About This Role

There was a time when all of America believed that the future of the physical world could be radically different. The engineers of the mid-1900s put a man on the moon in eight years, designed and built planes and submarines from scratch in under three, and conceived of building things we wouldn’t even be able to dream up today.

Today, the last of the engineers who imagined and built these systems are retiring. As they go, we lose not only the engineering knowledge gained from their decades of imagination and trial-and-error, but also the spirit that made that imagination possible.

Amca is working day-in and day-out to restore America’s ability to engineer anything that our critical systems depend on, and reinvigorate the cycle of creation that allows imagination to shape physical reality. We rapidly develop and manufacture new critical components and subsystems required to build and sustain the planes, military vehicles, and core infrastructure America needs. By restoring the capability of our antiquated supply chains, we increase the country’s capacity to imagine and realize new systems, and make a physical world that looks very different from today.

Overview:

Amca is looking for sharp, high-energy interns to join our Business Operations team. You will work directly on the workflows that keep Amca's pipeline moving — supporting business development, tracking opportunities, and helping execute on new growth. This is a fast-paced, high-ownership role where your work will have direct impact on the company's growth. You will collaborate cross-functionally with program management, engineering, and production teams to help identify and execute new business opportunities.
