We believe the future of the science and space exploration community depends on today’s students being energized and inspired. We practice mentoring on our staff and encourage cross-generational teamwork at every opportunity. We have senior engineers and scientists mentoring younger college graduates. We welcome college students for summer internships. We give high school students the chance to engage with our engineers for focused internships. And we invest in STEM events that broaden the understanding of younger-age students.

GES is comprised of many passionate, caring, experienced and talented individuals who bring their energy and commitment to success to the job every day. Our management team embodies our commitment to excellence by guiding the delivery of Space Flight Solutions to our customers with integrity.

The work we do matters. But the way we work is just as important. Because of this, our Principles of Conduct are an essential part of what sets us apart and what has earned the trust of our customers. They guide everything we do as a company and they start with the belief that the people who make up our team will always be our most valuable asset:

Our name “Genesis” speaks of origins and beginning. We approach every engineering challenge as opportunity for a powerful new beginning—a new solution, a new level of effectiveness, a new breakthrough in technology.  

We opened our doors in Lanham, Maryland, outside the gates of the Goddard Space Flight Center in 1993. From our inception, founder Robert Rashford wanted to build a company that would create high-tech solutions by unleashing the talents and passions of a highly trained team of engineers. Rashford himself has over 35 years of engineering experience. But more importantly he’s instilled in our team a commitment to work hard, do what is right, and always put the needs of our clients first. 

Decades later we’re still guided by the values of accountability and dependability. They aren’t just slogans for us. They’re principles we have staked our reputation on.  

Whether we’re prime or support as a subcontractor, we bring the same commitment to delivering the best product, at the best price, on the best schedule possible. 

At Genesis Engineering we understand the pressure you feel to meet project milestones and budgets. It’s challenging to find high-quality solutions that are both cost-effective and efficient—with partners you can trust.

Our vision to be a premier aerospace and technology provider has been sustained for over 30 years by a commitment to deliver the best product, at the best price, on the best schedule.

In all we do, our goal is to deliver excellence for your mission. We do this by combining three elements.
