Hermeus is a Los Angeles–based defense startup developing hypersonic unmanned aircraft.
Hermeus is a venture-backed defense aviation company reclaiming the lost art of rapid iterative prototyping to build the fastest aircraft in the world today. By prioritizing relentless hardware iteration, we deliver high-speed systems at the pace of the modern battlefield. We work with the Department of War to provide the high-speed capabilities our nation and its allies need to maintain a durable, asymmetric advantage. About the Role Hermeus is seeking a hands-on, highly motivated New Grad Manufacturing Engineer to support the development, fabrication, and integration of advanced aerospace hardware, including weld-related processes, across our R&D and prototype manufacturing environments. In this role, you will work closely with design, manufacturing, test, tooling, and integration teams to help bring complex welded assemblies from concept to hardware. This is an ideal opportunity for a recent graduate who has strong hands-on experience through internships, research, capstone projects, student competition teams, or manufacturing environments and is excited to build, test, learn quickly, and contribute directly to flight hardware development.
