About the role
Loft Orbital flies other people's payloads and software on standardized satellites, and we are building the first marketplace for space-based AI applications: the store where partners publish, deploy, and monetize AI solutions that run on satellites in orbit. We are hiring the founding developer of that marketplace. You will work directly with the Director of Marketplace to take the platform from MVP to the system behind dozens of partner solutions, on a small team where you own features end-to-end and ship weekly.
What they're looking for
- 4+ years building and shipping full-stack products
- Experience with Sprint development
- Strong TypeScript/React or Vue on the front end and solid backend experience in either Python, Go, or Node
- Cloud-native by default (we run on GCP): containers/kubernetes, managed services, infrastructure as code
- Comfortable with API design, OAuth, and multi-tenant authorization
- Fluent with AI-assisted development workflows and expected to use them
