About the Company

Amentum

Government engineering and technical services provider

Amentum provides technical and engineering services to government agencies to support high-stakes missions such as space launch, nuclear cleanup, and military operations. Its offerings combine workforce, engineering, and mission-support capabilities across the full lifecycle—from planning and design to operations and sustainment—delivered as contracted services. The company differentiates itself through scale and breadth: formed from a spin-off and expanded by acquiring DynCorp and PAE, and later merging with Jacobs’ Critical Mission Solutions and Cyber & Intelligence units, making it one of the largest government services contractors with about 53,000 employees and a public listing (AMTM). Its main goal is to help the U.S. and its allies achieve mission success for critical national programs by providing comprehensive, reliable government-focused technical services.
