Structural Engineer - Aerospace

A bit about us:

We are a mission-driven aerospace and defense engineering firm specializing in applied research, advanced manufacturing, and next-generation flight systems. With over 60 years of combined legacy expertise, our teams support critical programs across the Department of Defense, federal agencies, and commercial aerospace customers.

Our work spans propulsion and flight, structures and materials, aerospace safety, and advanced manufacturing-bringing together deep technical knowledge and hands-on engineering to deliver real, deployable solutions.

Operating with the agility of a smaller, specialized firm but backed by significant resources and contract vehicles, we thrive in solving complex, high-stakes engineering challenges where innovation directly impacts mission success.

Why join us?

High-Impact Work: Contribute directly to aerospace and defense programs that influence national security and next-generation flight technologies.
True Engineering Environment: Work alongside highly specialized engineers in structures, materials, and advanced systems-where technical depth is valued and utilized.
Agility + Stability: Experience the best of both worlds-a nimble, collaborative culture with the backing of long-term government programs and funding.
Broad Technical Exposure: Engage across the full lifecycle-from R&D and design to testing, validation, and deployment of aerospace systems.
Career Growth Without Silos: Avoid being boxed into narrow roles-engineers here gain cross-functional exposure and real ownership of their work.
