Senior Program Manager, Classified Space Programs
About the role
Muon Space is seeking a Senior Program Manager to lead classified space programs for U.S. Government national security customers. These programs span the full mission lifecycle — concept development and design through integration, launch, and on-orbit operations — and are executed under formal government contract structures with defined deliverables and milestones. The Senior Program Manager runs the program end to end: executing every contractual commitment and positioning Muon to win the work that follows.
You will be the single accountable owner for cost, schedule, and technical performance, and the primary programmatic and technical interface to the Government customer team. This is a senior, high-autonomy role: milestone-driven deliverables on a fast contractual clock, technical exchanges at multiple classification levels, and cross-functional leadership across systems engineering, payload, flight software, ground segment, and mission operations. Because the program operates under strict security requirements, the Senior Program Manager also owns the discipline that keeps execution — and everything said about it — inside those boundaries.
