$42 million in new funding will help Layup Parts hire more staff and move into a larger facility this year, after the Huntington Beach startup previously raised a $9 million seed round.
The company is pitching software-driven composites manufacturing that cuts the time from customer data to finished carbon-fiber or fiberglass parts from weeks to hours in some cases.
Marlinspike led the round, joined by Cerberus Ventures and Pinegrove Venture Partners, with existing investors Founders Fund and Lux Capital also participating.
Founded in 2024 by former Anduril engineer Zack Eakin, Layup Parts targets a supply-chain gap in composites, with aerospace and defense already its biggest business lines.
