Support material availability for production by planning and scheduling procurement, using ERP/MRP systems and Excel. Collaborate with procurement, manufacturing, engineering, and logistics to forecast demand, resolve quality/delivery/pricing issues, and report inventory performance to management.

Support system development across requirements management, architecture, integration, and V&V for space and ground systems. Execute subsystem-level verification, hands-on integration and test activities, track technical risks, coordinate interfaces, and participate in reviews, trade studies, and audits to deliver compliant, flight-ready system solutions.

The Software Systems Engineer II designs, develops, and tests software for space systems, writing maintainable code and collaborating with teams on innovative solutions.

Lead system requirements decomposition, architecture, integration, and verification for space and ground systems. Drive V&V planning, manage technical risks, coordinate cross-functional integration and anomaly resolution, and produce systems engineering artifacts throughout the product lifecycle.

Lead and deliver a program (or IPT/portfolio under $100M) owning cost, schedule, and technical performance. Develop program plans, manage budgets/schedules, monitor performance, implement corrective actions, report risks/status to stakeholders, interface with finance, mentor junior managers, and ensure contractual and regulatory compliance. Support customer-facing activities and continuous improvement.

Lead planning, scheduling, budgeting, and earned value control for complex government/defense programs. Perform financial analyses, maintain expenditure records, integrate contractual changes into control systems, and mentor team members. Ensure compliance with government cost-control and EVMS guidelines and prepare program reports and forecasts.

As a Talent Sourcing Partner at Sierra Space, you will attract and recruit talent, manage pipelines, conduct screenings, and coordinate interviews while ensuring alignment with business needs.

Lead specification, architecture, integration, and verification of complex space systems. Manage requirements derivation, traceability, V&V planning, system integration, and technical risk. Coordinate cross-functional teams, oversee milestone reviews, and ensure compliance with engineering processes and operational readiness.

Perform and lead structural design and analysis using hand calculations and FEA to solve complex aerospace structural integrity problems. Own discrete technical packages as a Responsible Engineer, develop practical solutions, collaborate across disciplines, mentor junior engineers, and communicate technical matters with internal and external stakeholders to ensure project integration and technical excellence.

Plan and schedule material procurement to meet production timelines using ERP/MRP systems. Forecast demand, optimize inventory, monitor supplier performance, resolve delivery/quality issues, collaborate with procurement, engineering and manufacturing, and prepare inventory and material planning reports to support production.

The Avionics Technician I installs, inspects, tests, and repairs avionics systems while performing basic maintenance and setup activities. This entry-level role focuses on the use of precision tools, adherence to safety practices, and collaboration for high-quality work.

Lead and manage spacecraft ground operations, ensuring efficient processing and launch readiness of spacecraft while implementing improvements and maintaining safety compliance.

Design and develop flight software for space systems, mentor engineers, and ensure adherence to software development principles in an Agile environment.

Develop and implement manufacturing processes to improve efficiency, quality, and safety. Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions, drive Lean/Six Sigma process improvements, perform preventive maintenance, document SOPs and work instructions, read schematics and technical manuals, analyze production data, and support process validation and equipment calibration.

Lead systems engineering, operations, and training teams to develop operational procedures, execute mission operations, build training/certification programs, integrate with requirements/verification efforts, manage budgets/resources, lead readiness reviews and simulations, mitigate operational risks, and collaborate across spacecraft, ground, and systems engineering stakeholders.

Lead multi-site manufacturing, assembly, integration, and test operations for satellites and spacecraft; develop production strategies to scale to high-rate repeatable manufacturing; standardize processes and implement MES and production data systems; drive lean/continuous improvement, capacity planning, vertical integration, and cost reduction; ensure compliance with aerospace standards, export controls, and security; build and lead large multi-layered production teams and partner cross-functionally for production readiness.

Lead and optimize SI&OP processes connecting demand, supply, capacity, finance, and programs. Implement planning tools, develop dashboards and reports, drive cross-functional alignment, manage inventory and capacity strategies, facilitate planning cadences, and promote process adoption and continuous improvement to ensure on-time delivery and predictable program execution.

Supervise manufacturing and assembly of space system hardware, manage schedules, materials, and manpower, resolve production and quality issues, collaborate with engineering and QA, recommend process improvements, and lead performance management and safety initiatives.
