Senra Systems has closed a $65 million Series B, bringing total funding to over $112 million. The round was co-led by Lowercarbon Capital and Interlagos, with participation from General Catalyst, Sequoia Capital, Andreessen Horowitz, Founders Fund, Dylan Field, CIV, 8VC, The Friedkin Group, Jaws Estates Capital, Sozo Ventures, and Alumni Ventures.

Jordan Black, co-founder and CEO of Senra Systems, and Ken Venner, Senra's new Chief Technology and Product Officer, join Sourcery for a full breakdown plus a walkthrough of the new 80,000 sq ft Cypress factory.

Jordan Black co-founded Senra after managing the R&D team for electronics at SpaceX, where wire harnessing was the bane of everyone's existence and 95% of it was outsourced for Falcon and Dragon. He started the company on his apartment carpet with co-founder Ben Shanahan, who helped write the application software that scaled Starlink production from day one.

Ken Venner joins as CTPO after a legendary career in manufacturing. He scaled Broadcom from 1,000 people and $400M in revenue to 10,000 employees and $8.6B across 52 acquisitions, then served as CIO of SpaceX, where he built Warp Drive, the custom operating system that helped scale production from 1 booster a year to 40.

Wire harnesses are the nervous system behind every advanced platform, from rockets and satellites to cars, missiles, and generators. They can account for 25% of a vehicle's cost, and they are still built almost entirely by hand. Senra is digitizing the process with Amp, its proprietary manufacturing operating system, and training a new workforce in weeks instead of years.

We cover the funding environment, the Redondo vs Cypress factory split, the reindustrialization macro, vertical integration, the Ken Venner hire, and the plan for Factory 3.
