Create standard work instructions, mentor production staff, and use data and Lean principles to ensure safe, stable, repeatable, and efficient operations. The role requires shop-floor engagement and travel to China for business, including extended trips of up to 90 days annually.

Designs, analyzes, prototypes, tests, and validates mechanical components and assemblies for aircraft propulsion power converters. Responsibilities include 3D CAD modeling, thermal and structural analysis, electronics packaging, vibration and EMI management, fixture design, troubleshooting, failure investigation, and cross-functional collaboration through production. The role applies mechanical engineering principles across structures, fluids, thermal management, materials, and electromechanical systems.

Develop and verify safety-critical embedded C++ software for aircraft battery management systems and battery ground support chargers. Responsibilities include battery monitoring, protection, diagnostics, charging, thermal management, communications, system integration, architecture, roadmap planning, requirements, certification documentation, HIL testing, debugging high-voltage systems, and mentoring engineers. The role collaborates across software, hardware, battery, systems, algorithms, aircraft, and operations teams.

Develop and integrate multidisciplinary ground support equipment for VTOL aircraft, including electrical, mechanical, hydronic, embedded, and software subsystems. Responsibilities include component selection, prototype assembly, system testing, certification support, root-cause analysis, scripting, technical documentation, and troubleshooting field deployments. The role requires strong electrical and mechanical fundamentals, embedded C/C++ and Python skills, networking knowledge, CAD proficiency, schematic experience, and hands-on laboratory debugging.

Leads public affairs and defense communications supporting policy, regulatory, government, and defense initiatives. Develops communications strategies, messaging, press materials, executive briefings, and rapid-response communications. Partners with government affairs, legal, defense, and executive teams; builds media and stakeholder relationships; prepares leaders for public engagements; monitors policy developments; and measures communications effectiveness. The role requires strong writing, federal policy knowledge, sound judgment, and experience in regulated industries.

Supports manufacturing process development, vehicle electrical and mechanical system assembly, production planning, tooling, work instructions, and shop-floor issue resolution. Collaborates with design and production teams on prototypes, first-article manufacturing, nonconforming parts, root-cause investigations, and continuous improvement. The role also provides manufacturing feedback on engineering definitions and helps improve quality, manufacturability, safety, and production efficiency.

Own the design and development of cryogenic tank vacuum shells for liquid hydrogen storage systems. Responsibilities include structural and thermal design, sealing, CAD and drawing release, hand calculations, analysis, material selection, test planning, hardware builds, troubleshooting, and cross-functional collaboration. The role requires hands-on mechanical engineering expertise in aerospace or other high-performance hardware environments, with emphasis on composites, cryogenic applications, manufacturability, and design-build-test execution.

Develops manufacturing processes for flight-critical wire harnesses and electromechanical interconnection systems. Responsibilities include creating work instructions, designing assembly tools and test fixtures, supporting shop-floor harness installation, troubleshooting production issues, ensuring quality and standards compliance, implementing error-proofing methods, and coordinating equipment maintenance and calibration. The role collaborates across engineering, manufacturing, integration, technicians, and vendors in an aerospace production environment.

DoD SkillBridge interns gain civilian work experience during the final 180 days of military service. Placements may be available across flight operations, aerospace and software engineering, aircraft maintenance, manufacturing, government affairs, supply chain, logistics, IT, and cybersecurity, depending on candidate interests, prior experience, and business needs.
