The path

Five steps into the work

We start with a direction, take stock of our skills and build from there. We can enter at the step that fits our experience.

01

Choose your class

We choose the kind of work we want to do: building sites, making hardware, running power and data centers, operating robots and fleets, or connecting design, software, AI and electronics. Every Class has hands-on routes alongside engineering, software and specialist work.

02

Choose your department

We choose a Department for its work, training and rank path. The Department quiz helps us find a starting point. We can change Department as our goals develop, with earned progress saved on our record.

03

Check your inventory

We take stock of our skills, experience, training and projects in the Personnel File, then compare that inventory with job requirements to see what is covered and what needs work. Sign in or join to open the private file.

04

Do the work

If our resume is thin, we can build our inventory through the Academy. We study lessons, work through exercises and pass tests to earn Mars Mining certificates of completion that we can add to our resume. These record learning, not a license, a professional credential or work experience. Project submissions are coming soon.

05

Land the job

We match our inventory, Department, and target career with confirmed openings on employers' own public career feeds, including contractors, utilities, manufacturers, and aerospace and defense tech builders. When none clear that bar, we look near the city or ZIP we enter, inside a radius we set, for real vacancies that build related experience. We do not use device location. Leads and search links stay labeled, and a quiet state stays quiet. The public jobs board is a separate daily pull across AI, robotics, space, energy and the trades. Employers make the hiring decisions.

The classes

Five Classes across trades, robotics, AI and frontier tech

Each Class mixes hands-on work with engineering, software, design and specialist routes. We can start on a crew, on a factory floor or at a keyboard, and keep building in the work we like.

On the board

Openings across the frontier

We pick early-career listings from skilled trades, robotics, AI, space and energy when our board has them, one company per card. Field labels come from job titles and can be wrong, so we check each posting for training, experience and work authorization. Listings include locations outside the US.

Before we start

What to expect

What is the difference between a Class and a Department?

A Class helps us explore a kind of work. We choose a Department inside it for specific skills, coursework, badges and ranks. Medical, Security and Command are shared specialties that support every Class.

What does it cost?

We keep the jobs board, Personnel File, matching, resume maker and Academy free. We do not charge to apply for a job.

Do I need to start as an engineer?

No. We can start as an apprentice, technician, operator or intern, or come in through software, data and design. Our Classes keep trade, technician, engineering and software routes side by side. Each employer sets its own requirements.

Where do the openings come from?

We collect listings from public careers pages at 64 companies for the jobs board. Signed-in search also reads a separate set of direct employer feeds and keeps leads apart from confirmed openings. We show the employer and link to its own page. Labels can be wrong, so we check the full posting before applying.

Is an Academy certificate a professional qualification?

We issue certificates of completion for studying the material and passing an online test. They do not replace a trade license, an apprenticeship, an OSHA card or other hands-on certification. Our ranks show learning progress, not employment.
