Spacecraft Project Manager

Spacecraft Project Manager

As an end-to-end responsive space company, Firefly Aerospace is on a mission to enable our world to launch, land, and operate in space – anywhere, anytime. Our small- to medium-lift launch vehicles, lunar landers, and orbital vehicles allow us to service the entire lifecycle of government and commercial missions from low Earth orbit to the Moon and beyond. We utilize carbon composite structures, patented propulsion technologies, and common components across our vehicles to iterate quickly, improve reliability, and deliver payloads at a lower cost.

As a Spacecraft Project Manager, you develop systems to aggregate diverse data streams to create a coherent, actionable picture that enables program managers to take efficient steps to keep programs affordable, on schedule, and meeting financial commitments. You'll work closely with high-performing teams and sources of data from supply chain, production operations, contracts, and schedules, and others to form the comprehensive picture of the state of our programs. You'll also expand this picture to teams working assembly, integration, launch and mission operations for our Blue Ghost lunar and Elytra orbiter programs.
