At Stoke, we believe a thriving space economy will enable a vibrant, sustainable, and equitable future here on Earth. That is why we’re building Nova, our fully and rapidly reusable launch vehicle. Designed for daily flight, Nova tackles the core challenges of space transportation by reducing cost, increasing availability, and improving reliability. By radically lowering launch costs and increasing flight cadence, we’re helping create a truly scalable space industry. Our team is mission-driven, collaborative, and empowered to take ownership of their work. If you want to work alongside some of the most dedicated and talented people on Earth, we’d love to have you join us. Description Reusable launch systems depend on secure, resilient, and well-architected information systems. As an Information Security Systems Engineer , you will design, implement, document and continuously improve the technical security controls that protect Stoke’s infrastructure, engineering environments, manufacturing systems, and sensitive aerospace data. This is a hands-on security engineering role with ownership of Stoke’s evolving information security program. You will strengthen, maintain, and mature the technical controls that protect our infrastructure, engineering systems, and manufacturing environments, while driving risk management and framework alignment efforts. You will translate regulatory requirements (including NIST 800-53/171, FedRAMP, ISO 27001, and SOC frameworks) into practical, scalable controls embedded within our systems and maintain the documentation and evidence necessary to support audits and compliance activities.
