About the role

The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) seeks engineers and scientists to advance aerospace and thermal design for defense-related propulsion and hypersonic applications. You will work within a dynamic, collaborative team on challenging environments from hypersonic to space systems. Applicants should hold a Master’s in a related field and be prepared to obtain security clearances. The lab emphasizes innovation, continuous learning, and strong cross-group partnerships across

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
