About the role
The strongest candidates will be able to quickly become experts in both Quindar’s platform and a customer’s mission. They will be comfortable moving between architecture, proposal strategy, customer conversations, requirements, verification, product gaps, and execution risk. They will know how to create structure where it does not yet exist, communicate tradeoffs clearly, and drive teams toward a shared technical outcome.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years of relevant experience in satellite ground systems, mission integration, systems engineering, technical sales, mission operations, software platform engineering, government aerospace programs, spacecraft systems, or a related field
- Experience working with complex technical systems that require coordination across software, hardware, operations, customer, and program stakeholders
- Demonstrated ability to understand a technical system deeply and translate customer or mission needs into executable architecture, requirements, scope, and delivery plans
- Experience supporting customer-facing technical work such as solution architecture, technical proposals, design reviews, requirements discussions, integration planning, or technical program execution
- Familiarity with satellite operations, TT&C concepts, ground system architectures, mission operations workflows, or spacecraft-to-ground interfaces
- Strong technical communication skills, including the ability to write clearly, present technical concepts, and create structured documentation
More about this role
Quindar is seeking a Mission Integration Engineer to help define, architect, and deliver integrated satellite ground systems for commercial and government customers.
The Mission Integration team owns the technical path from opportunity shaping through verified mission deployment. This includes solutions and sales engineering, technical proposal development, solution architecture, product strategy input, and formal systems engineering functions during execution. Mission Integration Engineers become deep subject matter experts on both Quindar’s platform and the customer’s mission, translating mission needs into executable technical solutions and ensuring those solutions are delivered, verified, and accepted.
This is a highly cross-functional role. You will work closely with both customers and Quindar teams in sales, product, software engineering, forward-deployed engineering, and customer success. You will help shape contract scope, define mission architectures, identify product gaps, manage requirements and verification outcomes, and ensure Quindar’s software is aligned to the mission’s operational, technical, and programmatic needs.
