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.

The Business Development team at Hermeus is seeking a dynamic, technically fluent professional to expand our engagement within the U.S. Navy (USN), broader Department of War. We are looking for a leader with an established Navy/DoW network who understands naval aviation requirements, hypersonics, rapid prototyping, and the Pentagon’s decision-making ecosystem—and who can convert those relationships into meaningful partnerships, programs, and contracts. 
 
For Hermeus, leveraging high-Mach and hypersonic aircraft to support Navy operational needs, future air wing concepts, test infrastructure, training, ISR modernization, and autonomous experimentation is a critical step on the path to reinvigorating the nations deterrent posture. We want all-stars who can represent our vision to naval stakeholders, identify emerging Navy requirements, and work seamlessly with our engineering and product teams as they build the world’s fastest aircraft. 
 
We are building a diverse team with one overarching mission—accelerate government partnerships to advance high-Mach and hypersonic aviation across the Navy and the joint force. Join us and help build the world’s fastest airplanes.
