Description: Founded in 2001 on the belief that success begins with quality, Qwaltec is a certified Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) headquartered in Tempe, Arizona. We are a team of systems engineers, technical training consultants, program managers, and mission operations experts with deep experience supporting the DoD, NASA, United States Space Force, and commercial aerospace customers. From ground system operations and mission control to technical training and software engineering, Qwaltec brings space within reach, and we are growing. We strive for excellence and accountability, and we do everything we can to exceed expectations while acting with integrity and compassion. We invest in relationships, and we value openness, honesty, and fairness in all our endeavors. Qwaltec is seeking a Solutions Architect to lead the design and evolution of technical solutions for spacecraft Mission Operations Centers (MOCs), satellite ground systems, and antenna networks. This is a high-visibility role at the intersection of engineering, operations, and business growth: you will architect solutions for current and prospective customers, working closely with Qwaltec's customer-facing and business development teams to shape offerings, respond to solicitations, and win new mission work. The ideal candidate brings broad experience across the mission lifecycle, including experience as an operator on console, an engineer designing ground systems, a technical lead responsible for architecture integrity, and a contributor to capture and proposal efforts. You understand how MOCs, ground stations, and antenna networks come together to fly spacecraft across orbital regimes and program risk postures, from Class A missions to prototype R&D. Experience with USSF, NASA, and/or NOAA architectures is highly desirable. This position may be performed remotely within the United States; however, preference will be given to candidates based in or willing to relocate to Phoenix/Tempe, AZ area.
