Structures Integration Technician

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 Structures Integration Technician, you will play a critical role in the hands-on assembly, integration, and testing of flight and ground hardware. This role requires someone equally comfortable working across structures, fluids, inventory, and manufacturing tasks, as needed. You’ll be expected to bring deep technical expertise, excellent judgment, and a self-starting attitude to a highly collaborative team in a fast-paced, low-oversight environment.

We’re seeking someone who’s open-minded, adaptive, and eager to contribute across domains to help bring complex systems from concept to reality.

• 3+ years of experience in aerospace, startup, or fast-paced prototyping/manufacturing environments.

• Demonstrated experience in both flight hardware assembly and production support, including system-level troubleshooting.

• Ability to work across a wide range of technical areas including fluids, inventory support, structural assembly, and manufacturing.

• Strong proficiency with engineering drawings, schematics, GD&T, and hands-on fabrication.

• Familiarity with shop tools, rigging, GSE, and component-level ATP/proof testing.

• Highly self-directed with a track record of working independently and taking initiative without constant oversight.

• Strong understanding and practice of 5S, lean manufacturing, and continuous improvement principles.
• A&P license preferred

• Willingness to travel for offsite test or build support
• Take full ownership of work orders, quality buyoffs, and material handling, including occasional support in inventory and materials control when needed.

• Execute a wide variety of mechanical and electromechanical sub-assemblies, as well as full system-level integration tasks with minimal instruction.

• Perform critical structural operations: drilling, reaming, countersinking, deburring, and installing precision fasteners per spec.

• Install, troubleshoot, and maintainfluid, pneumatic, and electromechanical systems, including leak checks, ATP, and light electrical harnessing.

• Provide cross-functional support across departments—whether that’s jumping in on a build, troubleshooting a test setup, or organizing work centers.

• Build and refine custom tooling and fixtures for one-off builds or repeatable operations, contributing to build readiness and safety.

• Deliver in-the-moment engineering feedback, and proactively redline work instructions or flag inefficiencies to continuously improve processes.

• Drive process improvement initiatives—applying your generalist lens to find cycle time reductions, streamline flows, and simplify complex tasks.

• Operate independently in a dynamic environment where priorities change rapidly; bring a flexible, "do what’s needed" mindset every day.
