For more than 25 years, Aptima's mission has been to improve and optimize performance in mission-critical, technology-intensive settings. We apply deep expertise in how humans think, learn, and perform to today's challenges. Whether for fighter pilots functioning in the cockpit, medical staff in the ICU, or teams collaborating across distributed networks, our solutions:
Ensure synergy between humans, the technologies they use, and the organizations within which they operate
Enhance productivity through human-AI teaming, unobtrusive measurement, data analytics, and intelligent interfaces
Accelerate learning, training, and readiness with precision learning that is customized, personalized, and efficient
Why Aptima?
At Aptima, our culture is founded on three principles that our founders planted and our staff have embraced: innovation, impact, and empathy. At our core is innovative research and development in an area that most engineering firms ignore: the human component. But innovation without application is navel-gazing-our aim is to impact the world in meaningful ways by brining those innovations to light.
We encourage entrepreneurial and creative efforts, and provide a work environment that promotes excellence through an emphasis on continuing education and professional publication. Teamwork, collaboration, and an unrelenting focus on the customer are integral to our corporate culture. Work hard. Take care of each other. Lead by example. Accept others for who they are. So while the world knows us as a company that is moving humans, technology, and AI forward, we think of ourselves as something more.
