We’re partnering with one of the most forward-leaning space technology companies in the national security ecosystem, an organization building a disruptive platform poised to change how the U.S. deploys and manages assets on orbit. This team is small, elite, and moving fast. And they’re looking for a GNC Engineer who wants more than a job, they want ownership, impact, and the opportunity to architect a system that will fly.

You will shape the GNC architecture, design flight algorithms, manage subsystem requirements, and drive hardware/software integration from the earliest concepts through orbit. Your work will directly influence mission performance across an entirely new category of space systems, where precision, agility, and reliability determine real-world outcomes. This is the rare chance to build something first-of-its-kind with a leadership team that actually values innovation and gives engineers the authority to make it happen. What You’ll Lead Architect the entire GNC subsystem for next-gen space platforms Own pointing budgets, alignments, and subsystem-level requirements Design and implement flight-ready algorithms for embedded software Build ground-based tools for constellation monitoring and operations Support hardware-in-the-loop testing in advanced system testbeds You’ll collaborate daily with exceptional engineers who care deeply about both mission success and technical excellence. What You Bring 5+ years of GNC experience in spacecraft, satellite, or comparable aerospace platforms Strong modeling and simulation background Experience with multi-sensor attitude determination Hands-on flight software development and testing End-to-end lifecycle experience, from concept to on-orbit support What’s In It for You Equity in a rapidly scaling space company Competitive compensation and bonus structure Generous PTO and holiday schedule Wellness and commuter benefits The opportunity to influence a program with national-level significance If this sounds of interest, please apply today! #J-18808-Ljbffr InnoForge
