Work as a satellite systems engineer across satellite design, development, testing, and operations, helping build communications infrastructure and direct-to-device connectivity.
About this role
This role supports project management within a rocket development program. It covers the full development flow from design and manufacturing through assembly and operations, and works across structural, propulsion, avionics and ground-facility teams. The position is responsible for maintaining an integrated view of the program rather than handling isolated schedule updates.
The work includes consolidating progress across technical systems, integrating the overall timeline, and coordinating with design leads and schedule owners. The assistant project manager evaluates dependencies and risks between phases, proposes schedule changes, supports decisions to bring work forward or move it back, and reports progress against major project milestones. When delays or risks arise, the role considers alternatives and coordinates adjustments between departments.
