Job Description K2 is building the largest and highest-power satellites ever flown, unlocking performance levels previously out of reach across every orbit. Backed by $450M from leading investors including Altimeter Capital, Redpoint Ventures, T. Rowe Price, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Alpine Space Ventures, and others – with an additional $500M in signed contracts across commercial and US government customers – we're mass-producing the highest-power satellite platforms ever built for missions from LEO to deep space. The rise of heavy-lift launch vehicles is shifting the industry from an era of mass constraint to one of mass abundance, and we believe this new era demands a fundamentally different class of spacecraft. Engineered to survive the harshest radiation environments and to fully capitalize on today's and tomorrow's massive rockets, K2 satellites deliver unmatched capability at constellation scale and across multiple orbits. With multiple launches planned through 2026 and 2027, we're Building Bigger to develop the solar system and become a Kardashev Type II (K2) civilization. If you are a motivated individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and you're excited about contributing to the success of a groundbreaking Series C space startup, we'd love for you to apply. The Role The processes that go into developing K2's solar arrays — from module interconnects and adhesive systems to cover glass coatings and substrate composites — directly determine how much power they produce, how long they last, and how fast we can build them. Getting the process engineering right is not a support function here; it is on the critical path.

Job DescriptionFurientis is building a new class of defensive interceptor missile for the United States and its allies. We design, build, and produce these systems end-to-end, from physics through manufacturing, at production rates legacy primes cannot match and at a fraction of the cost. We recruit engineers who internalize the warfighter's problems and bring deep mastery of the relevant technologies, without the institutional inertia that has slowed the legacy primes. Work done at Furientis has meaning. The GN&C Team writes the laws of motion for our weapon system, and owns the vehicle those laws apply to. We design the airframe, build the plant model the rest of the company tests against, and write the guidance, navigation, and autopilot software that takes a launched interceptor from rail to intercept. The airframe sets the kinematic ceiling, the plant model decides what is real, and the GN&C software lives or dies on the truth of both. We do not split these concerns across organizations. About the Role You will own the aerodynamic model and the vehicle outer mold line: body shape, control surfaces, static margin, and the pipeline that turns geometry into the coefficient tables plant and flight software consume. Hands-on, end-to-end: run and extend the empirical pipeline, calibrate against DATCOM and CFD, and plan wind-tunnel campaigns. For someone who has taken an airframe and its plant model from concept through wind tunnel and flight, ideally tactical, airborne, or missile-class. What You'll Do • Own the vehicle outer mold line and the design trades on planform, sweep, taper, and area ratios against autopilot authority, static margin, and packaging., • Own the aero pipeline end-to-end: the geometry-to-coefficient-table workflow that feeds plant and flight software. Decide when to extend empirical methods versus go to CFD or wind tunnel., • Extend the nonlinear body-lift implementation (Allen-Perkins) and control surface buildups (Barrowman, Polhamus, Pitts-Nielsen carryover, Hemsch-Nielsen). Know which method is honest in which Mach and α regime., • Stand up the CFD pipeline from zero: tool selection, meshing strategy, turbulence model defaults, transonic and supersonic best practices, and validation discipline., • Calibrate against DATCOM near-term and wind-tunnel data long-term. Close the gaps the current pipeline shows against external cross-checks., • Plan and run wind-tunnel campaigns: test matrix, model and sting design, blockage corrections, Reynolds scaling, and data reduction back into runtime tables., • Own the static-margin envelope across burn and across Mach. Trade CG travel, fin sizing, and body length against intercept performance., • Work the 6-DOF plant model end-to-end: rigid-body dynamics, atmosphere, wind, aero, propulsion, mass-properties evolution, and sensor and actuator models. Decide where to invest fidelity and where to stub., • Build and extend the Monte Carlo dispersion harness: coefficient uncertainties, geometry sweeps, noise-source ablations, and the analysis to defend miss-distance claims.Skills We're Hiring For, • B.S. in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Applied Math, Physics, or related. M.S. or Ph.D. preferred., • 7+ years of missile, munition, or high-speed airframe aerodynamics, with responsibility for one airframe from configuration through wind tunnel and flight., • Deep fluency with tactical-missile aero methods from first principles: slender-body, Allen-Perkins, Barrowman, Polhamus, Pitts-Nielsen, Hemsch-Nielsen. You can defend each at the whiteboard and know where it breaks., • Hands-on CFD across subsonic to supersonic. Meshing and solver fluency in at least one of Star-CCM+, OVERFLOW, Cart3D, SU2, or OpenFOAM., • Working fluency with Missile DATCOM and at least one engineering-level tool (AeroPredict, MISL3, RASAero, or equivalent). Reads, writes, and debugs input decks., • Built or owned a geometry-to-coefficient pipeline that feeds a real 6-DOF simulation, not a one-off study., • Wind-tunnel test experience: campaign planning, model and sting design, blockage corrections, Reynolds scaling, and data reduction back into a coefficient table., • Python (NumPy/SciPy) for pipeline scripting. Able to extend a coefficient-buildup codebase and stand up a Monte Carlo harness over aero parameters., • S&C derivative fluency: Cmα, Cmq, Cnβ, Cnr, Clp, control derivatives, hinge moments. Comfortable computing, measuring, and defending the difference., • Bias for low-cost airframes: track record of meeting kinematic