If you're ready to lay the foundations for a new era in space, embrace a culture of relentless learning and innovation, and contribute to a future where humanity's reach extends farther, Gravitics is the place for you. Let's build the future, together.
About the Role
We are seeking interns of all engineering disciplines to join our 2026 Summer class (May-August 2026). There will be no “busy work” or “coffee runs” here – our interns receive challenging and meaningful projects that make a difference both in the success of our mission and your education. You will partner with and learn from top professionals in the aerospace industry.
This will be a 10-12 week internship in our facility in the greater Seattle area. You’ll be in the same location where we are pulling in our structures, mechanisms, propulsion, life support systems, avionics, power systems, thermal systems, software, and associated testing. If you are driven, passionate, collaborative, hands on, and want to grow your technical skills – join us and help enable our expansion into the solar system.
About You
You’re a successful candidate if you are a giver, not a taker. You have an ability to make things happen. You are exceptional at several things, yet willing to take on efforts in areas of weakness. You don’t even know what “comfort zone” means.
