SkillBridge Fellowship - Transitioning Military

Program Overview

MTSI proudly participates in the Department of War (DoW) SkillBridge Program, offering eligible transitioning service members the chance to gain civilian work experience while completing their military service. This posting reflects ongoing interest in MTSI’s SkillBridge Program and is not tied to a specific opening. Opportunities depend on eligibility, timing, location, MTSI’s hiring needs, and the availability of an appropriate training experience.

Founded in 1993 by two retired U.S. Air Force engineers, MTSI is a 100% employee‑owned company with veterans comprising roughly 40% of the workforce. The company values the experience, perspective, and mission focus that transitioning service members bring.

Pathways to Participate

• Hiring Our Heroes (HoH) Fellowships: Participate through scheduled HoH fellowship cohorts.
• Off‑Cycle Fellowships: Participate directly with MTSI outside of the HoH cohort schedule, providing greater flexibility for different military transition timelines.

How SkillBridge Works at MTSI

• Submit an application providing details about your military experience, career interests, preferred location, transition timeline, and other relevant information.
• MTSI’s Talent Acquisition team reviews the information and contacts you when your background and timing align with potential opportunities.
• If alignment exists, MTSI determines whether an appropriate team and approved training experience can support both your transition goals and potential future roles.
• When selected and approved, the fellowship allows you to translate military experience into a civilian environment while developing new skills, relationships, and experience.
• The program is designed to identify strong potential for fellows to continue with MTSI as full‑time employees after military service.
