D-Orbit Space is growing a U.S. team in Boulder, Colorado to deliver in-orbit logistics for American government and commercial customers — on a platform that has already flown, under contract with the Defense Innovation Unit and the Space Development Agency.
Most companies in this market are a demonstration looking for a business model. We already run the business. What is new is the contract structure — not the physics.
Three ION carriers sit in our Boulder facility today, and the platform has 23 orbital transportation missions behind it. You will not spend two years on slides.
A $24 million award from DIU and the Space Development Agency, with D-Orbit Space as prime contractor. The mission has a customer and a date.
The U.S. team is early. Engineers here own subsystems outright rather than a corner of someone else's.
Autonomous approach and capture of a tumbling object that was never designed to be caught. There is no cookbook for this.
U.S. avionics, U.S. flight software and a U.S. supply chain, with two decades of platform engineering behind you in Europe.
Headquarters, clean room and integration all in one building, in the middle of the U.S. space corridor.
All roles are based at our Boulder, Colorado headquarters.
Do not see your role? We are always interested in strong spacecraft engineers, mission operators and program managers. Send a CV and a note about what you want to work on.
Send a CV and a short note naming the role you want and the problem you want to own. We read every one.
Eligibility. Our work supports U.S. government programs with cybersecurity and export-control requirements. Most roles require the ability to work in the United States without sponsorship, and some require U.S. person status under ITAR. Each job description states what applies.
D-Orbit Space, Inc. is an equal opportunity employer.
A conversation about your work and what we are building. No take-home before we have both decided it is worth your time.
A working session with the engineers you would sit next to, on a real problem from the program.
Leadership and the wider team, in Boulder where possible.
We move quickly once we know. You will not wait weeks for an answer.
Tell us the mission and the date you have to meet. We will tell you what it takes to accomplish it — and reserve the capacity to do it.
