The Aerospace Corporation is built on three core principles: a matrixed engineering structure, colocation with our customer to support programmatic and technical needs, and a parallel hierarchy with our government counterparts. Aerospace is seeking the next generation of program leaders to work closely with our customers and cross-functional teams to maximize our resources and expertise within our customer-facing groups.
