Astranis builds advanced satellites for high orbits, expanding humanity’s reach into the solar system. Today Astranis satellites provide dedicated, secure networks to highly-sophisticated customers across the globe – large enterprises, sovereign governments, and the US military. 

With five satellites on orbit and many more set to launch soon, the company is servicing a backlog of more than $1 billion of commercial contracts. Astranis is the preferred satellite communications partner for buyers with stringent requirements for uptime, data security, network visibility, and customization.

Astranis has raised over $1.2 billion from some of the world’s best investors, including Andreessen Horowitz, Baillie Gifford, Blackrock, Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, and Snowpoint, and employs a team of 500 engineers and entrepreneurs. Astranis designs, builds, and operates its satellites out of its 153,000 sq. ft. headquarters in Northern California, USA.

As Regulatory Policy Analyst at Astranis, you will be responsible for performing research on complex Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulatory constructs, preparing satellite and earth station applications, tracking those applications (and ensuring that they are ultimately granted!), and writing comments that persuade government officials to our point of view. You will work closely with engineers across the company, as well as the Spectrum Engineers and attorneys on the Regulatory Team. As Astranis continues launching satellites to connect millions around the world, we need to secure orbital slots and regulatory approvals.

If you are detail oriented, a problem solver, and thrive in a fast paced environment you should apply!
