About Satellogic


Satellogic is a vertically integrated Earth Observation company that designs, manufactures, and operates satellite systems, delivering decision-grade insights at scale to government and commercial customers.


We build space systems end-to-end, from satellite design and manufacturing to launch and on-orbit operations, giving us the ability to deploy quickly, operate reliably, and support persistent monitoring across regions and priority areas. Our approach moves customers beyond one-off imagery toward continuous awareness and alert-driven decision-making, with flexible pathways that can evolve from managed monitoring to full satellite ownership and sovereign control.


Our technology supports a wide range of use cases across climate monitoring, agriculture, energy, infrastructure, defense and intelligence, helping organizations detect change, manage risk, and plan with confidence.


With a team distributed across five countries, Satellogic brings together expertise in satellite engineering, software development, data science, manufacturing, operations, and go-to-market. We’re a group of purpose-driven builders who value ownership, curiosity, and execution—and who work with humility, honesty, and empathy.


About the position


As a Technical Project Manager at Satellogic, you’ll be the operational linchpin between our mission sales, engineering, and delivery teams—ensuring that every satellite mission we commit to is executed on time, within scope, and to our customers’ highest expectations. You’ll translate complex technical requirements into actionable project plans, align resources across disciplines, and manage customer relationships through all phases of mission delivery. From the first proposal draft to the final mission delivery, you’ll drive clarity and accountability across teams. This role requires a mix of technical understanding, meticulous organization, and excellent interpersonal skills to coordinate workstreams within a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.


Location: Europe, North America, or Argentina.


Travel: Successful candidates can expect a travel requirement of 25% of the time.  

 

Objectives of this Role


  • Lead the planning and execution of complex satellite mission delivery projects, ensuring technical, schedule, and contractual commitments are met.
  • Partner with Sales, Engineering, Global Supply Chain, Finance and Compliance teams during pre-sales to scope mission proposals, build realistic timelines, and develop implementation plans that align with internal capacity and customer expectations.
  • Develop and maintain comprehensive project plans that detail tasks, dependencies, resources, and risks for every phase—manufacturing, integration, launch, commissioning and operations.
  • Serve as the primary customer point of contact during project delivery, providing regular updates, managing expectations, and ensuring alignment between Satellogic and customer teams.
  • Coordinate input and collaboration from cross-functional teams across Satellogic, including Manufacturing, Mission & Operations, and Legal, to resolve issues and maintain momentum.
  • Drive effective communication and risk management, proactively escalating challenges and identifying mitigation paths before issues impact delivery.
  • Ensure product and quality assurance to the customer for all mission deliverables.


Required Skills and Qualifications


  • 5+ years of experience in technical program or project management, preferably in aerospace, satellite systems, or complex engineering environments.
  • Proven ability to develop and manage detailed project plans across multiple workstreams and stakeholders.
  • Fluency in the language of space projects, with familiarity in ECSS, NTSS, or similar standards.
  • Strong understanding of systems engineering principles, mission delivery processes, and the interdependencies across design, production, and operations.
  • Experience in building and maintaining customer relationships throughout the lifecycle of multi-phase technical projects.
  • Comfortable with navigating ambiguity and prioritizing competing demands in dynamic, cross-functional environments.
  • Excellent organizational and communication skills—able to translate technical findings into clear business context for diverse audiences.
  • Ownership mindset with a proactive, solution-oriented approach to problem solving.
  • PRINCE2, PMP, PMI-ACP or CSM certification preferred but not essential.
  • Education: BS in aerospace or engineering is preferred. 5+ years experience in lieu of education.
