Project Manager; Forgings

ATI builds and manages collaborations that conducts research and development of new technologies to solve our nation's most pressing challenges. Our collaborations are custom-built teams of organizations from industry and academia that develop novel technologies for the federal government. Traditionally, these processes are complicated and burdensome. That's where ATI comes in. We simplify and streamline processes to make it all work.

When you work at ATI, you become a part of something larger than yourself. Our collective work—no matter what department or division you work in—ultimately enables the warfighter, saves lives, and diversifies the industrial base. At our core, ATI is a service organization. We are in service to others; it’s what we do, and it’s who we are.
