and test.
  • Experience developing and implementing APQP mechanisms.
  • Knowledge of reliability engineering, environmental/qualification testing, and failure analysis techniques.
