Newly funded Defense, aerospace & space companies
US Defense, aerospace & space companies that just filed to raise with the SEC, newest first, each linked to its source on EDGAR. New money is what pays for new headcount, and the filing usually lands before any announcement.
44 Defense, aerospace & space filings, each with its own page.
One of the 44 companies in this view was hiring on its own public job board when we last read it, 25 open roles in all. We count open roles, not people, and no count means we found no board, not that nobody is hiring.
