Senior/Principal Lead Delivery Engineer - Aerospace

As the Senior/Principal Lead Delivery Engineer for Aerospace, you own customer outcomes for Luminary's aerospace engagements, spanning established OEMs and the next generation building the future of flight and space. You are a dual hat (project manager and product manager) leading a matrixed value delivery team that translates the hardest problems in aircraft design, propulsion, aeroelasticity, and certification-relevant analysis and more into Physics AI solutions. You partner with the GTM team on account engagement and growth.

What You'll Do

• Own end-to-end customer outcomes across new and existing aerospace accounts, from discovery and use case scoping through model development, deployment, and embedding into customer engineering workflows
• Author Statements of Work (SOWs), educate customers on the engagement plan, and own delivery accountability against them
• Lead a value delivery team in a matrix structure: Applications Engineers, Applied AI/ML Scientists, Data and Platform Engineers, and selected product engineers. Set technical direction, sequence the work, remove blockers
• Operate as a dual hat (project manager and product manager), running sprints, milestones, and risk while also choosing the right use cases and shaping the product intuition for what to build next
• Stay hands-on-keyboard where it matters. Debug a model, restructure a data pipeline, prototype a workflow integration. Lead from the front, not from slides
• Embrace co-engineering: work side-by-side with customers on use case development, sharing knowledge and building trust through visible, collaborative work
• Partner with GTM team on new account engagement, GTM-to-delivery handoff, and account growth
• Bring market and customer signal back to Product and Research, directly shaping Luminary's roadmap for aerospace use cases
