Top Tech Jobs & Startup Jobs

Design and develop RPO estimation and optimization algorithms, conduct trade studies, and support integration with the Space Operations team.

Design and implement algorithms for image processing and object tracking for spacecraft, integrating with flight software and conducting simulations.

Manage day-to-day indirect procurement: execute procure-to-pay, issue RFQs and POs, manage vendors, track orders, resolve disputes, maintain records, support contract administration, and ensure compliance with applicable export/regulatory requirements.

Lead development and execution of a scalable global supply chain strategy. Manage supplier relationships, negotiate contracts, conduct make-vs-buy and capacity planning, ensure compliance with aerospace regulations (ITAR, DFARS, AS9100, FAR), monitor performance, and collaborate with engineering, production, legal, and finance to align supply activities with program timelines and budgets.

Execute manual and automated full-stack software tests, document defects in Jira, participate in Agile ceremonies, collaborate with developers and product teams, and maintain manual and automated Playwright test scripts. The role contributes to QA standards and testing processes while developing automation skills. This is a three-month temporary engagement with potential conversion to regular employment.

Leads mechanical design and integration of infrared telescope and sensor payloads for spacecraft. Responsibilities include athermalized optomechanical design, cooling solutions, structural and thermal analysis, optical alignment, metrology, vibration isolation, CAD documentation, supplier coordination, and design reviews. Establishes optomechanical standards and drives technical outcomes across payload programs from concept through qualification and production.

Supports software deployment, monitoring, automation, and cloud operations under experienced DevOps guidance. Assists with CI/CD pipelines, Kubernetes deployments, Azure cloud resources, Terraform infrastructure, Docker images, system troubleshooting, and security best practices. The role is a three-month temporary engagement with possible conversion to regular employment. It is onsite in Centennial, Colorado, or Long Beach, California, and requires U.S. citizenship and eligibility for DoD clearance.

Design, implement, validate, and deploy autonomy and optimization capabilities for fleet mission planning, resource allocation, sequential decision-making, and threat assessment. Develop distributed optimization architectures, translate stakeholder needs into mathematical programs, and validate solutions through simulation, hardware-in-the-loop testing, and operational deployment. The role requires production-quality software, rigorous testing, and collaboration across engineering disciplines in support of space operations.

Lead design, analysis, and validation of spacecraft electrical power subsystems (solar arrays, batteries, distribution, and protection). Own architecture trades, perform modeling/simulation, radiation and reliability analysis, lead PDR/CDR, develop test/EGSE/HIL campaigns, support environmental testing, produce design documentation, and mentor junior engineers to ensure mission-ready, high-reliability power systems.

The Mechanical Engineer will design and develop flight hardware for missile defense and hypersonic vehicles, leading mechanical integration, creating structural designs, and ensuring compliance with defense standards.
