Engineering innovation isn’t just about having a great idea, it’s about having the right ecosystem to turn that idea into a viable reality. 🚀 Tonight, David Ochi gave me the honor of participating as a coach for the workshop for the 30 second pitch of the UCI Samueli School of Engineering Beall Butterworth Product Development Competition. As a proud Anteater, this event always hits incredibly close to home. My journey with this program started years ago when my team won during my very first year participating as a mentor. That experience hooked me, and I’ve been proud to serve as a judge for the last 13 years. Watching the pitches over the years, I am absolutely blown away. The engineering students at UC Irvine are taking their products further than I have ever seen. Thanks to the rapid advancement of technology, especially with the support of AI, these teams are building sophisticated hardware and software solutions at an unprecedented pace. 💡⚙️ This competition is an absolute masterclass for any engineering student. It teaches the most critical skill in product development: how to find a real-world problem and engineer a truly viable solution. The most beautiful part of this program is the outcome. Yes, we will be rewarding the winning teams with a big cash prize at the end, but more importantly, we are equipping them with the mentorship, support, and guidance they need to succeed as real-world founders. Always proud to give back to this amazing community. Zot Zot Zot! 🐜💙💛 #UCIrvine #Engineering #ZotZotZot #BeallButterworthCompetition #ProductDevelopment

I'm going to say something most recruiters won't. Q1 2026 humbled this industry. We watched H-1B candidates do everything right and still lose the lottery. We watched aerospace engineers get caught in program freezes they didn't cause. We watched automotive talent get restructured out of legacy OEM roles the same week EV startups were begging for those exact skills. This quarter tested everyone. But underneath all of it? The bones of something better are forming. Here's what Q1 actually told us: 💡 The candidates hardest to find are the ones companies need most: cleared Intel, AI/ML engineers, SIGINT analysts, EV powertrain specialists, aerospace structures, and advanced manufacturing. Supply is near zero. Demand compounding. If you hold those credentials right now, you are the market. 💡 H-1B is wage-weighted now. Slow on comp? You lose. TN-eligible Canadian or Mexican engineer? Your lane just opened wide placements up 62% this quarter alone. 💡 88% of companies use AI in hiring. 74% still can't find qualified people. The bottleneck was never the ATS; it was the human judgment layer you tried to automate away. 💡 Reshoring is real. Automotive is caught between the ICE wind-down and EV ramp-up. Aerospace is losing a generation of senior engineers to retirement. Semiconductor fabs and defense supply chains are screaming for talent from coast to coast. This isn't a slow quarter for engineering. This is a decade-long talent debt coming due. --- To the engineer or specialist waiting for a sign: Q2 budgets are live. Programs are launching. Move now. To the hiring manager heading into Q2 with open reqs: Your competition is already calling my candidates. --- I recruit across North America, with cleared Intel, aerospace, automotive, defense engineering, advanced manufacturing, tech & healthcare. From Detroit to Dallas. Toronto to Tijuana. Seattle to Huntsville. 📩 DM me or drop a comment. Real conversations. Real placements. No fluff. #Q12026 #EngineeringJobs #AerospaceEngineering #AutomotiveIndustry #EVJobs #AdvancedManufacturing #ClearedTalent #H1BVisa #TNVisa #NorthAmericaHiring #HiringNow #Recruiting #DefenseContracting #ReshoreAmerica #JobSearch

Serious question for the #aerospace / #space community: What will matter more in the next 5 years for UAV systems, better autonomy models or better command-and-control integration? As we continue to push AI performance, it raises an important consideration: without seamless integration into existing aerospace infrastructure, does it even matter? Dan Goldin your insights would be greatly appreciated.

Huuuuge week for investment and funding in the future of Aerospace, EV and Robotics: Faraday Future secured $105M to accelerate its electric vehicle roadmap. Firestorm raised $47M to scale its deployable, 3D-printed drone manufacturing solution. Lucid Motors announced a $300M partnership with Uber and Nuro, to deploy 20,000 Lucid Gravity robotaxis equipped with Nuro Driver. Hadrian closed a $260M Series C to expand its robotics-powered aerospace manufacturing facilities in Arizona. The State of Michigan committed new funding to scale AAM initiatives, from eVTOLs to urban air systems. Across sectors, these moves signal a shared trend: strategic capital fueling autonomy, electrification, and next-gen manufacturing at scale. Which of these do you see making the fastest impact in the next few years? #AdvancedAirMobility #Robotics #EV #Aerospace #TechFunding

In #SpaceTech, progress is rarely limited by ambition or engineering. The strain shows up later, when programs accelerate, capital stacks tighten, and leadership teams are asked to operate with less margin for error than their systems were designed for. The Global Space Technology High-Performance Playbook was developed as a practical reference for navigating that moment. It draws on 70+ years of collective insights from 500+ Executive and Board placements to examine how leadership predictability and operating structure influence execution as complexity increases. It's available on the Thomas & Taylor Search Partners' website as a complimentary resource: https://lnkd.in/giue5yPx #ExecutiveTalent #BoardLeadership #StrategicTalentAcquisition #NextGenExecutiveSearch #TTSP

✈️ Aerospace Hiring Trends I’m Seeing in 2026 Working closely with aerospace and defense clients, I’ve been noticing some clear trends in hiring that candidates should be aware of: 🔹 Systems Engineering is in high demand – especially professionals with experience in MBSE (Model-Based Systems Engineering) and tools like Cameo/SysML 🔹 Thermal & Mechanical expertise matters – engineers with hands-on experience in thermal systems, environmental control systems, and testing are highly sought after 🔹 Cross-functional skills are key – candidates who can bridge design, testing, and systems integration stand out 🔹 Compliance knowledge is a big plus – familiarity with standards like AS9100, ISO, and defense regulations is increasingly important 🔹 Hands-on experience wins – especially in testing, hardware, and real-world system validation 📌 If you’re an engineer or systems professional in aerospace, aligning your experience with these areas can significantly improve your market opportunities. I’m currently working on several aerospace roles—feel free to reach out if you’re exploring new opportunities or want insights into the market. #Aerospace #SystemsEngineering #MechanicalEngineering #MBSE #HiringTrends #EngineeringJobs #DefenseJobs Abhay Singh Sakshi N.

Recently at The Ortus Club’s ‘The HR Leaders' Dinner Roundtable’ in New York City, AMS’s Jonathan Kestenbaum and Jeffrey Anderson led a conversation on "Ethical AI in Hiring". We’re leading the charge in ethical and responsible AI. Our industry-first Global Ethical AI Charter sets the standard for ethical use of AI in talent acquisition, including non-discrimination and human intervention. Establishing vital standards and a framework, the Charter was signed and enacted by members of our AI Board, comprising of distinguished AI ethicists and independent professionals from a wide range of industries including business, human resources, academia and not-for-profit.
