Fuel and lube systems. Structural hardware. Component testing. Assembly processes built from scratch. At Boom, you'll own some of the hardest mechanical engineering challenges and real hardware - on day one of your career. We hire a small number of early-career engineers and give them a level of ownership that most companies reserve for people with a decade of experience. You won't be supporting someone else's design or waiting your turn. You'll be the engineer of record on systems that matter, making real decisions, and seeing your work turn into hardware. We're building two engines at once: Superpower, a 42 MW gas turbine for AI data centers, and Symphony, a medium-bypass turbofan designed for Mach 1.7 cruise. That means designing mechanical systems that can withstand extreme temperatures, demanding operating conditions, and rapid iteration cycles. There isn't a playbook for what we're building. You'll help create it. This job is demanding and rewarding. This job isn't...
