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.
The Manufacturing Team at Hermeus are the boots on the ground. We have a vast array of experiences ranging from welding, additive, tube bending, machining, integration, and avionics. We are a lean team who are responsible for building a vehicle that will fly. We provide crucial design feedback to our engineering team and can rapidly iterate on design and assembly.
As a Fluids Integration Technician, you’ll be responsible for assembling, installing, and testing complex fluid and electromechanical systems in support of flight and propulsion hardware. You will work hands-on with hydraulic tubing, mechanical sub-assemblies, and pressurized systems while collaborating closely with engineering and operations teams. This role is ideal for a highly skilled technician who thrives in fast-paced environments, is fluent in reading technical schematics, and is passionate about building and improving flight-critical systems.
