If this excites you, we are interested in hearing about your best work and accomplishments across any domain and from any points in your life. About the Role As an Orbit Operations Engineer, you'll own both the day-to-day operation of our spacecraft and the development of the operational infrastructure that makes it all work.

You'll also build and refine the tools, scripts, and processes that keep our future fleet running smoothly. As our constellation grows, you'll help shape operational strategies, maintain and update mission requirements, and drive continuous improvement across our satellite and ground segment. Responsibilities - Monitor real-time telemetry and spacecraft subsystem health, identifying and responding to anomalies early - Plan and execute spacecraft maneuvers, station-keeping, and orbital adjustments - Coordinate ground station passes, command uplink, and data downlink schedules - Support launch campaigns and in-orbit testing for new satellites - Develop, validate, and maintain operational procedures and command sequences - Collaborate with spacecraft engineering teams to define CONOPS, fault management, and spacecraft procedures - Support deployment and testing of ground software updates
