Quantum Space is redefining mobility and maneuverability in space. Our high-mobility spacecraft platforms support national security, civil, and commercial missions with unmatched flexibility and propulsion capability. We build fast and iterate quickly. Who We're Looking For We are seeking a technically strong and mission-focused Spacecraft Mission Systems Engineer to help define, architect, analyze, and integrate mission capabilities for our next-generation spacecraft platforms. In this role, you will translate customer objectives and mission needs into spacecraft mission architectures, operational concepts, performance requirements, and mission design solutions. You will work across spacecraft systems engineering, propulsion, guidance, navigation and control (GNC), flight software, avionics, ground systems, and mission operations to ensure spacecraft capabilities align with mission objectives and operational requirements. You will play a critical role in connecting mission-level objectives with spacecraft design and implementation, evaluating mission feasibility, developing operational scenarios, assessing spacecraft performance, and ensuring technical alignment throughout the mission lifecycle. Your responsibilities will span early mission concept development and architecture through detailed design, integration, verification, and flight operations readiness. This position is ideal for an engineer who combines strong spacecraft systems knowledge with mission analysis and operational expertise, enjoys solving complex multidisciplinary challenges, and understands how spacecraft capabilities translate into successful mission execution. You will collaborate closely with engineering teams, program leadership, customers, and mission stakeholders to develop innovative solutions for demanding national security, civil, and commercial space missions. Where You'll Make an Impact Translate customer mission objectives, operational needs, and mission constraints into spacecraft…
