York Space Systems was founded to radically improve spacecraft affordability and reliability, transforming, and enabling next- generation space mission operations worldwide. Today, York is one of the most innovative aerospace companies, specializing in end-to-end customer solutions and the rapid production of spacecraft platforms. York's complete Space Segment Solution includes spacecraft production, payload integration, system integration & test, launch services, ground segment services, and mission operations, enabling customers to leverage York's existing technology solutions to get to orbit rapidly and responsively. We're looking to expand our team across the board.
We are looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer who is passionate about building software that pushes the bounds of what's possible. Our software is a modern web-based application (React/TypeScript, C# .NET) with a microservice infrastructure (Docker, Kafka, REST) that operators use to monitor and control constellations of spacecraft across several active missions.
This is an early-career role designed for engineers who are eager to grow quickly in a technically demanding environment. You'll work alongside experienced engineers who will support your development through mentorship, code reviews, and collaborative design discussions. As you ramp up, you'll take on real feature work like implementing UI components, building backend logic, fixing bugs, and contributing to the same platform that operators use to manage active satellite missions. The problems we work on are complex, and you will be supported by your team and leadership to engage with and grow into that complexity over time.
Prior space-industry experience is not required.
