IT Administrator

 

Loft Orbital’s mission is to make space simple for organizations, and Loft IT’s mission is to make work simple for employees. Our Golden office is growing, and we’re looking for an IT Administrator to join our international IT team. You’ll be the go-to person on the ground for our two Colorado sites, while contributing to IT activities across all of our offices worldwide.

You’ll focus most of your time on end-user support in office, with a path to owning our global IT service desk within your first six months. We’re looking for someone who is passionate about technology, has a customer-centric personality, and can translate technical problems into plain English. This is not an entry-level position, and there’s plenty of room for mentorship to help you grow your technical chops!

Your time will be split across four main areas: Operational Support, Onboarding & Application Administration, Documentation, and AV support.


Operational Support (50%): The IT program at Loft is designed to empower our users to do their best work.

Onboarding & Application Administration (25%): Keep Loft running smoothly.

Documentation (15%): At Loft, documentation is as important as completing the task.

Facilities Care (10%): Join the team in charge of taking care of our Colorado offices.

Who We Are

 

Loft Orbital builds “shareable” satellites, providing a fast & simple path to orbit for organizations that require access to space. Powered by our hardware & software products, we operate satellites, fly customer payloads onboard, and handle entire missions from end to end - significantly reducing the lead-time and risk of a traditional space mission.

 

Our standard interface enables us to fly multiple customer payloads on the same satellite, with capabilities such as earth imagery, weather & climate /science data collection, IoT connectivity, in-orbit demonstrations, and national security missions. Our customers trust us to manage their space infrastructure, so they can focus on what matters most to them: operating their mission and collecting their data.

 

At Loft, you’ll be given the autonomy and ownership to solve significant challenges, but with a close-knit and supportive team at your back. We believe that diversity and community are the foundation of an open culture. We are committed to hiring the best people regardless of background and make their time at Loft the most fulfilling period of their career.

 

We value kind, supportive and team-oriented collaborators. It is also crucial for us that you are a problem solver and a great communicator. As our team is international, you will need strong English skills to better collaborate, easily communicate complex ideas and convey important messages.

 

With 3 satellites on-orbit and a wave of exciting missions launching soon, we are scaling up quickly across our offices in San Francisco, CA | Golden, CO | and Toulouse, France.

 

 *Research shows that while men apply to jobs where they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other underrepresented people tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the qualifications. At Loft, we value respectful debate and people who aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions.  We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don’t check all the boxes.
