Backend Software Engineer (senior) @ Loft Orbital

Loft Orbital deploys space infrastructure as a service, providing rapid, reliable, and simplified access to space. We have two satellites currently in orbit, with many more slated to launch in the next couple of years. With satellite buses in inventory and quarterly launches booked, we deliver customer missions to space in months, not years. We shield our customers from the complexity of a space mission by handling the mission as a service. Come help develop Cockpit, our innovative mission control system which enables us to automate all aspects of satellite operations, end to end. We love: Python, GraphQL, Kubernetes, gRPC, Django, Cue, C++, people who want to simplify the complex problem that is space infrastructure. Prior space experience helpful but not necessary! We are: $140 million Series B led by BlackRock, a space startup with proven flight heritage, thoughtful, experienced, friendly, eager, and driven. We have: other open roles if you've got something else in mind--Data Engineer, DevOps / Site Reliability Engineer, DevSecOps Engineer, Machine Learning Developer (flight software), Flight Software Engineer, Embedded Software Engineers, Electrical Engineers, and more!
