Posting activity over time

Last 30 completed days: 1 newly observed listings, 0 returned listings, and 2 removals. Net recorded posting movement: -1.

Daily observations and definitions
Dates use UTC. Newly observed means first discovered by Cleared Colorado and still active at daily capture. Returned means a previously removed listing reappeared. Removal means a recorded source-backed removal; it does not establish that a position was filled. The live count above can differ from the most recent completed-day count. Changes can reflect our source coverage and discovery as well as employer posting activity.

Company background and Colorado locations
What United Launch Alliance does in Colorado
ULA’s Colorado headquarters brings together program management, engineering, test, and mission support for its launch business. The company describes this headquarters region as Denver, while its visitor information identifies the facilities in Centennial. Those functions support launch missions carried out from Florida and California and rocket manufacturing, assembly, and integration in Alabama.
Pueblo adds hands-on launch-hardware work. ULA’s Propulsion Shop and Test Facility includes fabrication, an agile test laboratory, and a Dynamics Environments Lab. Its published capabilities span machining, welding, assembly, and tests involving pressure, vibration, shock, temperature, and structural loads, supported by instrumentation and data analysis. Colorado therefore includes both headquarters engineering and specialized physical test work.
