The engineers of the mid-1900s put a man on the moon in eight years, designed and built planes and submarines from scratch in under three, and conceived of building things we wouldn’t even be able to dream up today.\nToday, the last of the engineers who imagined and built these systems are retiring. As they go, we lose not only the engineering knowledge gained from their decades of imagination and trial-and-error, but also the spirit that made that imagination possible.\nAmca is working day-in and day-out to restore America’s ability to engineer anything that our critical systems depend on, and reinvigorate the cycle of creation that allows imagination to shape physical reality. We rapidly develop and manufacture new critical components and subsystems required to build and sustain the planes, military vehicles, and core infrastructure America needs. By restoring the capability of our antiquated supply chains, we increase the country’s capacity to imagine and realize new systems, and make a physical world that looks very different from today.\nSoftware Engineer\nOverview\nAmca is hiring software engineering interns to build the systems that turn decades of engineering knowledge into structured, usable data. The work broadly falls into two areas: software that digitizes, labels, and organizes millions of technical drawings, designs, and engineering documents, and a custom software suite that makes engineers and factory teams faster across the factories and Protoshop.\nInterns work on real production problems with real users on the other end. The tools built here shape how quickly hardware gets designed, built, and shipped.\nResponsibilities\nBuild pipelines that ingest, digitize, label, and structure large volumes of technical drawings, CAD files, and engineering documentation\nDevelop internal tools that speed up engineering and manufacturing workflows across the factories and Protoshop, using data we've codified from our acquired factories or by observing the current practices of our factories. \nDesign and ship full stack products and features\nWork directly with engineers and production teams to understand their bottlenecks, turn them into software, measure the software’s impact, and improve product\nImprove the performance, reliability, and scalability of existing systems\nWrite clean, tested, well-documented pseudo-code and code and take part in code review\nBasic Qualifications\nCurrently pursuing a bachelor's or master's degree in computer science, computer or software engineering, mathematics, physics, or a related field\nUnderstand and experience using storage systems, cloud infrastructure, and front-end frameworks\nLearns quickly, picks up unfamiliar tools without hand-holding, can understand and write detailed documentation, and takes ownership of everything you build\nCommunicates clearly with both technical and non-technical teammates on plans, updates, and blockers\nPreferred Skills and Experience\nStrong fluency in using AI coding tools to build and ship efficiently, but does not rely on these tools to write code, nor trust these tools entirely to write flawless code. You are responsible for understanding every line an agent writes. \nStrong git habits, especially on shared repos, including clear commits, branching, pull requests, reviews\nExperience shipping full-stack features or applications to production, through an internship, project team, or personal project\nProficiency in one or more of TypeScript, React, Go, Python, or SQL\nHourly Pay Range\n$30—$50 USD\nThis position requires use of information which is subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). All applicants must be U.S. persons within the meaning of ITAR. ITAR defines a US person as: any individual who is granted U.S. citizenship; or. any individual who is granted U.S. permanent residence (\"Green Card\" holder); or. any individual who is granted status as a \"protected person\" under 8 U.S.C 1324b(a)(3).\nThe Advanced Manufacturing Company of America prohibits discrimination or harassment based on the following categories: race, color, religion, religious creed (including religious dress and grooming practices), national origin, ancestry, citizenship, physical or mental disability, medical condition (including cancer and genetic characteristics), genetic information, marital status, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding, or related medical conditions), gender, gender identity, gender expression, age (40 years and over), sexual orientation, veteran and/or military status, protected medical leaves (requesting or approved for leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act or the California Family Rights Act), domestic violence victim status, political affiliation, and any other status protected by state or federal law.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4900,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Design & Creative","Defense Manufacturing"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-16T01:33:12Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":39,"band":"fade","label":"Fading","p_open":1,"p_active":0.522,"p_room":0.75,"age_days":20,"expected_fill_days":24,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","win:late","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-20T05:45:00Z"},"pay":{"stated_usd_annual":100000,"is_top_pay":true},"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/amca-software-engineering-internship-summer-2027","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/amca-software-engineering-internship-summer-2027.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-21T02:35:23Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":3777,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-22T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":3780360},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=3780360"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Famca-software-engineering-internship-summer-2027"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Famca-software-engineering-internship-summer-2027"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Famca-software-engineering-internship-summer-2027"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/amca-software-engineering-internship-summer-2027\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Famca-software-engineering-internship-summer-2027"}]}
