Manufacturing Engineer (Early Career, Exceptional Talent)
Quick Summary
Boom Supersonic is building the Overture supersonic airliner and the Superpower gas turbine — machines that require some of the most demanding manufacturing in modern industry.
- You've done something extraordinary early — built real hardware independently, led a competition team that actually competed, or done work in an internship that most engineers don't see for years
- You love building and want to work long, smart, and hard to create things that have real impact
- You want ownership, not guidance
- You get more energized when a problem gets harder, not less
- You're uncomfortable waiting for someone else to find the answer
- The shop floor sounds more interesting to you than a conference room
Responsibilities
~1 min read- →Own a defined piece of the manufacturing operation — engine assembly, machining, tooling, or process development — with real accountability for the outcome
- →Work directly with machinists, technicians, manufacturing engineers, and build engineers to solve problems on the floor, not from behind a desk
- →Build and improve the processes, work instructions, and tooling that allow complex hardware to come together reliably
- →Partner with design engineering to make parts easier to build
- →Iterate fast — figure out what's wrong, fix it, and move on to the next problem
- A degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Aerospace, or Industrial Engineering — or equivalent hands-on experience
- At least one internship or co-op where you made something real
- Hands-on manufacturing experience — time in a shop, on a line, or building hardware. This is required, not a nice-to-have
- Genuine curiosity about how things are made and how to best design for performance and manufacturability
- A track record of finishing hard things, inside school and outside of it
- You want ownership, not guidance
- You get more energized when a problem gets harder, not less
- You're comfortable not knowing the answer yet — and uncomfortable waiting for someone else to find it
- The shop floor sounds more interesting to you than a conference room
