This role combines hands-on spacecraft control with strategic test planning and automation development. As a satellite controller, you'll be responsible for all powered vehicle operations, developing comprehensive test plans that simulate flight conditions, and ensuring mission success through rigorous testing and validation procedures. The position offers a unique opportunity to work across multiple technical disciplines, from hardware testing to software verification, while playing a crucial role in both ground and orbital operations. The ideal candidate will bring a first-principles approach to spacecraft testing, with experience in both hands-on technical work and cross-team collaboration. This role offers competitive compensation ($100,000-$135,000 plus equity) and comprehensive benefits, including unlimited PTO and full healthcare coverage. Located in Los Angeles, you'll be part of a team pushing the boundaries of spacecraft innovation, with the opportunity to grow from manual operations to developing fully automated systems.
