- Comfortable navigating office software, vendor portals, and basic data tracking to keep the office running efficiently.
What Makes You Stand Out:
- You can manage ten tasks at once without ever dropping a ball or letting the "stress" show to the end-user. You thrive in a dynamic environment.
- You have a genuine appreciation for humankind. You understand how to communicate effectively with diverse personalities and cultures—reminding us all that "we are in this together."
- You want to make the office a better place, but never at the expense of mother Earth. You look for green solutions in procurement and programming.
- You aren’t afraid to ask “why" or "how can we do this better?" You have a keen sense of curiosity and a hunger to learn.
- You believe in the power of teamwork. You understand that our diverse skill sets should complement one another to create a result greater than the sum of its parts.

Welcome to Planet. We believe in using space to help life on Earth.
Planet designs, builds, and operates the largest constellation of imaging satellites in history. This constellation delivers an unprecedented dataset of empirical information via a revolutionary cloud-based platform to authoritative figures in commercial, environmental, and humanitarian sectors.

What You Bring:
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
- 4+ years of professional software development experience, with solid proficiency in C or C++ for embedded systems (RTOS or bare-metal).
- Experience with Python for scripting, testing, and data analysis.
- Excellent communication skills, including the ability to explain technical concepts to a variety of stakeholders such as engineers, satellite operators, and engineering project managers.
- Professional experience working under agile development using the Git version control system.
- Familiarity with common hardware communication protocols such as UART, SPI, or I2C.
What Makes You Stand Out:
- Experience in multiple programming languages and operating systems.
- Linux/Unix systems programming experience such as memory-mapped files, network protocol development, process memory management, etc.
- Direct experience with RTOS and bare metal development on ARM microcontrollers (e.g., STM32).
- Experience writing software for FPGA softcores, RISC-V or otherwise.
- Experience developing or deploying applications for edge computing, such as onboard data processing or machine learning inference.
- Experience with containerization technologies like Docker/lxc.

Welcome to Planet. We believe in using space to help life on Earth.
Planet designs, builds, and operates the largest constellation of imaging satellites in history. This constellation delivers an unprecedented dataset of empirical information via a revolutionary cloud-based platform to authoritative figures in commercial, environmental, and humanitarian sectors. We are both a space company and data company all rolled into one.
Customers and users across the globe use Planet's data to develop new technologies, drive revenue, power research, and solve our world’s toughest obstacles.
As we control every component of hardware design, manufacturing, data processing, and software engineering, our office is a truly inspiring mix of experts from a variety of domains.
We have a people-centric approach toward culture and community and we strive to iterate in a way that puts our team members first and prepares our company for growth. Join Planet and be a part of our mission to change the way people see the world.
Planet is a global company with employees working remotely world wide and joining us from offices in San Francisco, Washington DC, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, and The Netherlands.
About the Role:
Planet's Space Systems organization designs, builds, and launches the largest fleet of Earth-imaging satellites in history. This team spans satellite manufacturing and integration, RF and antenna engineering, thermal and power systems, deployable structures, and avionics — and it represents Planet's highest-volume and most technically specialized hiring demand. We are scaling production for next-generation constellations and expanding manufacturing operations, which means Space Systems hiring runs at peak intensity through the middle of our fiscal year.
We are looking for an experienced contract Talent Acquisition Partner to provide coverage for a senior recruiter's planned leave of absence during this critical period. This is a full-time, approximately six-month engagement with an expected start in mid-June to allow onboarding overlap before the leave begins in July. You will step into an active portfolio of requisitions across hardware engineering and manufacturing, inherit existing candidate pipelines, and maintain delivery continuity for hiring managers who are accustomed to a high level of recruiting partnership.
This is not a ramp-up role. You will be expected to operate independently within the first few weeks — running intake meetings, managing pipeline, negotiating offers, and partnering directly with Space Systems hiring managers. You will work alongside a Talent Acquisition Partner who is permanently aligned to the pod for the hardest-to-fill technical roles.
