Launch Your Career Into Higher Orbit!

Are you determined to work with Space Programs?

As an Amentum Space Exploration Division (ASED) intern, you will work alongside engineers and scientists on hardware development, payload integration & operations, laboratory & test operations, modeling & simulation, space environments, scientific research and propulsion systems for programs like Human Landing Systems, Space Launch Systems and the International Space Station!

Internship provides an opportunity to gain valuable work experience related to your field of study. You will be engaged in paid, full-time work that allows you to apply classroom theories to space-flight missions. Your experience will also help you determine whether a career with the Space Program is right for you. If that is the case, your new skills and knowledge will help you begin your career at a higher level of responsibility and productivity.

POSITION DESCRIPTION:

Provide electrical engineering support for developing, designing, and testing of Thrust Vector Control electromechanical actuators and associated avionics specific to the Mars Ascent Vehicle (MAV) and development of an active inertial load simulation capability. Duties will cover data inputs specific to the spacecraft vector control system.
