Teams at Lodestar Space

Build and maintain Lodestar’s mission simulation environment for autonomous space defense systems. Responsibilities include developing high-fidelity sensor and orbital environment models in Unreal Engine, creating software- and hardware-in-the-loop test benches, designing distributed simulation services, and owning telemetry and regression tooling. The role collaborates with perception, prediction, decision, and mission teams to establish simulation fidelity and validate flight software across reproducible scenarios and CI pipelines.

Own Lodestar’s pre-solicitation government business development pipeline across national security and space agencies. Build working-level relationships, shape requirements, pursue non-traditional acquisition pathways, identify and track opportunities, maintain CRM accuracy, represent the company at industry and classified events, and coordinate teaming and proposal inputs. The role requires deep federal acquisition knowledge, technical fluency in space systems, a strong government network, and eligibility for a Secret clearance.

Lead end-to-end federal capture and proposal operations for high-value defense and space opportunities. Develop capture strategies, shape requirements with government stakeholders, manage proposal development and compliance, write and edit technical and executive content, maintain proposal libraries, conduct win/loss analyses, and build a capture team to grow Lodestar's federal business.
