Space Jobs for Welders in Alabama

Today, Blue Origin (12 roles), Amentum (5 roles), United Launch Alliance (4 roles). The table above lists every employer with a role open in Alabama.

Most are in Huntsville (17), Decatur (4), as the postings name their sites. A role that names several sites counts at each.

Too few of the roles here state their pay to give a median: 50.8% of Alabama's postings state pay, 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 13,570 welders, cutters, solderers and brazers working in Alabama, in any industry, earn a median $48.5k/yr (BLS, May 2025, the public record).

Of the 474 space postings in Alabama whose text we read, 72.8% are limited to US citizens or US persons and 53.8% 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 welders; remote roles that name no state are on the remote jobs page.
