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. Working directly with the Department of Defense, Hermeus delivers capabilities that will ensure that our nation, and our allies, maintain an asymmetric advantage over any and all potential adversaries. 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.

Job Responsibility:

  • 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

Requirements:

  • 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
  • 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

Nice to have:

  • 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
What we offer:
  • 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
  • Paid Parental Leave
