Empirical Systems Aerospace, Inc. (ESAero) Tech Stack
Aerospace design and manufacturing for military, NASA, and commercial air vehicle programs
ESAero is a 51–200-person aerospace engineering and manufacturing firm focused on new product introduction, from conceptual design through low-rate initial production. The tech stack reveals a traditional aerospace manufacturing operation: SolidWorks + PDM, MATLAB + Simulink for simulation, SAP/Epicor/NetSuite for enterprise resource planning, and embedded systems tools (PX4, ArduPilot, ARM) for propulsion and control work. Current hiring is engineering-heavy (23 of 37 open roles) with a major ERP migration underway (adopting Oracle NetSuite), alongside active projects in aircraft programs, prototype build-and-test, and design-process codification — signaling an effort to scale production workflows and reduce cost while maintaining aerospace compliance.