You will report to the Senior Manager, Talent Acquisition for the duration of the contract.
This role is based in San Francisco, where Planet's headquarters and primary satellite manufacturing facility are located. This role will require you to work from our SF HQ 3 days per week.
Impact You’ll Own:
- Provide full-cycle recruiting coverage for the Space Systems pod during a senior team member's planned leave of absence, ensuring zero disruption to hiring delivery.
- Inherit and manage an active portfolio of requisitions spanning hardware engineering, manufacturing operations, satellite integration and test, and specialized technical disciplines — picking up existing pipelines and advancing candidates through the process without losing momentum.
- Partner directly with Space Systems hiring managers to maintain the caliber of recruiting partnership they expect — running intake meetings, providing market intelligence, managing expectations on timeline and candidate availability, and closing offers.
- Manage 10–15 concurrent requisitions across a range of engineering specialties including mechanical, electrical, RF, thermal, power, FPGA, and manufacturing operations roles.
- Collaborate with the Talent Acquisition Partner in the pod to balance workload, share pipeline intelligence, and ensure no requisitions fall through the cracks during the transition.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date pipeline data in Greenhouse, ensuring a clean handback when the senior team member returns from leave.
- Deliver a thorough transition at the end of the engagement — documenting pipeline status, hiring manager context, and candidate relationships so that nothing is lost when the permanent recruiter resumes.
What You Bring:
- 6+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with substantial time spent hiring for hardware engineering, manufacturing, or technical disciplines in aerospace, defense, or adjacent industries.
- Bachelor’s Degree in a relevant field.
- Ability to step into an active requisition portfolio and deliver results quickly — you have done contract or interim recruiting work before and know how to build hiring manager trust on an accelerated timeline.
- Deep familiarity with aerospace, satellite, or hardware engineering talent markets — you already know which companies, programs, and talent pools produce the candidates these hiring managers need.
- Experience managing a high-volume requisition load (10+ concurrent searches) with minimal supervision, maintaining quality pipeline activity and consistent stakeholder communication.
- Solid technical fluency across hardware engineering disciplines — you can credibly discuss RF design, power systems, thermal analysis, and mechanical engineering at a level that earns hiring manager confidence.
- Proficiency with Greenhouse or a comparable enterprise ATS, including pipeline management, reporting, and structured interview workflows.
- Excellent offer negotiation skills — you can manage competing offers, navigate compensation conversations, and close candidates in a competitive market without over-relying on escalation.
- Solid organizational discipline — you will be managing inherited pipelines with existing candidate relationships, and nothing can fall through the cracks during the transition.
What Makes You Stand Out:
- Direct experience recruiting for satellite, spacecraft, or launch vehicle programs — you can walk onto a manufacturing floor, understand what you are looking at, and translate that context into a compelling candidate pitch.
- Previous contract or interim recruiting engagements where you successfully covered a leave of absence or backfilled a senior recruiter — you have a playbook for fast onboarding and clean handoffs.
- Familiarity with ITAR and export control compliance as it relates to recruiting, including how citizenship and clearance requirements constrain candidate pools for specific roles.
- An existing network in the San Francisco Bay Area aerospace and hardware engineering talent community that you can activate immediately.
- Experience recruiting for both salaried engineering roles and hourly manufacturing or technician positions — comfortable spanning the full spectrum of Space Systems hiring.

Planet is a global company with employees working remotely world wide and joining us from offices in San Francisco, Washington DC, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, and The Netherlands.
About the Role:
Planet is scaling aggressively — growing our go-to-market engine, expanding into new customer segments, and building the corporate infrastructure to support a company that is transitioning from early adopter traction to mainstream market leadership. The teams that make this possible — Sales, Business Development, Marketing, Finance, Legal, People, and Company Operations — are all hiring simultaneously, and they need a recruiting partner who can move fluidly across these very different functions while maintaining quality and speed.
