About Varda Low Earth orbit is open for business. Varda is accelerating the development of commercial space infrastructure, from in-orbit pharmaceutical processing to reliable and economical reentry capsules. Varda’s…
Intern on a cybersecurity team reviewing alerts, configuring tools like CrowdStrike and Darktrace, and preparing audit documentation while learning compliance workflows.
Internship in Site Reliability Engineering at a space startup, deploying and managing cloud infrastructure using Kubernetes, Argo CD, and Linux tooling to ensure system reliability.
Hands-on propulsion engineer who owns the propulsion subsystem and flight hardware across Varda's spacecraft fleet — maintaining the system architecture, running performance analyses, designing and testing fluid/propulsion components, and supporting in-flight operations. Core tools include CAD (CATIA/SolidWorks/NX), FEA (ANSYS/NASTRAN), P&IDs, and Python automation.
Varda Space is hiring a Principal Fluid Systems Engineer in El Segundo, CA to define and lead development of first-of-their-kind electromechanical fluid-handling payloads that manufacture pharmaceuticals in microgravity and survive hypersonic reentry. The role spans requirements, architecture, precision valves/pumps/thermal control hardware, testing campaigns, and mentoring, using tools like Pytho
Designs and owns precision fluid-handling payload hardware that manufactures pharmaceuticals in microgravity and endures reentry — valves, pumps, manifolds, and thermal control — taking payloads from concept through launch, on-orbit operation, and recovery at Varda's El Segundo facility.
Oversees design, integration, and testing of avionics systems for Varda's Winnebago spacecraft, developing electrical architecture, running hardware-in-the-loop testbeds, and supporting launch and reentry mission operations. Core work involves Python, DAQ and test equipment, and cross-team systems engineering.
Designs, integrates, and tests avionics systems for Varda's Winnebago spacecraft, developing electrical architecture, running verification on flight and hardware-in-the-loop testbeds, and supporting mission operations through launch and reentry. Core work centers on avionics systems engineering, Python-based testing, and DAQ/test equipment.
Design, build, and operate test systems and HITL testbeds to stress-test and qualify spacecraft avionics hardware for Varda's Winnebago-class spacecraft, writing Python test software to execute procedures, analyze data, and generate reports. On-site role in El Segundo, CA.
Designs, builds, and operates test systems that stress-test and qualify spacecraft avionics hardware for Varda's Winnebago-class capsules, including environmental, acceptance, and hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) testing. Day-to-day work centers on Python test software, Git, and electronics test equipment, on-site in El Segundo, CA.
Designs, manufactures, and tests avionics hardware — flight computers, power systems, RF, and sensor boards — for Varda's spacecraft, owning mixed-signal PCB designs through the full lifecycle from requirements and schematic capture to environmental qualification (thermal, vibe, shock, TVAC, EMI). On-site in El Segundo, CA.
Varda Space is hiring a Principal Avionics Hardware Development Engineer in El Segundo, CA to architect and design flight-critical electronics — flight computers, power systems, and sensors — for satellite buses, reentry vehicles, and payloads. The work spans PCB schematic/layout, qualification testing (thermal, vibe, TVAC, EMI), and Python/MATLAB-based analysis.
Designs and owns flight-critical avionics hardware for Varda's satellite buses, reentry vehicles, and payloads, from schematic capture and PCB layout through validation and environmental qualification (thermal, vibe, TVAC, EMI). Core tech: mixed-signal and power electronics design, SPI/RS422/1000BASE-T protocols, plus Python/MATLAB for analysis.
Hands-on technical owner of the propulsion subsystem and flight hardware across Varda's satellite buses, covering architecture, analysis, mechanical design, testing, and ground/in-orbit operations. Core tools include CAD (CATIA/SolidWorks/NX), FEA (ANSYS/NASTRAN), P&IDs, and Python automation.
A hands-on mechanical engineer who designs, builds, and maintains ground test equipment (propulsion test stands, TVACs, centrifuges, DAQ and fluid/gas systems) that qualifies Varda's spaceflight hardware. The role blends mechanical design in SolidWorks/NX, electrical cabinet wiring with Altium/EPLAN, and Beckhoff TwinCAT PLC/EtherCAT automation.
