Wanna join the adventure?

Loft Orbital is looking for a Senior Full‑Stack Engineer to join our Oort team. Oort is our central web platform—a unified environment that consolidates all infrastructure data and tools, empowering Loft to streamline, integrate, and manage the entire mission lifecycle with unprecedented efficiency and transparency. Oort bridges the gap between diverse mission phases, operational teams, and business processes by centralizing essential information and workflows, establishing a standard for space mission execution at scale.

Build, and operate end‑to‑end features across backend services and web frontends that collect, manage, and surface critical infrastructure data for the full Loft mission lifecycle.

Design and implement APIs and integrations that connect tooling and data across teams and systems—then bring them to life with performant, accessible user interfaces.

Partner with program management, satellite engineering, operations, and business stakeholders to analyze and understand mission design, program, and business processes—and translate them into intuitive, reliable software.

Apply a product mindset across the stack: seek user feedback, identify friction in both backend workflows and UI/UX, and deliver solutions that meaningfully reduce complexity for the people and teams building and operating space infrastructure.

Demonstrated proficiency in Python for backend engineering.

Practical experience using Docker for containerization and deployment in scalable environments.

Experience in backend architecture, encompassing API design and robust database interactions.

Experience with modern frontend development, including component‑driven development and state management.

Experience building secure, accessible, and performant web applications, with attention to UX and reliability.

You have hands‑on experience building, operating, or integrating technologies for space missions and a passion for making complex, multi‑team technical endeavors more efficient and standardized.

You thrive on dissecting intricate business and technical processes, mapping them end‑to‑end—highlighting friction points and opportunities for unique solutions.

You excel in team environments, communicate complex ideas with clarity, and advocate for seamless collaboration between engineering, operations, and business functions.

You are a proactive problem solver and a respectful challenger of assumptions, comfortable owning features from design through production operations.

Fluency in English.

Experience in the design, modeling, or analysis of space missions, with an understanding of mission lifecycle complexities.

Proficiency with Django and GraphQL, and familiarity with modern cloud infrastructure platforms (e.g., GCP/AWS, Kubernetes).

Experience with frontend frameworks and tooling such as Next.js, Apollo, Vite, and component libraries/design systems.

Familiarity with testing tools across the stack (e.g., PyTest, Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright/Cypress) and strong CI/CD practices.