As a Talent Acquisition Partner aligned to the Commercial & G&A pod, you will own full-cycle recruiting across the broadest portfolio of role types on the TA team. In a single quarter, you may be sourcing enterprise Account Executives, closing a Marketing search, filling a Senior Financial Analyst role, and recruiting a Contracts Manager — each with different hiring manager expectations, candidate profiles, and market dynamics. The through-line is your ability to learn any function quickly, calibrate with hiring managers efficiently, and deliver candidates who raise the bar.
This is a pod-based role with persistent alignment, meaning you will build lasting relationships with the leadership teams across Commercial and G&A — understanding their organizational structures, growth plans, and talent gaps so you can anticipate demand rather than react to it. You will work alongside a Manager of TA who leads the pod and carries his own requisition load, creating a two-person team that can balance workload and share market intelligence across the portfolio.
You will report to and partner closely with your pod lead, while working with Talent Operations to deliver against quarterly hiring targets across all Commercial and G&A functions.
This role is based in Washington, DC, where a significant portion of Planet's Commercial and G&A leadership operates. This is a full-time, temporary position is expected to last 12 months with potential to be Permanent. This is a hybrid role which will require you to work from our D.C. office in Arlington, VA 3 days per week.
Impact You’ll Own:
- Own full-cycle recruiting for roles across Commercial and G&A — including Sales, Business Development, Marketing, Finance, Legal, People, and Company Operations — managing the widest variety of role types on the TA team.
- Manage 10–15 concurrent requisitions spanning a diverse portfolio, from revenue-generating go-to-market roles to corporate functions, adapting your sourcing strategy, candidate assessment approach, and stakeholder communication to each function's unique requirements.
- Build trusted partnerships with hiring managers across multiple departments — learning their team structures, business objectives, and hiring preferences so you become the first call when a new need emerges, not an afterthought when a requisition is already overdue.
- Develop fluency across multiple talent markets simultaneously — understanding what makes a great enterprise sales hire different from a great finance hire, where to find government contracts specialists, and how to assess marketing leadership candidates, all within the same quarter.
- Partner with your pod lead to balance workload across the Commercial & G&A portfolio, jointly managing capacity during peak hiring periods and ensuring continuity of coverage when demand surges in any single function.
- Maintain accurate pipeline data in Greenhouse, run structured pipeline reviews, and use data to identify bottlenecks, forecast delivery, and adjust strategies in real time.
- Serve as a candidate experience champion across all of your functions — ensuring that whether someone is interviewing for an Account Executive role or a Senior Counsel position, the process is professional, well-organized, and reflects Planet's values.
- Contribute market intelligence back to the broader TA team — sharing insights on compensation trends, competitive hiring activity, and sourcing strategies that may apply beyond your pod.
What You Bring:
- 6+ years of full-cycle recruiting experience, with success hiring across multiple corporate functions — not just one vertical. You have recruited for go-to-market roles and corporate functions, ideally within the same organization.
- Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field.
- Experience recruiting in a technology company environment where commercial hiring is tied to revenue growth — you understand the urgency behind sales hiring and the strategic importance of getting corporate functions right as a company scales.
- Ability to context-switch rapidly between very different role types and stakeholder profiles without sacrificing quality.
- Solid business acumen that allows you to understand how each function contributes to the company's growth.
- Sourcing skills across diverse talent markets — you know how to find enterprise sales professionals, corporate finance leaders, government contracts specialists, and marketing executives without relying solely on inbound applications.
- Proficiency with Greenhouse or a comparable enterprise ATS, including pipeline management, reporting, and structured interview workflows.
- Excellent judgment on candidate assessment across different functions — you can calibrate quickly with a hiring manager, push back constructively on unrealistic requirements, and recognize transferable skills that others might miss.
