At CesiumAstro, we are developers and pioneers of out-of-the-box communication systems for satellites, UAVs, launch vehicles, and other space and airborne platforms. We take pride in our dynamic and cross-functional work environment, which allows us to learn, develop, and engage across our organization. If you are looking for hands-on, interactive, and autonomous work, CesiumAstro is the place for you. We are actively seeking passionate, collaborative, energetic, and forward-thinking individuals to join our team.

We are looking to add a Director, Solutions/Conceptual Design to our team. In this role you will lead the organization responsible for developing the company’s end-to-end technical solutions for new customer opportunities and strategic pursuits. The Director oversees a team of Communication Systems Architects who combine deep domain expertise with broad systems knowledge to define differentiated, technically credible, and executable solutions.

As a senior technical leader within Product & Solutions, the Director works closely with Product, Business Development, customers, and Engineering to translate mission needs into complete system architectures. The organization owns the technical solution from early concept and customer engagement through capture, proposal, contract definition, and transition to execution.

The Director ensures the architecture team looks beyond individual engineering disciplines to optimize the complete solution, balancing mission performance, technical risk, cost, schedule, product reuse, and competitive differentiation. The Director also helps shape product and technology strategy by identifying common customer needs, emerging capabilities, and architectural investments that can be leveraged across future opportunities.
