What they're building

Low-cost, modular weapon systems for ground and air platforms moderate signal

Today: Posting text: 'Aeon designs, builds, and flies low-cost, modular, weapon systems for ground and air platforms'

Roles: Senior RF Engineer · Senior Mechanical Engineer – Actuation

Requirements mention: antenna designs · transmitter architectures · signal processing · active radar systems · weapon systems · actuation · motion control · electromechanical subsystems · clean sheet actuation · tactical missile platform

Inference: the two engineering postings point to RF (active radar) and electromechanical actuation work on the tactical missile platform named in the actuation posting. The postings do not say what stage that platform is at.

Production, quality and flight operations moderate signal

Today: Posting text: 'programs in active development and in low-rate production'

Roles: Assembly Technician · Electronics Technician · Manufacturing Engineer · Quality Engineer · Project Manager · Mission Operations Lead

Requirements mention: low-rate production (posting building text) · build the test stands · run the tests

Inference: six hardware, quality and operations openings in Austin fit the postings' own statement that programs are in low-rate production and that Aeon flies its systems. These six postings list no requirements, so the scale of any production increase is unknown.

Defense supply chain and procurement moderate signal

Today: Posting text: 'Next-generation defense solutions, including low-cost, modular weapon systems for ground and air platforms, with programs in active development and in low-rate production'

Roles: Senior Buyer Contracts and Procurement · Inventory Control Manager

Requirements mention: procurement · negotiation · U.S. Government contracting requirements · International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) · export-controlled and defense-regulated supply chains · inventory management · inventory process

Inference: the buyer and inventory postings suggest Aeon is adding purchasing and inventory control for export-controlled, defense-regulated supply chains. The postings do not say how large this build-out is.

Where the headcount is going

DepartmentOpen
Other12

All 12 open roles are on-site in Austin, TX, and all were posted in the last 30 days. Half are production, quality and operations roles; the rest are engineering, supply chain, marketing and recruiting. Company size could not be confirmed: the employee figure on record appears to belong to a different company named Aeon, and aeon.info returned no content.

Who they need

Seniority: Four titles say Senior (one is Senior Director of Marketing), one says Manager (Inventory Control Manager), one says Lead (Mission Operations Lead), and the other six give no level in the title.

Skills named most: weapon systems, ground and air platforms, antenna designs, transmitter architectures, signal processing, active radar systems, actuation, motion control, inventory management, procurement, U.S. Government contracting requirements, International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR)

Locations: All 12 roles are listed as Austin, TX, none marked remote.

How to use this

If you're applying: Every role is on-site in Austin, TX, and the work is defense hardware with export-controlled supply chains. Technician, manufacturing, quality and operations roles are open alongside the senior engineering roles, but those postings list no requirements, so ask about them directly. The company website gave no further detail.

If you're selling or recruiting: Twelve roles opened in the last 30 days, all on-site in Austin, TX: four Senior titles, one Manager and one Lead. Half the openings are production and operations roles. Lead with the RF and actuation engineering hiring, the hardware and technician hiring, and the ITAR-controlled procurement hiring. Do not rely on the employee count on record; it does not appear to be this company.