- Solid communication and relationship management skills — you will be a primary point of contact for hiring managers across many departments and need to maintain trust and credibility with all of them simultaneously.
What Makes You Stand Out:
- Experience recruiting for government-adjacent or defense-related commercial roles, particularly in business development, capture management, or government contracts — understanding the unique profile of candidates who sell into federal and intelligence agencies.
- Experience in aerospace, satellite, earth observation, or geospatial technology companies where the commercial team sells complex, technical products to a mix of government and enterprise customers.
- Familiarity with recruiting for distributed teams across multiple US offices and time zones, with an understanding of how location strategy affects candidate pools and compensation.
- Experience working in a pod-based or business unit-aligned recruiting model where you developed multi-functional expertise over time rather than specializing in a single domain.

Planet is a global company with employees working remotely world wide and joining us from offices in San Francisco, Washington DC, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, and The Netherlands.
About the Role:
Planet is in the middle of its most ambitious hiring year — onboarding hundreds of new team members across San Francisco, Washington DC, Berlin, and remote locations worldwide. Behind every hire is a set of operational workflows that need to run flawlessly: requisition approvals, interview coordination, offer processing, compliance checks, onboarding handoffs, and program management for specialized hiring tracks like our global intern program. The Talent Operations team is responsible for all of it — and we are looking for a Talent Operations Partner to step in and own critical pieces of that work.
As Talent Operations Partner, you will serve two primary functions. First, you will own and manage Planet’s intern and early talent program end-to-end — from requisition management and candidate coordination through onboarding, program programming, and offboarding. This is a visible, cross-functional program that touches hiring managers across every department and gives early-career candidates their first experience of Planet. Second, you will contribute directly to the Talent Operations roadmap, a portfolio of process improvement and systems projects that are actively reshaping how Planet manages the hiring lifecycle.
This role sits at the intersection of program management, process design, and recruiting operations. You will need to be equally comfortable running the logistics of an intern cohort and digging into ATS workflow configuration. The common thread is operational excellence — you care about whether things run smoothly, you notice when they don’t, and you fix them before someone has to ask.
You will report to the Senior Manager, Talent Operations and work as part of a team that includes Talent Operations, Recruiting Coordinators, and a Working Student. Together, this team ensures that Planet’s recruiting infrastructure scales in step with the company’s growth. This is a full-time, hybrid role which will require you to work from our San Francisco office 3 days per week.
Impact You’ll Own:
- Own and manage Planet’s intern and early talent program end-to-end — including requisition intake, candidate coordination, offer processing, onboarding logistics, program events and content, manager enablement, and offboarding workflows.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for hiring managers and interns throughout the program lifecycle — ensuring hiring managers know what to expect and interns have a structured, high-quality experience from day one through final presentations.
- Partner with Talent Acquisition Partners to coordinate intern recruiting timelines, track pipeline progress across departments, and ensure all intern offers are processed accurately and on time.
- Contribute to the Talent Operations roadmap by owning or supporting key projects, with an immediate focus on the headcount approval workflow redesign — documenting the current process, mapping the ideal state, building automated workflows, and creating stakeholder-facing documentation.
- Maintain and improve ATS (Greenhouse) workflows and configurations related to intern hiring, offer approvals, and operational reporting — ensuring data integrity and process consistency across all hiring tracks.
- Support SLA monitoring and compliance by tracking scorecard submission timelines, offer approval turnaround, and other operational metrics — flagging risks early and following up with stakeholders to keep processes on track.
- Create and maintain process documentation in the talent operations knowledge base — ensuring that intern program playbooks, approval workflows, and operational procedures are current, clear, and accessible to the recruiting team and hiring managers.
- Coordinate cross-functionally with People Operations, People Business Partners, and the L&D team on intern onboarding, compliance requirements, and program content that connects interns to Planet’s mission and culture.
- Support additional recruiting operations projects as capacity allows — including AI tool deployment, global process standardization, interview process documentation, and reporting enhancements.
