Military Fellowship Program: Electrical Engineer

Overview

SNC's Military Fellowship Program partners with programs such as Skill Bridge and Hiring Our Heroes to provide fellowship opportunities to service members transitioning to the civilian workforce. The fellowship includes up to six months of on-the-job industry training for eligible service members, during which participants gain valuable work experience in the civilian sector and build professional networks as they prepare for full‑time civilian work.

The program is only available to individuals currently serving on active duty; it is not for veterans who have already separated from the military.

Electrical Engineers at Sierra Nevada Corporation research, design, develop, test, certify, deploy and improve cutting‑edge products and services. The role involves conceptualizing and designing new products and processes throughout the product lifecycle, from analog and digital electronic circuit card assemblies to fully integrated systems. The Mission Solutions and Technologies team provides affordable, turn‑key command/control, communications, integrated ISR, force protection and security solutions worldwide, supporting the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, commercial and international customers across air, land, sea, space and cyber domains.
