Hermeus is an aerospace and defense technology company founded to radically accelerate air travel by delivering hypersonic aircraft. The company aims to develop hypersonic aircraft quickly and cost-effectively by integrating hardware-rich, iterative development with modern computing and autonomy. This approach has been validated through design, build, and test of the company’s first combined turbojet-ramjet engine and is now being scaled through its first flight vehicle program, Quarterhorse. Hermeus is also developing Darkhorse — an uncrewed hypersonic aircraft designed to deliver unique asymmetric capabilities to the warfighter.

Hermeus is seeking a Legal Counsel to provide comprehensive legal supporting areas such as contracting, regulatory compliance, and intellectual property. The ideal candidate will have experience drafting and negotiating contracts with commercial and government entities, as well as a strong understanding of compliance issues such as export controls (ITAR and EAR), FAA regulations, and government acquisition rules (FAR and DFARS). This role also involves developing policies, managing legal operations, collaborating with outside counsel, and conducting training to ensure company-wide compliance and risk awareness.
