San Francisco, California, United States Astranis Full time
Astranis: Connecting the World through Innovation

Astranis is a pioneering company on a mission to bridge the digital divide by connecting the four billion people worldwide who currently lack internet access. We're doing this by building the next generation of smaller, more cost-effective spacecraft to bring the world online.


Our team has achieved remarkable milestones, including launching two satellites into orbit, signing ten commercial deals worth over $1 billion in revenue, raising over $500 million from top global investors, and recruiting a team of over 300 world-class engineers. We work out of our San Francisco office, which was once used to build ships during the World Wars.


Our satellites, which operate from geostationary orbit (GEO), weigh only 400 kg and utilize a proprietary software-defined radio payload. Each satellite can connect over two million people, and we're excited about the impact we'll soon have in the Philippines, Peru, Mexico, and more.


Backed by substantial funding and a passionate, collaborative team, we offer a rewarding work environment where you'll learn and make a significant impact, no matter where you are in your career.
