Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Own and execute quality plans from receiving inspection through vehicle handoff to ensure satellite reliability. Lead failure investigations and root cause analyses to improve production processes and influence future design iterations.
Requires a Bachelor's degree in a relevant engineering discipline and 6+ years of experience in high-volume rapid production environments. Must have strong hardware manufacturing experience and the ability to work hands-on in a production setting.
K2 is building the largest and highest-power satellites ever flown, unlocking performance levels previously out of reach across every orbit. Backed by over $1 billion in total funding from leading investors including Altimeter Capital, ICONIQ, Kleiner Perkins, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Redpoint Ventures, and T. Rowe Price — and with over $1 billion in signed contracts across commercial and US government customers, we're mass-producing the highest-power satellite platforms ever built for missions from LEO to deep space.
The rise of heavy-lift launch vehicles is shifting the industry from an era of mass constraint to one of mass abundance, and we believe this new era demands a fundamentally different class of spacecraft. Engineered to survive the harshest radiation environments and to fully capitalize on today's and tomorrow's massive rockets, K2 satellites deliver unmatched capability at constellation scale and across multiple orbits.
With multiple launches in 2027 and plans to scale to 100 satellites a year, we're Building Bigger — helping develop the solar system and build toward a Kardashev Type II (K2) civilization. If you are a motivated individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and you're excited about contributing to the success of a high-growth Series D-funded company, we'd love for you to apply.
The Role
As a Senior Build Reliability Engineer, you’ll be the person who ensures that every satellite we ship is built to fly. You will own quality and reliability from the moment raw materials hit our dock to the moment a finished vehicle leaves for the launch site. You’ll dig into failures, find the root cause, and make sure it never happens again. You’ll write the quality plans and build the processes that let us scale from building a few spacecraft to building many, without compromising the reliability that missions demand.
Being hands-on will be part of your routine as you’ll work alongside engineers and technicians, shaping how hardware gets built. You’ll influence design decisions with data from the production floor. You’ll help establish the manufacturing practices that will underpin Commercial, National Security, and Science missions spanning LEO, MEO, GEO, Cislunar, and Deep Space.
If you want to build the quality culture in a fast paced environment and enable high-rate satellite manufacturing at scale, this is the role.

Nice to Have
Compensation and Benefits:
If you don’t meet 100% of the preferred skills and experience, we encourage you to still apply! Building a spacecraft unlike any other requires a team unlike any other and non-traditional career twists and turns are encouraged!
If you need a reasonable accommodation as part of your application for employment or interviews with us, please let us know.
As defined in the ITAR, “U.S. Persons” include U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents (i.e., Green Card holders), and certain protected individuals (e.g., refugees/asylees, American Samoans). Please consult with a knowledgeable advisor if you are unsure whether you are a “U.S. Person.”
The person hired for this role will have access to information and items controlled by U.S. export control regulations, including the export control regulations outlined in the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR). The person hired for this role must therefore either be a “U.S. person” as defined by 22 C.F.R. § 120.15 or otherwise eligible for a federally issued export control license.
