Scout Space is building a new way to see and operate in space: with a new paradigm of data empowering every satellite to make space safer. We are a rapidly-growing team; we are deploying real solutions to orbit over the next 2 years; and our work will transform the face of spaceflight.

Operating at the intersection of technical execution and program leadership, the TPM manages schedules, mitigates risks, and aligns cross-functional teams around shared objectives, while defining and guiding functional requirements and roadmaps, monitoring and communicating progress, and measuring program performance. In addition, the TPM will support the Chief Product Officer and Director of Programs in establishing standardized processes and best practices across the program portfolio, while helping to scale and mentor the growing program management office.
