Job Description

Job Description
Hermeus is a venture-backed defense aviation company reclaiming the lost art of rapid iterative prototyping to build the fastest aircraft in the world today. By prioritizing relentless hardware iteration, we deliver high-speed systems at the pace of the modern battlefield. We work with the Department of War to provide the high-speed capabilities our nation and its allies need to maintain a durable, asymmetric advantage.

We are seeking an Integration Engineer to take ownership of structural hardware from design release through build, test, and delivery — including airframe primary structure, wings, tail, control surfaces, and other critical load-bearing assemblies.
You’ll serve as the key link between design, manufacturing, and test — ensuring structural assemblies are built to exacting standards of precision, quality, and reliability. This is a highly hands-on, cross-functional role that combines deep technical understanding with strong program execution and first-principles problem-solving.
Responsibilities
  • Provide design feedback for manufacturability, assembly, testing, and transport of complex flight structures.
  • Establish and maintain build roadmaps for assigned assemblies, ensuring cross-functional alignment, on-time hardware delivery, and proactive issue resolution.
  • Develop and release build CONOPS, work instructions, standard procedures, and process documentation that enable high-quality, high-speed execution.
  • Support first-article and development builds in a fast-paced, early-stage environment; work hands-on with technicians to validate tooling, processes, and design intent.
  • Drive design, process, and capital equipment trades to enable future builds and contribute to scalable manufacturing systems and infrastructure.
  • Lead make-vs-buy assessments and collaborate with Engineering and Supply Chain to achieve optimal cost, schedule, and performance outcomes.
  • Provide hands-on floor support during structural assembly, integration, and test activities.
  • Champion continuous improvement across tooling, factory workflows (ERP/MES), and internal standards to increase build efficiency, repeatability, and quality.
Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • 3+ years of experience in aerospace or high-performance structural assembly, integration, or manufacturing.
  • Deep understanding of aerospace assembly best practices and structural integration principles.
  • Exposure to tolerance stack-up analysis, structural proof testing, drilling and fastening operations, and leak or pressurization checks.
  • Proficient in CAD, GD&T, and first-principles engineering analysis.
  • Strong communicator capable of interfacing across design, manufacturing, test, and supply chain functions.
  • Proven ability to operate autonomously and define new processes from the ground up in a fast-moving environment.
Preferred Skills & Experience
  • Experience supporting new product introduction or prototype development at an aerospace or defense company.
  • Hands-on experience authoring and executing work instructions; capable of leading complex first-time structural builds.
  • Familiarity with critical lift and rigging operations, structural proof and load testing, or hazardous operations.
  • Experience with metallic and composite structural assemblies, including welding, bonding, or bolting (TIG/MIG/laser preferred).
  • Background in Lean manufacturing, tooling development, or supplier management in support of rapid hardware development cycles.
Additional Requirements
  • Must be willing to work hands-on in the integration area and around heavy equipment on a daily basis.
  • Ability to lift up to 25 lbs and perform physically active work as required.
  • Occasional extended hours or weekend work may be required to support key program milestones.
The salary information provided is a general guideline only. Hermeus takes various factors into account, including, but not limited to, the position's scope and responsibilities, the candidate's professional background, education and training, essential skills, and market and business considerations, when presenting a job offer.
Salary is only one part of our total compensation and benefits package. Hermeus offers competitive salary and equity, unlimited PTO policy, paid parental leave, potential for year-end bonuses, and more!
100% employer-paid health care

U.S. EXPORT CONTROL COMPLIANCE STATUS
The person hired will have access to information and items subject to U.S. export controls, and therefore, must either be a “U.S. person” as defined by 22 C.F.R. § 120.62 or otherwise eligible for deemed export licensing. US persons include U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, lawful permanent residents (green card holders), and asylees and refugees with such status granted, not pending.
