Satellite Operations Platform Manager
About the role
As a Satellite Operations Platform Manager, you will be the bridge between our spacecraft in orbit, our Satellite Operations team, and the broader engineering and business teams. You’ll take responsibility for turning customer contracts into operational reality by ensuring satellites are successfully commissioned, transitioned to nominal operations, and scaled to meet a rapidly growing constellation.
This role sits at the intersection of engineering execution and operational strategy: you’ll coordinate across subsystems (Flight Software, Ground Software, Thermal, Electrical, Systems, GNC, Business Development) to ensure that satellites meet contractual obligations, while also helping the Satellite Operations team prepare for rapid growth in fleet size.
This position can be performed remotely from an approved location.
Responsibilities
- Lead cross functional teams supporting commissioning activities and anomaly reviews and provide regular progress updates to management
- Monitor operational performance against contractual requirements and coordinate cross team support to address any performance shortfalls
- Ensure Satellite Operation’s systems and processes are scalable and support anticipated fleet expansion and contractual requi
