Larkspur Orbital builds ground-station software and operates antenna networks for small-satellite operators. We are hiring a Security Engineer to join the Security team.
Security here is an engineering discipline, not a checklist. You will review designs before they are built, find and fix weaknesses in what already exists, and build the guard rails that make the secure path the easy one for every engineer.
This is a hybrid role based in Huntsville, with two or three days a week in the office. It is a full-time, permanent position. The pay range for this role is $144,000–$182,000 per year.
