Jobs at Xona Space Systems

Own satellite development schedule across bus and payload, coordinate cross-functional teams and suppliers, manage risks and critical path, report program status to leadership, and build TPM processes for rapid hardware development.

Design and implement high-performance signal-processing solutions for LEO PNT satellite systems, focusing on FPGA optimization, DSP algorithms, and hardware integration.

As a Junior Software Developer, you will design and execute software test procedures for satellite systems, implement automated testing frameworks, and validate hardware interactions.

The Sys Admin role involves managing enterprise SaaS tools, supporting secure environments, ensuring compliance, and coordinating data across systems.

Lead development and architecture of navigation subsystems (precise positioning, orbit determination, clock estimation, atmospheric modeling, integrity monitoring), mentor engineers, and translate algorithms into flight-ready software and interfaces with payload and systems engineering.

The Mechanical Engineer will design and manage RF systems hardware, ensuring project delivery from design to testing within a collaborative team.

As a DevOps Engineer, you'll develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines, automate testing, manage infrastructure, and improve build processes for high-quality software releases.

Develop and own selection, installation, calibration, and optimization of satellite manufacturing and QA test equipment. Build TPM and lean manufacturing processes, support facility layout, EH&S, tooling, metrology and production ramp-up. Work hands-on with production/test equipment and external vendors, and contribute to capex planning and continuous improvement.

Design, develop, and integrate satellite electrical subsystems including avionics, power distribution, and interconnects. Perform schematic capture and PCB layout, execute electrical test plans, troubleshoot hardware in the lab, support component selection, maintain ICDs, and support assembly, integration, and system-level testing.

Develop production-grade software for a satellite communication system, focusing on cybersecurity and cryptography. Implement cryptographic modules, defensive programming techniques, and lead ground software development.

As the first Brand Designer / Art Director, you'll develop and evolve Xona's visual identity, create compelling visual storytelling, and ensure brand consistency across multiple platforms.

The Site Reliability Engineer will architect and manage ground infrastructure for satellite systems, ensuring high availability, automating deployments, and optimizing data management systems.

The Sr. Flight Dynamics Engineer will design and analyze satellite constellation architecture, perform orbital analysis, and develop collision avoidance strategies for LEO missions.

The Senior Mechanical Engineer will lead mechanical trade studies for spacecraft launch systems, design deployment mechanisms, perform structural analysis, manage flight hardware, and collaborate with various teams while mentoring juniors.

Design and implement algorithms and software for orbit determination and maneuver execution, focusing on automated station-keeping and disposal.

Develop, maintain, and enhance embedded application software for satellite systems, focusing on software robustness and CI/CD automation.

Design and build mission control software for spacecraft operations, including backend services, APIs, and front-end interfaces while leading development processes.

Design and implement scalable backend services and APIs while building and maintaining device management systems. Develop internal operations software and ensure cloud-native microservices' reliability in AWS, using Python and C++ for various development tasks.

Lead the development and integration of flight software for autonomous spacecraft operation, focusing on GNC algorithms, state machines, and testing.

As a Sr. FPGA Engineer, you will design space-based navigation payloads, creating RTL for FPGAs, and developing secure hardware modules. You will work on signal processing systems, collaborate on satellite hardware functionality, and simulate as well as test designs for reliability in space environments.
