Umbra builds next-generation space systems that observe the Earth in unprecedented fidelity.
Our mission: Deliver global omniscience.
To stay ahead of climate change, geopolitical risk, and other major crises and issues, we need a global understanding of what is changing, where, and how fast. Umbra provides easy access to the highest quality commercial satellite data available, which is an indispensable tool for the growing number of organizations monitoring the Earth. We empower our customers to create the solutions that inform, inspire, and address our planet’s most pressing needs. We’re helping to create a brand new industry that has never meaningfully existed before.
We are looking for a Senior Spacecraft Systems Engineer who brings a wealth of experience in space systems. Umbra is vertically integrated, developing high performance systems for remote sensing and communication, as well as the avionics and structures to support the mission. This role is centered on technical excellence, offering both ownership and oversight across the product line. The ideal candidate will seamlessly integrate traditional spacecraft design principles with the agility of commercial methodologies to achieve groundbreaking capabilities and exceptional results.
A strong focus on practical systems engineering processes, as opposed to purely theoretical ones, is crucial. Candidates should be ready to dive into technical specifics and adapt processes as required. Furthermore, the ability to mentor and support the growth of junior engineers is vital, as this role plays a significant part in their technical development. Collaborating with leadership throughout the Space Systems Business Group is also an essential aspect of this position.
This position is located onsite in our Santa Barbara, CA office.
