The posting

Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

We are scaling a portfolio of U.S. Government programs, and are hiring the person who will own how this company plans and schedules that work.

This is not a role that inherits a scheduling function. You will define it. You will set the scheduling standard, build the toolchain and templates, establish the status and baseline control process, support Program Managers and technical leads to work within it, and then own the Integrated Master Schedule for the portfolio on an ongoing basis.

We are looking for a career space program scheduler — someone who has built and defended an IMS on satellite, payload, or ground systems development programs. You will have direct authority over scheduling methodology across Government Programs.

What You'll Do:

  • Establish the company's scheduling standard for Government Programs: WBS and coding structures, calendars, activity and milestone conventions, constraint and logic rules, baseline control, and file governance.
  • Build the Microsoft Project template architecture, custom fields, reporting views, and health-check tooling that every program will run on.
  • Write and own the scheduling process documentation, including the baseline change control procedure and the recurring status cycle.
  • Train and drive adoption across Program Managers, Chief Engineers, and Mission Systems Engineers.
  • Define how schedule data integrates with cost, risk, staffing, and customer reporting as those functions mature.
  • Serve as the authoritative owner of all Microsoft Project files and the Integrated Master Schedule for every program in the Government Programs portfolio.
  • Build and maintain master/subproject architectures with cross-program dependencies, shared resource structures, and clean vertical and horizontal traceability.
  • Align schedule architecture to the contract WBS, WBS dictionary, SOW/PWS scope, and CDRL delivery obligations.
  • Establish performance measurement baselines and control changes to them through a documented, auditable process.
  • Own critical path and driving path analysis, float analysis, and schedule margin strategy across programs.
  • Run schedule health assessments and drive findings to closure by consulting responsible leads.
  • Build and run what-if, recovery, and de-scope scenarios to support program and executive decision-making.
  • Perform schedule risk analysis and tie risk register items to schedule margin and contingency.
  • Identify schedule risk before the program owner does — long-lead procurement, test asset availability, integration and range access, qualification cycles, and software and ground segment dependencies.
  • Own schedule content and narrative for Government program reviews (PMRs, SRRs, PDRs, CDRs, TIMs).
  • Prepare and deliver schedule-related contract deliverables and Government reporting.
  • Support capture and proposal efforts with proposal IMS/IMP structures, schedule basis of estimate, milestone and payment schedules, and schedule realism defense.
  • Build the scheduling and planning capability as the portfolio grows, including scoping and mentoring additional schedulers or planners over time.

What You'll Bring:

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Physics, Business, or a related field; equivalent experience will be considered.
  • 10+ years of program scheduling, planning, or project controls experience, with a substantial majority in the space industry — satellite, spacecraft, payload, launch, or ground segment development programs.
  • Demonstrated ownership of an IMS on at least one major space development program, from initial build through baseline through execution and delivery.
  • Track record of defining and rolling out scheduling process, standards, or tooling across an organization — not solely executing within someone else's system.
  • Expert-level Microsoft Project proficiency: master/subproject architectures, external dependencies, resource pools, custom fields and formulas, reporting views, and baseline management.
  • Deep command of schedule logic, critical path method, float and margin management, and network analysis.
  • Fluency with schedule health assessment methodology.
  • Working knowledge of U.S. Government contract types (FFP, CPFF, CPIF, OTA) and how contract structure drives schedule, deliverable, and reporting obligations.
  • Credibility and confidence to defend schedule realism.
  • Must be a U.S. Person as defined under ITAR (22 CFR §120.62) and eligible to access export-controlled technical data.
  • Must be eligible and willing to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance.

Bonus Points For The Following:

  • Active U.S. Government security clearance.
  • Experience with Earned Value Management Systems, including cost and schedule integration and IPMDAR, CPR, or equivalent reporting.
  • Experience developing and maintaining resource-loaded schedules to support staffing and capacity forecasting.
  • Experience scheduling integrated hardware, software, and ground/site-integration efforts within a single IMS.
  • Experience supporting DCMA or Government schedule surveillance, Integrated Baseline Reviews, or joint schedule reviews.
  • Experience in a startup or high-growth environment where process had to be built rather than inherited.

Additional Requirements

This is a full time, exempt position. The total compensation packaged will be determined by various factors such as your relevant job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used—so we’re looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience on LEO satellite component development, design and in-orbit activities. If that’s your experience – then we’ll be immediately wow-ed. E-Space is not currently able to provide employment sponsorship for candidates who do not hold work authorization for the location of this role.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
