Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Design and analyze spacecraft motion control and actuation systems and moving mechanisms (bearings, gears, motors). Produce documentation and vendor specifications, support assembly and environmental testing, review test data, and recommend design or process changes for high-reliability aerospace applications.

Lead architecture and implementation of flight dynamics software for a large LEO/MEO satellite constellation. Develop cloud-based ground systems (AWS), CI/CD, containerized deployments, verification/validation, operations products and procedures, integrate with C2/mission planning/ground stations, support mission operations and training, and coordinate across spacecraft, ground, and program stakeholders.

Lead supplier qualification and development programs across Blue Origin's four-gate pathway, conduct on-site audits, own qualification files, drive capacity and yield improvements, partner with Supplier Quality, and maintain qualification data to ensure supplier readiness for production. Frequent supplier site travel and cross-functional coordination required.

Lead design and implementation of end-to-end mission planning for a multi-orbit satellite constellation. Define planning workflows, constraint frameworks, command sequences, activity templates, and timelines. Partner with software teams to integrate planning products, support test rehearsals and real-time operations, and mentor junior planners. Ensure operational readiness through simulation, validation, and cross-functional representation.

Lead definition, design, and delivery of production-ready automated manufacturing systems. Engage stakeholders, develop simulations and cost/schedule estimates, drive supplier selection, and own projects through commissioning while guiding product design for manufacturability.

Serve as the primary legal advisor to TeraWave, counseling on complex commercial and technology agreements, regulatory compliance (FCC, spectrum, ITU, export controls), risk management, and cross-functional product and operations matters. Draft and negotiate contracts, build scalable templates and playbooks, coordinate with regulatory counsel, manage outside counsel, and advise on evolving satellite communications and connectivity service issues.

Lead development and execution of TeraWave mission operations: create ConOps, procedures, telemetry displays, and automation; lead on-console teams; validate ops products in simulation; support launch and early orbit operations, anomaly response, ground station analysis, regulatory coordination, and mentor junior engineers.

Design and implement high-reliability embedded firmware for a satellite user terminal: low-level drivers, beamforming control, networking optimization, thermal and power management, secure boot/OTA, hardware debugging, and RTOS/Embedded Linux integration to enable real-time beam steering and high-throughput communications.

Lead development of enterprise human factors standards and provide program-level human factors expertise. Create standards, handbooks, training, and AI tool support; perform task/human error analyses, anthropometric and ergonomic evaluations, human-in-the-loop test support, verification planning, and collaborate with systems and design teams to integrate human-centered design across aerospace programs.

Lead or support hypergolic rocket engine and component test campaigns: plan and execute tests, operate consoles, integrate hardware, analyze test data, troubleshoot fluid systems and instrumentation, develop/update procedures, lead root-cause and safety efforts, mentor technicians, and participate in HAZMAT emergency response with required PPE and physical readiness.
