Build things that
run alone.
OrbitExSpace is a small engineering team building autonomous robotics and habitat technologies for the Moon and Mars. Our work starts on Earth — in the lab and in analogue terrain — and ends on a surface we may never visit ourselves. We hire people who want to own a hard problem end to end.

01
Own the whole problem
From concept to the field. You design it, build it, test it, and fix it when it breaks — not hand it off.
02
Hardware in the loop
We iterate with real vehicles in real terrain. Simulation informs; hardware decides.
03
Fewer, better, sooner
Small team, short loops. We ship the simplest thing that survives the environment and learn from it.
04
Earned, not claimed
No flight heritage we didn't build. No partnerships we didn't earn. We say only what is true.
We organize around disciplines, not layers. Each team owns a piece of the stack end to end and is accountable for it in the field.
Our process is short and direct: one application, a conversation with the team, a technical deep-dive, and a decision. No funnels, no take-home marathons.
We do not use an automated funnel. Send a direct, technical message — what you've built, what you want to build, and why. A team member will read it and respond. See our Applicant Privacy Notice for how we handle your information.
