Requires deep antenna/RF expertise, advanced EM simulation skills, and experience taking complex engineering efforts from concept through qualification.

Lead avionics hardware and software integration, verification, validation, and system-level testing across spacecraft production and test platforms. Develop test plans, scripts, automation, and requirements traceability; troubleshoot hardware, software, and embedded systems; analyze results; and document compliance with aerospace standards. Collaborate across engineering teams and participate in design and test readiness reviews to ensure avionics flight readiness.

Design, analyze, document, build, integrate, and test precision motor-driven spacecraft mechanisms. Responsibilities include CAD design, stress and tolerance analysis, drivetrain component integration, engineering drawings, fabrication support, environmental testing, troubleshooting, and collaboration with avionics, motor control, and systems engineering teams.

Manages information assurance for designated information systems and leads cybersecurity teams across multiple security environments. Oversees cybersecurity policies, compliance, operations, awareness, risk assessments, safeguards, and incident communications. Advises leadership and coordinates with internal stakeholders, customers, and government representatives. Provides cybersecurity training, mentorship, briefings, and operational guidance while ensuring alignment with business objectives and government compliance requirements.

Develop and govern Cameo-based SysML models for space and missile defense systems. Lead requirements traceability, architecture, interfaces, verification and validation modeling, model integration, and digital thread development. Support systems engineering processes, DoD compliance, Agile model delivery, classified programs, subcontractor evaluation, customer engagements, and proposal activities. Integrate MBSE models with PLM and enterprise data systems while mentoring teams and driving MBSE adoption.

Serves as in-house counsel for corporate finance, M&A, strategic investments, employee liquidity programs, equity administration, and commercial transactions. Leads financings and acquisitions from term sheet through closing, manages diligence and Board materials, advises on real estate and supplier agreements, and provides practical corporate guidance to executives and internal teams. The role also supports national security reviews, government contract diligence, and post-closing integration within a venture-backed defense technology company.

Own and mature the company’s intellectual property strategy across patents, trade secrets, software, data, trademarks, licensing, and open-source compliance. Manage IP portfolios, invention processes, agreements, employee IP obligations, and government data-rights matters. Advise technical and business teams on ownership, licensing, export controls, and risk. Support broader corporate legal work, including commercial contracts, transactions, financing, and legal-process improvements.

Designs and analyzes space missions, including rendezvous, proximity operations, and constellation performance. Builds simulation and modeling tools, conducts orbital mechanics and Monte Carlo analyses, optimizes spacecraft maneuvers, and supports system architecture decisions. Oversees mission-system integration, verification, testing, real-time mission support, and pre- and post-flight analyses. Collaborates with subsystem teams and stakeholders to assess performance, reliability, safety, risks, and mission success.

Architects and manages enterprise security engineering, threat detection, vulnerability assessment, security hardening, incident response, and security policies across cloud, on-premises, and SaaS environments. The role monitors security logs, supports compliance, advises on vendors and implementations, integrates security into the development lifecycle, and participates in on-call and change management activities.

Develop and test low-level flight software for spacecraft computers, integrate GNC algorithms, maintain command and telemetry databases, support spacecraft command sequencing, build subsystem simulators, and create device drivers and communications libraries. The role requires embedded RTOS, safety-critical systems, hardware protocols, C/C++, Python, and eligibility for TS/SCI clearance. This is an onsite position near Denver or Long Beach.
