We are looking for a UI/UX Designer who is passionate about crafting software that pushes the bounds of what’s possible. Our software is a modern web‑based application that operators use to monitor and control constellations of spacecraft across several active missions.
This is an early‑career role for someone eager to grow quickly in a technically demanding environment. You'll work alongside experienced engineers and designers who will support your development through mentorship, peer feedback, and collaborative critique. As you ramp up, you'll take on real feature work — conceiving UI components, reimagining existing workflows, and coordinating closely with developers on implementation. The problems we work on are complex, and you will be supported by your team and leadership to engage with and grow into that complexity over time.