- Identify operational inefficiencies and propose improvements.
What You Bring:
- Bachelor’s Degree
- 2+ years of professional experience in recruiting operations, talent operations, HR operations, or program coordination at a technology company or similarly dynamic environment.
- Experience managing or supporting an intern, early talent, or campus recruiting program — including the logistics, stakeholder communication, and coordination required to run a multi-department cohort program smoothly.
- Familiarity with applicant tracking systems, including data entry, workflow navigation, reporting, and basic configuration.
- Effective project management skills: you can manage multiple concurrent workstreams, track deliverables and deadlines, and communicate progress to stakeholders without being micromanaged.
- Effective organizational skills and attention to detail — recruiting operations is a high-volume, high-precision function where small errors in offer letters, approval chains, or compliance documentation create real downstream problems.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills — you will draft process documentation, communicate with hiring managers across the company, and correspond with intern candidates who are forming their first impression of Planet.
- A process improvement mindset — you don’t just run the process, you question whether it’s the right process. You look for bottlenecks, redundancies, and manual steps that could be automated or eliminated.
- Comfort working in a team that is actively building and improving its own infrastructure — the Talent Operations function is evolving, and you need to be energized by contributing to that build rather than expecting a fully mature playbook.
What Makes You Stand Out:
- Experience with headcount planning or approval workflow tools and an understanding of how requisition approval processes connect to HRIS and finance systems.
- Previous experience building or redesigning an operational process from scratch — documenting current state, proposing improvements, and implementing changes with measurable results.
- Familiarity with intern program best practices including cohort programming, manager enablement, structured feedback cycles, and conversion-to-hire tracking.
- Experience working with global hiring operations, particularly coordinating intern or early talent programs that span multiple offices or geographies.
- Exposure to recruiting metrics and reporting — you have pulled reports from an ATS, built tracking spreadsheets, or contributed to operational dashboards that inform team decision-making.
- Experience with Greenhouse, the applicant tracking system.

About the Role:
As a Product Manager for Real-Time Insights at Planet, you will lead the charge in transforming how the world interacts with Earth observation data. You will be responsible for a cutting-edge, multi-mission capability designed to collapse the time between "observation" and "action." By leveraging technologies like on-satellite edge computing, rapid tasking, and ultra-low latency downlink, you will enable customers to make critical decisions in minutes, not days.
You will own the product lifecycle from concept to launch, navigating the technical trade-offs of space-based processing while ensuring a seamless experience for users in high-stakes environments like emergency response and national defense. This role is central to Planet’s mission of making global change visible, accessible and actionable, specifically where every second counts.

What You Bring:
- 6+ years of Product Management experience, specifically with a track record of launching complex, technical products.
- Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field.
- Understanding of satellite systems, tasking conops, edge compute and/or data processing.
- Ability to understand and represent the needs of users in mission-critical, near real time environments such as defense, intelligence, or disaster response.
- Experience balancing technical trade-offs and customer needs in complex product ecosystems.
- Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to work independently and as part of a team.
- Exceptional communication skills, with a knack for explaining complex technical trade-offs to both executive and engineering audiences.
- Ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously and prioritize appropriately.
- Eligibility for US Export Control licenses (ITAR/EAR), as you will be working with sensitive satellite technologies.
What Makes You Stand Out:
- Hands-on experience with Edge AI or deploying algorithms in resource-constrained environments (IoT, Aerospace, or Mobile).
- Direct experience with the Defense and Intelligence community, particularly in GEOINT or tactical ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance).
- Current US Security Clearance or the ability to obtain and maintain one.
Application Deadline:
June 26, 2026 at 11:59p PT
EAR/ITAR Requirements:
This position requires access to export-controlled information, and as such, employment (or hiring of a contractor) is contingent upon the candidate’s ability to access all applicable export-controlled information without additional export licensing being required by the Bureau of Industry and Security and/or the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls.
