Command to the helmsman from Jean-Luc Picard

Ross

I believe the answer is:

engage

(Other definitions for engage that I've seen before include "Hire for work" , "Employ or get involved in battle" , "Take on - reserve - promise" , "Employ as a worker" , "Take someone on as a worker" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
