Job Description

Please Note: To conform with the United States Government Space Technology Export Regulations, the applicant must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., conditional resident, asylee or refugee (protected individuals as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3)), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.

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.

CesiumAstro is seeking a Senior Program Manager — Global Infrastructure & Facilities to lead execution of large-scale capital projects supporting the company’s next phase of operational and manufacturing growth. This role is responsible for delivering the physical infrastructure required to support payload manufacturing, satellite manufacturing, industrialization initiatives, test infrastructure, and future international expansion.

The Senior Program Manager will own site development and infrastructure execution from early-stage planning through operational handoff, including real estate coordination, permitting, construction, utilities, infrastructure readiness, and transition into manufacturing activation. This individual will serve as the primary execution lead across multiple concurrent domestic and international capital programs and will work closely with Operations, Manufacturing, Engineering, Supply Chain, Finance, and executive leadership.

This role operates within a highly integrated execution model where facilities are not considered complete until validated against operational and production requirements. The Senior Program Manager will therefore be expected to coordinate heavily with manufacturing and operational stakeholders to ensure all infrastructure aligns with long-term production capability and industrialization objectives.

The ideal candidate combines strong capital project execution capability with strategic thinking, operational awareness, and the ability to drive complex, cross-functional programs in a fast-paced aerospace and defense environment.
