Aerospace and defense systems integrator for hypersonics, missile defense, and orbital platforms
Aurex designs and manufactures mission-critical aerospace and defense systems—hypersonics, missile defense, hardened networks, orbital platforms—with a tech stack spanning embedded systems (ARM, PIC32, STM32), modeling and simulation (MATLAB, Simulink), defense standards tooling (IBM DOORS, MagicDraw, Rhapsody), and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Kubernetes). Heavy hiring (24 of 29 open roles are engineering, mostly senior-level) reflects active scaling across advanced space vehicle programs, missile defense weapon systems, and national security space integration—suggesting a company executing multiple concurrent prime-contractor-scale efforts rather than pure services.
Aurex is a privately held aerospace and defense company headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, founded in 2007. They design, test, and deliver systems across hypersonics, missile defense, orbital platforms, hardened networks, and related propulsion and avionics. The company serves U.S. Department of Defense and national security space customers. With 201–500 employees and active projects spanning advanced space vehicle programs, ground system development for GMD, and cryptographic solutions for orbital applications, Aurex operates in the full stack from concept and R&D through manufacturing and field integration. Their challenge set—NSA certification compliance, authority-to-operate approval, DoD acquisition process alignment, and cross-platform payload integration—marks them as a systems integrator managing high-assurance, multi-stakeholder national security programs.
Embedded systems (ARM, PIC32, STM32, UART, I2C, RS-485), simulation (MATLAB, Simulink, NVIDIA Jetson Orin), defense modeling (IBM DOORS, MagicDraw, Rhapsody), CAD/CAM (Altium Designer, Mastercam), infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Kubernetes), and project management (Jira, Confluence, Microsoft Project).
