Innoflight Tech Stack

Space avionics and secure communications hardware for government and defense contractors

Aviation and Aerospace Component Manufacturing San Diego, California (CA) 51–200 employees Founded 2004 Privately Held

Innoflight designs radiation-tolerant avionics, RF systems, and secure communications hardware for small satellites and tactical space platforms. The stack is heavily embedded (Embedded Linux, RTOS, FPGA, Xilinx, ARM Cortex, RISC-V) with aerospace-grade modeling tools (ANSYS, NASTRAN, SolidWorks Simulation) and security frameworks (CMMC, NIST, AES, IPsec). Senior-heavy hiring (13 of 18 open roles) focused on embedded engineering signals they're scaling production alongside a secondary push to improve FP&A processes and reduce test failures—a pattern typical of defense contractors maturing their manufacturing and compliance operations.