and packaging requirements with a simpler shape or cheaper fabrication route than the legacy approach., • AI-native working style: daily use of agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, or similar) for pipeline scripting, CFD post-processing, and analysis.Bonus Points For, • Direct flight experience on a tactical missile, munition, or interceptor airframe., • High-α and post-stall aerodynamics: vortex burst, induced roll, pitch-yaw cross-coupling, and the CFD or wind-tunnel work to characterize them., • Transonic aerodynamics: aerodynamic-center migration, shock-induced separation, and the wind-tunnel discipline required to trust transonic numbers., • Hinge-moment prediction and actuator-load characterization across the full Mach and α envelope., • Aero-optic effects: vortex-induced LOS noise on a strapdown seeker dome, boundary-layer distortion, and mitigation strategies., • Production transition: moved an airframe from prototype to volume manufacturing, including DFM-driven OML refinements., • Direct missile, munition, or interceptor program experience (ESSM, AMRAAM, Meteor, RAM, SM-class, or equivalent)., • C++/C/Rust experience for pipeline tooling, geometry processing, or CFD pre/post. Forward-looking interest in moving parts of the aero stack to Rust. Equal Opportunity & Export Compliance Furientis is an equal-opportunity employer. To comply with U.S. export control laws, employment is contingent on eligibility to access export-controlled information. We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.

We recruit engineers who internalize the warfighter's problems and bring deep mastery of the relevant technologies, without the institutional inertia that has slowed the legacy primes. Work done at Furientis has meaning. About the Team The GNC team writes the guidance algorithms, navigation solution, and autopilot that take a launched interceptor from rail to intercept under realistic noise, disturbances, and adversary behavior. On a modern missile, GNC decides whether the rest of the system's investment converts into a hit. We treat the navigation solution as the load-bearing wall every guidance and control decision rests on. What You'll Do • Design, tune, and harden an error-state EKF for tight INS/GNSS coupling, with graceful degradation under GNSS denial, jamming, and spoofing., • Characterize inertial sensors: bias, scale factor, misalignment, g-sensitivity, random walks, Allan variance, and temperature behavior across the envelope., • Own the navigation error budget across sensor noise, calibration residuals, lever arms, time sync, vibration rectification, and high-g transients. Flow requirements down to suppliers and up to miss-distance., • Develop pre-launch alignment and in-flight alignment procedures (gyrocompass, transfer alignment, motion-based observability injection) suitable for tactical timelines., • Integrate aiding sensors as needed (GNSS, magnetometer, baro, vision, terrain-referenced, star tracker) and write the observability and fault-detection logic that decides when to trust them., • Build the full nav simulation stack: truth models, sensor error models, Earth and gravity models, Monte Carlo harness, and HWIL bench with real IMUs and GNSS receivers under motion., • Implement the navigation filter in flight-grade C/C++, with deterministic timing, fixed-step execution, and numerical conditioning suitable for a flight processor., • Plan and execute environmental qualification of the inertial assembly per MIL-STD-810 and program environments, with attention to vibration rectification and coning/sculling error., • Stand up the navigation HWIL from zero: rate table, three-axis motion simulator, GNSS RF simulator, and a bench that exercises the IMU filter against injected faults.Skills We're Hiring For, • B.S. in Aerospace, Electrical, Mechanical Engineering, Applied Math, Physics, or related. M.S. or Ph.D. preferred., • 7+ years of navigation or estimation work, with responsibility for one production navigation filter from architecture through flight test., • Designed and tuned an EKF (error-state or full-state) from first principles, not just consumed a vendor's nav solution. You can defend your state vector, process noise, measurement model, and observability at the whiteboard., • Deep fluency with strapdown inertial navigation: quaternion and DCM mechanizations, coning and sculling, Earth and gravity models (WGS-84, J2+), and frame conventions (ECEF, ECI, NED, body)., • Hands-on inertial sensor characterization: Allan variance, temperature calibration, g-sensitivity, scale factor and misalignment estimation, vibration rectification., • GNSS at receiver-output and signal-processing level: tight vs. loose coupling, RAIM, anti-jam and anti-spoof considerations, and realistic expectations under denial., • Flight-grade C/C++ (or Rust) for embedded targets. Comfortable with fixed-step real-time execution, numerical conditioning of covariance matrices, and the difference between a prototype and a flight build., • Python (NumPy/SciPy) for modeling and Monte Carlo. Able to stand up a harness with noise-source ablation and defend the results., • Bias for low-cost navigation: track record of meeting miss-distance requirements with MEMS IMUs where the legacy approach reached for a tactical-grade FOG or RLG. Filter sophistication can buy back sensor grade., • AI-native working style: daily use of agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Codex, or similar) for filter scaffolding, Monte Carlo analysis, and report generation.Bonus Points For, • Direct flight experience on a tactical missile, munition, or interceptor navigation system., • High-g navigation experience (sustained launch loads, gun-launched munitions, or hard-impact events)., • Transfer alignment from a moving host platform (air-launched or ship-launched)., • GNSS-denied navigation: vision-aided, terrain-referenced, celestial, signals-of-opportunity, or magnetic-anomaly., • Production transition: moved a nav solution from prototype to volume manufacturing, including factory calibration flow., • Technical vendor relationships across the inertial and GNSS supply chain (tactical-grade IMUs, MEMS arrays, GNSS receivers, antennas).

