Job Description

Hermeus is a high-speed aircraft manufacturer focused on the rapid design, build, and test of high-Mach and hypersonic aircraft for the national interest. We are seeking a Components Manufacturing Engineer to be the first of its kind at our facility — responsible for establishing, developing, and scaling advanced manufacturing processes for critical hardware. You’ll take full ownership of component fabrication from concept through production, driving design-for-manufacture, process development, and continuous improvement across a wide range of precision mechanical systems.

Job Responsibility

  • Develop and own end-to-end manufacturing processes for complex mechanical and precision components (e.g., machined, welded, or formed metallic parts and subassemblies)
  • Drive design for manufacturability (DFM) by collaborating directly with design and development engineers from concept through release
  • Define and optimize process parameters for laser welding, precision machining, assembly, and inspection of critical components
  • Lead first-article builds, troubleshoot process non-conformances, and implement permanent corrective actions
  • Own planning, operations, and scheduling for the sheet metal shop, ensuring on-time delivery of high-quality hardware
  • Design and procure production tooling, fixtures, and test equipment to improve quality, repeatability, and throughput
  • Support technicians and specialists on the production floor by troubleshooting issues, resolving non-conformances, and implementing corrective actions in a timely manner
  • Establish and maintain process documentation, including manufacturing plans, work instructions, and control plans
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with quality, supply chain, and test teams to ensure consistent component performance and reliability
  • Develop data-driven approaches for process control, capability analysis, and yield improvement
  • Serve as the technical authority for component manufacturing, mentoring technicians and shaping the facility’s future manufacturing capabilities

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Materials Science, or related field
  • 3+ years of hands-on experience in precision component manufacturing (aerospace, defense, or high-performance hardware industries preferred)
  • Demonstrated experience with CNC machining, welding (TIG/laser/e-beam), or additive manufacturing of complex metallic components
  • Proven ability to develop, validate, and scale new manufacturing processes from concept through production
  • Strong understanding of GD&T, tolerance stack-ups, and material behavior under manufacturing processes
  • Hands-on experience in a lab or production environment, with a focus on process development, fixture design, or failure analysis
  • Must be willing to be hands-on on the manufacturing floor daily
  • Ability to lift up to 25 lbs and work around industrial equipment as needed
  • Extended or flexible hours may be required to meet critical program milestones

Nice to have

  • Experience with advanced welding methods (laser, e-beam, resistance, or friction stir)
  • Knowledge of aerospace-grade materials such as aluminum, titanium, Inconel, and stainless steel
  • Familiarity with DFM/DFA principles, SPC, and Lean manufacturing practices
  • Experience transitioning R&D hardware into low-rate or full-rate production environments
  • Strong CAD/CAM proficiency (NX, CATIA, SolidWorks, or Fusion 360)
  • Comfortable working in a startup or rapid-development environment requiring broad ownership and adaptability

What we offer

  • Competitive salary and equity
  • Unlimited PTO policy
  • Paid parental leave
  • Potential for year-end bonuses
  • 100% employer-paid health care
  • 401k & Retirement Plans
  • Weekly Paid Office Lunches
  • End of Year Bonuses
  • Fully stocked breakrooms
  • Stock Options
