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.

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.
