Join us to design and deploy next-generation, satellite-based radar that delivers persistent, all-weather, day-night sensing at global scale. You'll build end-to-end capabilities-from waveform design, on-board processing, classification and calibration-for systems on LEO platforms. Working across RF hardware, phased arrays, and advanced DSP, you'll turn raw echoes into decision-ready products. If you thrive at the intersection of electromagnetics, signal processing, and systems engineering-and want your code and designs to fly-this role is for you.
What you'll be doing:- Develop and maintain the integrated master schedule linked to technical, deliverable, procurement, review, and payment milestones.
- Collect status, validate logic, analyze critical path and schedule risk, and forecast milestone completion.
- Integrate staffing hours, material commitments, risks, actions, and acceptance dependencies into management reporting.
- Support baseline changes, what-if analysis, corrective-action planning, and Government status reviews.
- Maintain objective evidence for schedule status and prevent unsupported percent-complete reporting.
What you bring to this role:- Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience and 5+ years of defense/aerospace program controls.
- Advanced scheduling-tool experience and strong critical-path/logic analysis.
- Experience with fixed-price development, technical reviews, and supplier schedules.
- Ability to convert complex engineering work into decision-ready forecasts.
- Security clearance: U.S. citizenship is required. Candidate must be able to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance at the Secret level or higher, and any program-specific access required for the position. Continued employment is contingent upon obtaining and maintaining the required clearance and access.
Bonus points for the following:- Microsoft Project, Primavera P6, or Open Plan experience.
- Schedule risk analysis, IPMDAR, EVM, or cost/schedule integration experience.
- PMP, PMI-SP, EVP, or equivalent certification.
This is a full time, exempt position, based out of our Saratoga office. The target base pay for this position is $120,000 - $200,000 annually. The total compensation packaged will be determined by various factors such as your relevant job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.
We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used-so we're looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience on LEO satellite component development, design and in-orbit activities. If that's your experience - then we'll be immediately wow-ed.
This role requires access to controlled technical data. Under U.S. law (ITAR/EAR), we can only consider U.S. persons (U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and individuals granted asylum or refugee status).
E-Space is not currently able to provide employment sponsorship for candidates who do not hold work authorization for the location of this role.
