Description
Why LeoLabs?
At LeoLabs, we’re building the living map of activity in space. Through our proprietary global radar network and AI-enabled analytics platform, we collect millions of measurements daily on more than 25,000 objects in low Earth orbit (LEO). Our radar-powered intelligence protects billions in assets, monitors adversarial behavior, and ensures safe operations for commercial and government missions.
We’re not just building technology, we are redefining global security, safety, and transparency in space. As orbital activity accelerates and threats grow more complex, LeoLabs is a trusted partner for Space Domain Awareness, Space Traffic Management, and Satellite Operations for top-tier space operators and allied defense organizations.
If you're looking to work on mission-critical challenges at the forefront of aerospace, national security, and AI, your impact starts here.
The Opportunity
We are seeking an experienced and mission-driven Senior AI Engineer to join LeoLabs’ growing Insights team. You will play a critical role in designing, building, and operating AI- and machine learning-powered systems that enable real-time space domain awareness and drive customer-facing insights. You will work at the intersection of machine learning, data engineering, and software engineering—developing scalable pipelines, deploying models into production, and integrating AI capabilities into operational systems. This includes transforming large-scale sensor and orbital datasets into intelligent systems that detect atterns, identify anomalies, and generate predictive insights. This role is highly hands-on and systems-oriented, with a focus on helping to define and drive LeoLabs’ utilization of the latest Agentic AI technology. You will own the full lifecycle of AI solutions—from data and feature pipelines to model deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement—while helping define best practices for applied AI across LeoLabs.
