Quantum Space is redefining mobility and maneuverability in space. Our high-mobility spacecraft platforms support national security, civil, and commercial missions with unmatched flexibility and propulsion capability. We build fast and iterate quickly. Who We're Looking For We are seeking a Spacecraft Program Scheduler who will own and maintain the integrated program schedule for assigned spacecraft programs, serving as the authoritative source for schedule performance, critical path analysis, and schedule risk throughout the program lifecycle. Working within a lean, fast-moving team, the Scheduler will build and maintain Microsoft Project-based Integrated Master Schedules that span the full program lifecycle — from program start and system requirements review (SRR) through preliminary design review (PDR), critical design review (CDR), assembly, integration and test (AIT), and launch campaign. The Scheduler will translate engineering and manufacturing inputs into a logical, resource-informed schedule that reflects the true plan of record. On a day-to-day basis, the Scheduler attends team meetings, captures action items and schedule impacts, updates the IMS to reflect program progress, and flags emerging critical path risks to the Program Manager. The Scheduler prepares schedule status packages for internal leadership and customer reviews, including Monthly Progress Reviews (MPRs), Program Management Reviews (PMRs), and Integrated Baseline Reviews (IBRs). When schedule variances occur, the Scheduler leads the development of recovery plans, conducts root cause analysis, and communicates impacts and corrective actions clearly to both internal and external stakeholders. The Scheduler will need to manage schedule integration across including coordinating with subcontractors and suppliers to maintain sub-tier schedule visibility, tracking long-lead hardware deliveries, and ensuring launch site and range interface milestones are incorporated into the program schedule. The Scheduler will also support proposal teams by developing schedule basis of estimates (BOEs) and schedule risk assessments for new business pursuits. This is a high-visibility role in a growing company at a critical phase of its development. The right candidate brings deep knowledge of space program scheduling requirements, a hands-on approach to Microsoft Project, and the communication skills to translate schedule data into clear, actionable information for engineers, executives, and government customers alike. Where You'll Make an Impact Schedule Development & Maintenance Develop and maintain Integrated Master Schedules (IMS) using Microsoft Project for multiple concurrent spacecraft programs, Build and manage detailed Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)-linked schedules from proposal through program execution, including design, fabrication, assembly, integration, test (AIT), and launch campaign phases Establish and maintain schedule baseline; control all baseline changes in accordance with Earned Value Management (EVM) requirement principles and guidelines and launch vehicle interface milestones into a single cohesive schedule Customer Interface Prepare and deliver schedule status reports, integrated program reviews (IPRs), and milestone briefings for customers Support Monthly Progress Reviews (MPRs) and Program Management Reviews (PMRs) with schedule data, variance analysis, and recovery plans Ensure schedule compliance with CDRL requirements and contract data deliverables Interface with government program offices and contracting officers on schedule matters as required Analysis & Risk Management Perform critical path analysis, schedule risk analysis (SRA), and float trending to proactively identify schedule risks Develop and track schedule recovery plans; support root cause analysis for schedule variances Support Integrated Baseline Reviews (IBRs) and schedule surveillance activities Assess and report sc
