Space Jobs for Propulsion Engineers in Alabama

Today, Blue Origin (13 roles), Amentum (3 roles), Leidos (1 role), Lockheed Martin (1 role), Voyager Technologies (1 role). The table above lists every employer with a role open in Alabama.

Most are in Huntsville (18), Hunstville (1), as the postings name their sites. A role that names several sites counts at each.

The roles here that state pay post a median $151k/yr, with typical pay from $145k–$249k/yr; 50.8% of Alabama's postings state their pay at all, which our research on where space jobs are compares state by state. Alabama has no law requiring a pay range in job postings, so a posting there can leave pay out (each state's law beside its postings). For reference, the 5,690 aerospace engineers working in Alabama, in any industry, earn a median $128k/yr (BLS, May 2025, as our research sets beside the open roles).

Of the 115 space postings in Alabama whose text we read, 100% are limited to US citizens or US persons and 17.4% name a security clearance, by our research on who can apply, which compares every state. Each posting states its own rule, often citing export control under ITAR or the EAR.

We read each employer's own job board every hour. A role is listed here when it is a US role and its own location line names a place in Alabama, by the same reading as our research on where space jobs are, and its title names the profession by the same rule as the page for propulsion engineers; remote roles that name no state are on the remote jobs page.
