About Catalyx Space:
Catalyx Space is building large-scale re-entry systems for returning payloads from Low Earth Orbit. We design and develop large-scale hypersonic decelerators and re-entry vehicles that provide reliable, high-capacity down-mass from LEO.

Role:
As Engineering Program Manager at Catalyx Space, you will own the integrated schedule across avionics, structures, mechanisms, aerothermal, systems, and test, and run the weekly cadence that keeps forty engineers moving toward one vehicle on one date. You will be the source of truth on program status for leadership.

Responsibilities:
- Build and maintain the integrated master schedule across all subsystems, with a transparent critical path to every major milestone
- Map and track dependencies between teams (design freeze, procurement, build, integration, test), including long-lead items, vendor deliveries, and test facility bookings, and flag slips before they hit the schedule
- Run the weekly engineering review (progress against commitments, blockers, actions, escalations)



and maintain the program risk register with an owner and mitigation for each risk
- Manage change control across subsystems so design changes are reflected in schedule and risk
- Report milestone status and forecast dates, with assumptions, to leadership
- Set up and maintain lightweight program tracking tools that engineers actually use

Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in any engineering discipline
- 8–12 years in hardware engineering, with at least 5 years running an integrated program with multiple subsystem owners
- Background in spacecraft, launch vehicles, re-entry systems, UAVs, defense systems, automotive NPD, or similar complex electromechanical hardware
- Proven ability to build an integrated schedule from first principles, not just maintain an existing one
- Experience tracking long-lead procurement, vendor deliveries, and test campaigns against a hardware milestone
- Experience running structured engineering reviews, driving
