Veterans Jobs

Transitioning from the military wasn't easy, but Cummins recognized my potential and offered me a role where I could grow. The veteran community here has been invaluable, and I encourage other veterans to research companies like Cummins that offer support programs like Skillbridge.
I've experienced firsthand the company's unwavering support for veterans. Cummins has allowed me to maintain my career and care for my family. They offer different support systems for veterans, enabling me to pay it forward by
assisting other veterans in need. Cummins understands that hiring veterans enriches your workforce and provides them with a renewed sense of purpose and belonging post-military service.
I've been with Cummins for 13 years, currently specializing in Air Handling, supporting different business units and engineers. Contributing to engine development programs has been a proud achievement, demonstrating the
impact of our work worldwide. I'm proud to be a veteran and know firsthand the skills and values we bring.
