E-Space is a global space company, bridging Earth and space with the world’s most sustainable Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite network to advance humanity, protect the planet, and enable smarter business. Backed by Space Capital.
About the role
You will work daily with systems, spacecraft, and ground engineers, and directly with your government program office. You need enough technical depth to challenge an estimate, recognize a risk before it shows up in a status report, and hold a credible programmatic conversation with a customer without an engineer in the room.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years managing government programs in aerospace, defense, or a comparable regulated environment
- Direct experience executing against government agreements — OTAs, FAR/DFARS-based contracts, SBIR/STTR, or task order vehicles — including deliverable management and modifications
- Track record carrying a single program through a full lifecycle, not just coordinating across many
- Track record building and maintaining an integrated master schedule that engineering actually uses, not one that exists for reporting
- Experience as a customer-facing program point of contact, including running formal reviews with real entry/exit criteria, action tracking, and closure
- Demonstrated ability to deliver in a matrix organization, holding a program together when the engineers doing the work report through a different chain

The Government Contracts team executes E-Space's US Government portfolio: the contracts, the customer relationships, and the delivery of the programs themselves. We are staffing dedicated project management to each of our five flagship programs. This role is assigned to one of them — with scope that may extend across a related capability area such as ground-based radar, space-based radar, or SIGINT and communications — and owns its execution day to day.
