Loft Orbital operates small-satellite buses, purchasing platforms, integrating customer payloads and hosting virtual missions so commercial, academic and government users deploy software and sensors on Loft-managed spacecraft.
Wanna join the adventure? Are you passionate about spacecraft attitude control, guidance, and mission performance? If so, this is the perfect role for you! Loft flies multiple satellites per year and is building the next generation of guidance and attitude control capabilities across a growing fleet of spacecraft. We're looking for an Attitude Guidance & Performance Engineer to serve as the technical authority for ADCS performance, guidance algorithms, and attitude control across Loft missions. This role requires expertise in attitude dynamics, guidance and control, and on-orbit operations. You'll work closely with mission teams, customers, and spacecraft suppliers to define performance requirements, develop and validate guidance solutions, support in-orbit operations, and resolve complex attitude control challenges. You'll help build a common guidance service that interfaces with multiple spacecraft platforms, supports diverse customer missions, and enables increasingly agile spacecraft operations.
