Intrepidus Talent Solutions

Aerospace and defense staffing, built by industry insiders.

Permanent and contract talent for the Space Coast, the LA Aerospace Corridor, and the companies that build America’s space and defense future.

What we do

We staff aerospace and defense companies. Two ways.

Direct-hire placement

Engineers, technicians, program managers, manufacturing leaders, and executives — placed permanently into the companies building launch vehicles, satellites, propulsion systems, avionics, and defense platforms.

Contingent for most searches. Retained for executive and hard-to-find roles. Pricing transparent before engagement.

Contract staffing

W-2 contract labor for program-driven hiring, surge capacity, engineering augmentation, and clearance-required roles. We carry the contractor, the insurance, and the compliance. One invoice, one point of accountability.

Cleared (Secret / TS / TS-SCI) contractor placement supported.

Why Intrepidus

Built by aerospace and defense TA insiders

Our partners came out of leadership roles at L3Harris and Northrop Grumman. We’ve hired aerospace and defense engineers, run contract labor for a Fortune 150 prime, and set enterprise TA strategy at a Fortune 500.

Local in both Space Coast and LA

Each region is led by a partner who lives in the market and worked inside a prime there. America’s two great aerospace and defense economies, served by people who are actually in them.

Direct-hire and contract under one firm

Most boutiques do one or the other. We do both, with real infrastructure behind each — so when your hiring need shifts from perm to contract or back, you don’t have to find a second partner.
