Job description
Senior / Principal Flight Software Engineer | Space
We’re working with a well-funded space technology company building next-generation spacecraft and reentry systems, enabling manufacturing in orbit and bringing materials back to Earth.
As they scale their engineering team for upcoming missions, they’re looking for experienced Flight Software Engineers to take ownership of how these spacecraft operate in orbit and across the full mission lifecycle.
What you’ll be doing:
Developing C++ flight software that controls spacecraft systems and behaviour in orbit
Building software on embedded processors using RTOS, embedded Linux, or bare-metal environments
Working across system layers, from low-level components through to application-level logic
Integrating with GNC, avionics, and other critical spacecraft subsystems
Contributing to testing, verification, and validation of mission-critical software
What they’re looking for:
5+ years (Senior) or 8+ years (Principal) software engineering experience
Strong C++ in embedded or real-time systems
Experience working on systems that interact closely with hardware
Background in aerospace, robotics, automotive, or other safety-critical systems is a plus
Ability to work onsite in El Segundo
Why this role:
Own how spacecraft behave in orbit, not just individual components
Work on real mission-critical systems with direct impact
Join a high-calibre team from leading aerospace and tech companies
Equity as part of the compensation package
Comprehensive medical, dental and vision coverage
Daily lunch provided onsite and regular team dinners
Strong long-term growth potential in a scaling company
Please note: This role requires a US Citizen or Green Card Holder (Compliant with ITAR)
