Location: Playa Vista, California (in-person, five days per week)

Outpost is an orbital logistics company rewriting the rules of global logistics by building reusable Earth-return vehicles that unlock in-space manufacturing, on-orbit warehousing, and 60-minute global delivery through space.

Our CarryAll vehicle family returns payloads ranging from 200 kilograms to 10 metric tons, lands within 10 meters of its target, and can then be refurbished and launched again. One vehicle, many missions: responsive logistics and precision delivery for national security; commercial cargo moved with real cadence; R&D payloads flown, tested, and refined across repeatable cycles; and critical aid delivered where roads and runways can’t reach.

The demand is already here, validated through defense and civil agreements and supported by a growing pipeline of government and commercial customers.

We have the customers, the team, and a clear technical path ahead of us. We’re building the return lane. Come build it with us.

Use your imagination, the space is infinite with possibilities, you’ll work at a place where we exist to accelerate the transition of industry off Earth. In the near term, that means building the return lane from space and making it so useful that we have created various forms of use cases for what we are building here for our customers. Be part of a space start-up, owning the processes and tooling that enable rapid, reliable hardware development. We are looking for passionate, highly-driven people who thrive in a build-heavy environment and can move seamlessly between execution, growth, and focus. We are not another rocket company.
