ATK Operations hires professionals from widely diverse backgrounds:
ATK has manufacturing operations across the U.S. where we produce the most innovative and technologically advanced products in this industry. To experience even one of these facilities gives you a feel for the broad scope of our capabilities, and the tremendous variety of opportunities each of them represents.
"In each new role I take on, I have more impact on the operation as a whole. It's amazing to be able to step back at the end of the day and feel you've accomplished something—when the measurements are clear, and you can see where you've changed things."
No matter what area of our business you work in—Armament Systems, Mission Systems, or Space Systems—you'll work with state-of-the-art technologies, and be exposed to new processes, new materials—even new ideas—before anyone else in our industry. Because of the diversity of products we create—and the processes involved—you'll have the opportunity to obtain a large amount of knowledge and develop new skill sets in a short amount of time. This is an environment that thrives on change and continuous improvement. It's how we keep our edge. It's why we not only encourage growth here, we expect it.
Quality and innovation drive everything we do in Operations. You get a sense of pride walking the production line, showing the product to a customer, or being present for product testing, and seeing the direct impact your work has on the finished product. But that's just one of the ways your contributions are rewarded here. At ATK, we recognize high performers by advancing them to roles where they can shine.
