Careers at Loftorbital

Wanna join the adventure? Loft Orbital builds a space infrastructure providing a fast & simple path to orbit. Using different flight proven buses, we design, integrate and operate spacecraft to fly physical or virtual customer payloads. We handle entire missions end to end, significantly reducing the lead-time and risk of a traditional space mission. As a Product Systems Engineer at Loft, you will work at the intersection of software architecture, systems engineering, and product — contributing to the coherence of our overall offering across ground, space, software, and hardware. You will help define how capabilities are structured and allocated across segments, and how customers, third-party software, and Loft's own stack interact. This is a role for someone who wants to go deep on technically complex problems that span the full stack. You will work across ground processing, customer-facing tooling, and interface definition — contributing to architecture decisions, maintaining requirements and ICDs, and helping ensure the offering evolves in a consistent and product-relevant way. You will collaborate closely with engineering, product, and operations teams across sites to turn technical ambiguity into clear frameworks for implementation.

We handle entire missions from end to end, significantly reducing the lead-time and risk of a traditional space mission. As a Satellite Systems Engineer at Loft, you will work on one or several satellite missions simultaneously, each one flying a single/multi-payload configuration. You will be a technical reference for these missions, working closely with program manager and all the Loft teams: products development teams, flight and ground software, AIT and operations. Using flight proven satellite buses and Loft designed payload hub infrastructure, you will lead the development activities of the missions you are in charge of.

Wanna join the adventure? Loft Orbital is revolutionizing access to space by building reliable, shareable satellites that drastically reduce the time and complexity traditionally required to get to orbit. We operate satellites, fly customer payloads, and handle entire missions from end-to-end. We’re a close-knit team of space enthusiasts, software experts, and cutting-edge technologists, all working together to make space simple for our customers. As a SeniorCloud Infrastructure Engineer on our Cloud Infrastructure Team, you’ll play a pivotal role in maintaining and scaling our ground segment infrastructure. You’ll collaborate across development, operations, and IT to ensure the integration, delivery, and reliability of services that support our space operations on Earth and in orbit. This is an exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge technology and help build modern automated space infrastructure. This is not your typical SRE role, we apply DevOps principles even to spacecraft control. Yes, we call it SatDevOps, and we’ll train you to operate our satellites!

Wanna join the adventure? Loft Orbital is looking for a Software Engineer to join our Core team within Ground Platform. The team develops the core capabilities that support Loft's ground platform, improve development workflows, and ensure platform reliability. You'll help build shared services and tools that benefit software teams across Loft. You'll work on backend services, workflow automation, AI tooling, and platform infrastructure, with a focus on observability and reliability. You'll also have the opportunity to take part in spacecraft operations through SatDevOps rotations, helping investigate anomalies and supporting real-time incident response when needed. If you're excited about improving how software is developed across Loft, contributing to key technical decisions, and building more reliable platform systems, we'd love to hear from you.

Wanna join the adventure? Loft Orbital is looking for a Backend Engineer to join our Oort team. Oort is our central web platform—a unified environment that consolidates all infrastructure data and tools, empowering Loft to streamline, integrate, and manage the entire mission lifecycle with unprecedented efficiency and transparency. Oort bridges the gap between diverse mission phases, operational teams, and business processes by centralizing essential information and workflows, establishing a standard for space mission execution at scale.

Wanna join the adventure? Loft Orbital builds and operates satellites, and behind every mission is a web of business systems: ERP, PLM, MES, issue tracking, finance, and a growing toolkit of in-house software. Each holds part of the story; none of them tells the whole thing. We’re looking for an Information Systems Data Engineer to connect them. You’ll design Loft’s centralized database, build the pipelines that feed it, and deliver the reporting that shows how we’re really performing. If you like writing code that turns messy, scattered data into something people actually rely on, we’d love to talk.

Wanna join the adventure? We’re looking for a Technical Recruiter with a strong background in software and product engineering recruitment who is excited to help Loft Orbital scale its engineering teams. In this role, you’ll own the full-cycle recruiting process—from sourcing to offer—for highly specialized software positions supporting our satellite platforms, mission operations, ground systems, and product development. You’ll partner closely with hiring managers to identify, engage, and attract exceptional engineering talent in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
