Ursa Major was founded to address a critical shortfall in the U.S. industrial base and bring a new model to aerospace and defense systems: we design and manufacture the world’s leading propulsion systems for space, hypersonic applications, and missile systems.
Our products and technologies require an extraordinary team – a team that will mold tomorrow’s technologies while deploying today’s best. We are an intrinsically motivated team that has a passion for solving problems and empowering each other every day to develop our skills, knowing that there is always room for growth.
As an intern on a small, fast-moving team, you will be challenged with supporting the dynamic environment of propulsion design, development, manufacturing, test, and production of turbomachinery. You will develop a rich understanding of turbomachinery hardware and operation, while gaining hands-on experience solving difficult engineering problems. You will be given ownership and authority, so you can expect to make decisions and make a difference. The most successful candidates will demonstrate a strong work ethic, self-starting attitude, and thrive in a collaborative team environment.
Responsibilities:
- 3D Modeling & Design (tooling, assembly aids, static & rotating turbomachinery components)
- Engineering Drawings (2D drafting and geometric tolerancing per ASME Y14.5)
- Analysis (hand calcs, CFD (aero/hydro), structural)
- Rotor balancing
- Turbopump Assembly and Engine Integration
- Component leak and proof testing
- Test Support (powerpack/engine testing)
- Technical presentations
Required Qualifications:
- Background in mechanical, electrical, aerospace, or manufacturing engineering
- Must be an academic Senior or above by May 2025 (experience with Fluids, Mechanics of Materials, and other advanced classes)
- Excellent with first principle analysis of mechanical and/or fluid-based scenarios
- Hands-on build and/or test experience (design > build > test lifecycle of a project)
- Demonstrated teamwork and ability to communicate effectively in a group setting
- Drive to continuously improve technical and team skills
- Experience with CAD software is preferred
Colorado law requires us to tell you the base compensation range of this role, which is $29.00/hour, determined by your education, experience, knowledge, skills, and abilities. The salary range for this role is intentionally wide as we are evaluating individuals based on their unique experience and abilities to fit our needs.
