K2 is building the largest and highest-power satellites ever flown, unlocking performance levels previously out of reach across every orbit. Backed by $450M from leading investors including Altimeter Capital, Redpoint Ventures, T. Rowe Price, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Alpine Space Ventures, and others – with an additional $500M in signed contracts across commercial and US government customers – we’re mass-producing the highest-power satellite platforms ever built for missions from LEO to deep space.   The rise of heavy-lift launch vehicles is shifting the industry from an era of mass constraint to one of mass abundance, and we believe this new era demands a fundamentally different class of spacecraft. Engineered to survive the harshest radiation environments and to fully capitalize on today’s and tomorrow’s massive rockets, K2 satellites deliver unmatched capability at constellation scale and across multiple orbits.   With multiple launches planned through 2026 and 2027, we're Building Bigger to develop the solar system and become a Kardashev Type II (K2) civilization.  If you are a motivated individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and you're excited about contributing to the success of a groundbreaking Series C space startup, we’d love for you to apply.   The Role   Can you bring order to chaos and keep programs on track when the stakes are sky-high? We’re looking for a Program Scheduler to architect and maintain end-to-end development timelines across diverse projects – from initial concept studies to on-orbit testing. You will operate across engineering, operations, and production teams to create detailed program plans and scalable solutions to drive execution for multiple programs. This role uniquely spans both government and commercial efforts, requiring a dynamic approach to planning across multiple priorities and stakeholders.   You’ll collaborate with technical leads and program managers to track milestones, flag risks, and keep delivery aligned with aggressive schedules. This role demands both strategic insight and hands-on execution, coordinating non-recurring engineering, spacecraft builds, ground infrastructure, software development, and launch operations. If you're energized by solving complex scheduling puzzles and want to help shape the future of National Security and commercial space, this is your mission.   Responsibilities   Own and drive master schedules for new satellite programs from inception through launch and on-orbit operations   Develop, communicate, and deliver clear, data-driven critical path schedules and progress updates to internal teams and customers   Collaborate with engineering, operations, and production teams to assure alignment to ground truth milestones   Rapidly assess new and ongoing projects, identify required dependencies from internal and external stakeholders   Gain deep operational insight into K2’s engineering, manufacturing, and launch workflows to drive accurate schedules and process improvements   Lead fast-paced, high impact reviews as needed to keep plans current and actionable   Build schedule tools and reports to enable time-relevant decision-making   Proactively monitor engineering data sources to enable more accurate schedules   Qualifications   Bachelor’s degree in business, engineering, finance, operations management, or a related field   3+ years of experience with project planning and integrated master scheduling    Experience integrating schedules within the same tool, and from third parties and various data sources   Experience with Smartsheet, MS Project, Primavera, and/or other similar-to schedule applications or processes   Nice to have    Experience working in a fast-paced
