BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – The Lockheed Martin Talent Acquisition team is kicking off a new High School Internship Program for several Lockheed Martin Space locations and selected the Lockheed Martin Fleet Ballistic Missile Program at Cape Canaveral as a participating site.

Rockledge High’s Karissa Burkhart, Titusville High’s Kyle Bramblett and Viera High’s Zachary Lannon have been selected to work a nine-week paid summer cohort program 25-30 hours a week in the position disciplines of Manufacturing Engineering, Systems Engineering and Software Engineering.

Ten schools in the Brevard County area were asked to identify their top two students and have them apply to the opportunities.

Applicants had their resumes reviewed by Lockheed Martin managers and those whose qualifications were a match were invited to interview.

The interns will be doing relevant STEM-focused work and will have opportunities to network, learn and participate in employee and community engagement events.

At the end of the summer, they will be tasked to do a presentation to their managers about their experience. The positions will start on June 10 and the assignment will end August 9.
