Senior Software Engineer, Backend

At Slingshot Aerospace, we are at the forefront of a new space age, pioneering groundbreaking technologies to ensure the safety, sustainability, and security of orbital operations. Through our advanced platform, we are revolutionizing space domain awareness by transforming disparate data sources into a unified, comprehensive, and dynamic representation of the space environment. Our innovative approach leverages the power of artificial intelligence, machine learning, astrodynamics, and data fusion to provide unparalleled clarity in an increasingly congested and contested domain. We are not just tracking objects in space; we are building a digital twin of the entire orbital ecosystem. This allows us to deliver predictive analytics and actionable insights that empower our government and commercial partners to make critical decisions with confidence and at the speed of relevance. Our technology is essential for mitigating risks, optimizing satellite operations, and preserving the future of space for generations to come.

Our commitment to innovation is embodied in our suite of solutions, including the Slingshot Beacon, the world's first two-sided space traffic coordination platform, which is now utilized by over 90% of commercial low Earth orbit (LEO) spacecraft operators. We are continuously expanding our capabilities, such as the Slingshot Global Sensor Network, the largest commercial optical tracking system for satellites, and developing AI-powered technologies to detect and forecast GPS jamming threats. By acquiring and integrating leading platforms like Seradata, the industry's premier launch and spacecraft database, we enhance our ability to provide a holistic view of space activities. Slingshot Aerospace is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what's possible, developing cutting-edge solutions like the RAPTOR program, which uses AI for rapid reporting on satellite behavior. We are not merely participants in the space industry; we are actively shaping its future, ensuring that as humanity's presence in space grows, it does so in a secure and sustainable manner.
