Engineering Internship, Business Operations (Summer 2027)

Engineering Internship, Business Operations (Summer 2027) Amca is building America’s new industrial base.

Today, we operate seven factories nationwide, including our advanced prototyping and testing headquarters in El Segundo, and deliver avionics, hydraulic, and electrical components for platforms such as the F-35, F-16, F/A-18, 737MAX, 787, A320neo, A321, Mk-48, and M1 Abrams.
