  • Deep understanding and hands-on experience with DevOps practices: CI/CD, infrastructure as code (IaC), and automation.
  • Proven track record of working in fast-paced, high-growth technical environments.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to operate independently with a proactive, results-driven mindset.
  • Strong communication skills; thrives in a multicultural, cross-functional team.
  • Master’s degree in Computer Science or a similar field
  • Nice to Haves:

  • Hands-on experience with GitOps frameworks (ArgoCD, FluxCD).
  • Interest or experience in FinOps and cost-optimized architectures.
  • Understanding of orchestration in resource-constrained environments, like space systems.
  • Knowledge of systems engineering tools and SDLC governance.
  • Familiarity with security practices, vulnerability scanning, threat detection, risk mitigation.

  •  *Research shows that while men apply to jobs where they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other underrepresented people tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the qualifications. At Loft, we value respectful debate and people who aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions.  We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don’t check all the boxes.

    Founded in 2017, Loft provides governments, companies, and research institutions with a fast, reliable, and simple way to deploy missions in orbit.

    We integrate, launch, and operate spacecraft, offering end-to-end missions as a service across Earth observation, IoT connectivity, on-orbit AI, national security missions, and more. Leveraging our existing space infrastructure and an extensive inventory of satellite buses, Loft is reducing years-long integration and launch timelines to months. With more than 30 missions flown, Loft’s flight heritage and proven technologies enable customers to focus on their mission objectives.

    With a growing fleet on track to reach 30 satellites by 2027, we are scaling up quickly across our offices in San Francisco, CA | Golden, CO | and Toulouse, France to meet accelerating demand for space infrastructure.
