You will conduct assessments, analysis, and develop the formal program which Reliable and other Silicon Valley startups will use. Our Apprentice Program benefits high school students who want to explore aerospace and STEM by providing paid summer apprenticeships to them. This apprenticeship program adds value to startups and the local community by providing a platform for students to explore the different engineering disciplines impacting the future of STEM. Your contributions to the group will help shape our program in the short, medium, and long term.

The analysis and assessments you will produce will be important for future strategic and tactical corporate decisions.
