Equity we want you to have an active role in our successUp to 35 days of Paid Time Off (vacations & RTT ) and flexible working hours we want you to be at your bestHealth and life insurance we care about your healthLunch Vouchers because lets be honest we love food! (we even have a slack channel about it #loft-gourmand)Cross-office travel opportunities between San Francisco Colorado and Toulouse to learn from our differencesCompany and team off-sites and many other events to work & celebrate togetherRelocation assistance to Toulouse when applicableResearch shows that while men apply to jobs where they meet an average of 60% of the criteria women and other underrepresented people tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the qualifications. At Loft we value respectful debate and people who arent afraid to challenge assumptions. We strongly encourage you to apply even if you dont check all the boxes.Who We Are
Loft : Space Made Simple.
Founded in 2017 Loft provides governments companies and research institutions with a fast reliable and simple way to deploy missions in orbit.
We integrate launch and operate spacecraft offering end-to-end missions as a service across Earth observation IoT connectivity on-orbit AI national security missions and more. Leveraging our existing space infrastructure and an extensive inventory of satellite buses Loft is reducing years-long integration and launch timelines to months. With more than 30 missions flown Lofts flight heritage and proven technologies enable customers to focus on their mission objectives.
With a growing fleet on track to reach 30 satellites by 2027 we are scaling up quickly across our offices in San Francisco CA Golden CO and Toulouse France to meet accelerating demand for space infrastructure.
