• A track record of succeeding in ambiguous, fast-moving environments where requirements evolve through direct iteration with users

• The ability to move fluidly between conversations with customer scientists and engineers and deep technical implementation work

• Experience deploying software into complex production environments

• A genuine interest in building software that enables breakthrough scientific and industrial applications

Orbital is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
