In this role, you'll be the go-to person for a wide range of HR activities, including HR administration, recruitment, learning & development, and backup payroll support.

You'll support an environment full of engineers, specialists, and problem solvers—people who value quality, collaboration, and getting things right. Whether you're coordinating recruitment activities, managing HR administration, supporting employee development initiatives, or acting as a backup for payroll processes, you'll play a key role in helping our people and organization succeed.

We'd love to hear how your expertise, energy, and ideas can help us build the next chapter of space together.
