Our Difference

Built for Specialized Aerospace Hiring

Screening processes designed for technical, regulated, and hard-to-fill aerospace roles — not recycled from a general staffing playbook.

Fast Shortlist Turnaround

We move quickly on urgent aerospace roles and share qualified profiles based on your hiring timeline and technical needs. Most shortlists are delivered within a few business days.

Clearance-Aware Hiring Support

We support hiring for roles that require security awareness, defense experience, or cleared candidate consideration — supporting Secret, Top Secret, and TS/SCI pipelines.

Structured Technical Screening

Candidates are reviewed for role fit, technical background, communication quality, and project relevance before any profile reaches your desk.

Specialized Aerospace Talent Reach

We recruit across engineering, production, quality, avionics, program management, and defense functions — not just whatever comes up in a generic job board search.

90-Day Placement Commitment

We stay involved after placement with structured 30, 60, and 90-day check-ins. If the placement isn't working, replacement support is initiated at no additional cost.

Compliance-Aware Approach

We keep ITAR, export control, and regulated environment requirements in mind when sourcing for defense and aerospace roles — protecting your program and your compliance posture.

Engagement Models

Choose the Right Aerospace Staffing Model

Select a staffing model based on your timeline, budget, and hiring plan. Every model includes our 90-day placement support commitment.

Program surges & short-term gaps

Contract Staffing

Bring in aerospace engineers for short-term needs, delivery spikes, or program-based support without long-term overhead. Flexible terms, structured handover.

De-risked permanent hiring

Contract-to-Hire

Start with a contract engagement and convert strong performers into permanent team members when the fit is right. Reduces long-term hiring risk.

Get Started
Full-time team building

Direct Placement

We source and screen candidates for full-time aerospace roles where long-term retention matters. Success-fee model — you pay when the right hire joins.

Get Started
High-volume program ramp-up

Managed Team Staffing

Build a dedicated hiring stream for larger programs, multi-role ramp-ups, or specialized delivery needs. We manage the pipeline end-to-end.
