ABOUT THE TEAM Anduril's Space team is expanding our AI-powered capabilities into the final frontier, enhancing Space Domain Awareness, Space Control, and Command and Control for U.S. military and allied partners. We're developing fully integrated hardware and software systems, including Lattice for Space Missions and modular payloads, to address growing threats in space and ensure our Guardians maintain a decisive advantage in this contested war-fighting domain.
Rendezvous and proximity operations are where spacecraft operations stop being a checklist and start being a craft. You own that craft at Anduril. As a Spacecraft Operations Systems Engineer for RPO, you own how our spacecraft plan, rehearse, and fly close to other objects.
You'll validate procedures against hardware-in-the-loop testbeds, build and run day-in-the-life and contingency sims, and push ops constraints back into the GNC, flight software, and ground software designs while those designs can still change. For Colorado based applicants,



please note this will be a remote role expected to be filled out of the state of Colorado.
Design and own RPO mission plans: relative motion design, approach and hold-point sequencing, delta-V budgets, and the timeline that ties them to comm passes, lighting, and ground contact
Own the mission operations plans and procedures for spacecraft programs across all phases, including LEOP, commissioning, on-orbit checkout, and operations
Feed operational constraints back into GNC, flight software, ground software, and comms design
Create and analyze the metrics used to debug and monitor vehicle and campaign performance
Support demanding schedules during ground testing, launch windows, and on-orbit operations
Strong engineering background from industry or school, ideally in Aerospace Engineering, Astrodynamics, Computer Science, or another engineering field
~4+ years of professional spacecraft operations, mission planning, or flight dynamics experience
~ Direct RPO experienc
