Director of Facilities

Icarus was founded on the belief that the Stratosphere is the Forgotten Frontier and that reclaiming it will define the next era of aerospace and what is possible from the sky. We build solar-powered aircraft that fly at 60,000 ft for weeks at a time, delivering persistent, affordable, and scalable presence from this layer of the atmosphere.

Mission

Re-establish and maintain dominance in the Stratosphere.

What you’ll do

Own every aspect of Icarus' physical infrastructure. Your job is simple: build and maintain an environment where engineers can focus entirely on building aircraft. You will: 

• Own our facilities end to end, from daily operations to long-term expansion.
• Lead factory buildouts, renovations, and infrastructure projects.
• Design factory layouts that improve engineering and manufacturing velocity.
• Plan and execute equipment moves, machine installations, and production area expansions.
• Own utilities includi
