Aerospace and Engineering Jobs in Los Angeles and Orange County

Openings across the basin, from the South Bay space corridor to the San Fernando Valley and north Orange County.

Aerospace in Los Angeles is spread across the whole basin. The South Bay — El Segundo, Redondo Beach, Hawthorne and Torrance, around Los Angeles Air Force Base — designs and builds satellites, launch vehicles and the ground systems that run them. Seal Beach and Long Beach carry guidance, space and aircraft-services work; the west San Fernando Valley has built rocket engines and navigation systems for generations; and north Orange County, from Buena Park to Irvine, machines and assembles the parts. Much of the engineering needs a clearance. Chipton-Ross recruits the basin from three offices of its own, in Playa Del Rey, El Segundo and Long Beach.
