Senior Automation & Controls Engineer
K2 is building the largest and highest-power satellites ever flown, unlocking performance levels previously out of reach across every orbit. Backed by over $1 billion in total funding from leading investors including…
Senior Avionics Systems Engineer
Responsible Engineer for avionics on K2 Space's high-power satellites — owning system design, analysis, testing, and integration across computing, power, RF, GNC sensors, and harnessing, with focus on spacecraft charging, radiation, EMI, and RF. Builds test infrastructure and automation in Python and Rust.
Senior Build & Integration Engineer
Leads the build and integration campaign of K2 Space's Mega-class satellite in Los Angeles as it moves to high-rate production — developing build flows, dispositioning nonconformances, serving as TVAC integration point of contact, and evaluating designs for manufacturability. Core work involves CAD, cleanroom/ESD handling, and GSE tooling; Python/Rust, GraphQL, and Linux are nice-to-haves.
Senior Development Test Engineer
At satellite maker K2 Space, this senior engineer owns development testing from component to full-vehicle level — designing test hardware and fixtures in CAD/FEA, running structural, thermal, fluid, dynamic, and electromechanical test campaigns, and mentoring the team. On-site in Los Angeles; $140k–$175k plus equity.
Senior Electro-Mechanical Engineering Technician
K2 is building the largest and highest-power satellites ever flown, unlocking performance levels previously out of reach across every orbit. Backed by over $1 billion in total funding from leading investors including…
Senior EMI/EMC Test Engineer
Senior EMI/EMC Test Engineer at K2 Space in Los Angeles owns EMC test architecture, automation, and execution for high-power satellite avionics — defining compliance philosophy, building test infrastructure, and mitigating EMI alongside EE/ME teams. Stack includes EMI/EMC standards (MIL-STD-461, SMC-S-008), Python/Rust test automation, and Altium Designer.
Senior Firmware Engineer, Vehicle
Senior embedded/firmware engineer at a satellite manufacturer who writes low-level Rust on microcontrollers to control spacecraft subsystems (propulsion, attitude control, power), from hardware bring-up through flight-ready fault-tolerant real-time control of 20kW+ satellites, debugging HW/FW with JTAG/SWD, logic analyzers, and oscilloscopes.
Senior FPGA Engineer
Design, implement, and verify mission-critical FPGA firmware for K2 Space's high-power satellites — owning RTL architecture in VHDL/SystemVerilog that controls propulsion, attitude control, RF, and power systems, and validating designs via simulation, bench testing, and hardware-in-the-loop testbeds.
Senior Ground Software Engineer
Senior Ground Software Engineer building the platform used to build, test, and fly K2's satellites and customer payloads — satellite command & control, constellation operations, and mission automation on a Rust backend with a TypeScript/Vue frontend. On-site at K2's Torrance, CA headquarters, with mentoring and on-call support duties.
Senior HR Business Partner
Senior HR Business Partner at K2 Space, a Series C aerospace startup building large satellites in Los Angeles. Shape culture and people strategy by partnering with engineering leadership on employee relations, compliance with California labor law, manager coaching, and talent retention initiatives at a fast-growing company.
Senior Integration & Test Engineer
Leads ground-side integration and test campaigns for K2 Space's high-power satellites in Los Angeles — operating spacecraft, interpreting telemetry, resolving anomalies, mentoring engineers, and shaping test processes for at-rate production. Requires 5+ years in integration/test engineering and spacecraft testing; Python/Rust/Linux are a plus.