Anthropic’s mission is to create reliable, interpretable, and steerable AI systems. We want AI to be safe and beneficial for our users and for society as a whole. Our team is a quickly growing group of committed researchers, engineers, policy experts, and business leaders working together to build beneficial AI systems. In case you hadn’t noticed, Anthropic is growing fast. Really, really fast. The People Products team exists to support Anthropic’s mission by defining the blueprint for AI at work. We help hire the best person in the world for every job, ensure manager effectiveness, ramp new hires successfully, and ensure that we apply first principles thinking in how we shape Anthropic’s culture through the tools we build. We cover the entire employee lifecycle from hiring to onboarding, teamwork, and promotions. You’ll work directly with Claude, with access to capabilities no external team has, on problems that are genuinely unsolved. You’ll move fast — prototype to production in days or weeks. We believe in cross-functional thinkers who can reason across product, design, and engineering. You’ll be given high autonomy, own your decisions, and ship constantly. If you’ve experienced the pain of bad people practices and want to be the person who fixes them at the most consequential AI company in the world, this is that job. * Build full-stack end-to-end across the People Products portfolio. * Design and implement AI-native workflows: build tools, evals, prompts, and products. You’ll help define what is possible in applied AI for people processes. * Work directly with internal stakeholders — HR teams, recruiters, managers — to understand problems, gather feedback, and iterate quickly without waiting for requirements to be handed down. No gatekeeping, you are expected to talk to your customers. * Make product and architecture decisions independently in a low-structure environment: knowing when to cut scope, when to ship, and when to ask for input. * Contribute ideas for how the team works, what it builds, and where applied AI can have the most leverage in people workflows. * Derive joy from hard work and the act of creation. * Have shipped LLM-native features or applications. * Are experienced enough to build big features independently, and make great architectural decisions along the way. * Are self-sufficient end-to-end: you can go from idea to production without needing a designer, PM, or architect to unblock you. * Move fast without cutting corners: you hold a high quality bar and know how to make smart tradeoffs under time pressure. * Engage directly with users and criticism: you’re comfortable talking to internal customers, hearing hard feedback, and incorporating it quickly. * Are genuinely mission-driven: you care about the intersection of AI and people practices, not just the technical puzzle. * Are a collaborative, supportive teammate: you bring people along, communicate clearly about tradeoffs, and make the people around you better. * Familiarity with MCP (Model Context Protocol) or prior experience building Claude or LLM integrations in production. * Background at an AI-native company or in a product-focused 0->1 engineering environment. * Experience with HR tech platforms such as Greenhouse, Workday, or Rippling.

Annual Salary: $300,000 - $405,000 USD Education requirements: We require at least a Bachelor's degree in a related field or equivalent experience. Location-based hybrid policy: Currently, we expect all staff to be in one of our offices at least 25% of the time. However, some roles may require more time in our offices. Visa sponsorship: We do sponsor visas! However, we aren't able to successfully sponsor visas for every role and every candidate. But if we make you an offer, we will make every reasonable effort to get you a visa, and we retain an immigration lawyer to help with this. We encourage you to apply even if you do not believe you meet every single qualification. Not all strong candidates will meet every single qualification as listed. Research shows that people who identify as being from underrepresented groups are more prone to experiencing imposter syndrome and doubting the strength of their candidacy, so we urge you not to exclude yourself prematurely and to submit an application if you're interested in this work. We think AI systems like the ones we're building have enormous social and ethical implications. We think this makes representation even more important, and we strive to include a range of diverse perspectives on our team. Your safety matters to us. To protect yourself from potential scams, remember that Anthropic recruiters only contact you from @anthropic.com email addresses. In some cases, we may partner with vetted recruiting agencies who will identify themselves as working on behalf of Anthropic. Be cautious of emails from other domains. Legitimate Anthropic recruiters will never ask for money, fees, or banking information before your first day. If you're ever unsure about a communication, don't click any links—visit ___ directly for confirmed position openings. We believe that the highest-impact AI research will be big science. At Anthropic we work as a single cohesive team on just a few large-scale research efforts. And we value impact — advancing our long-term goals of steerable, trustworthy AI — rather than work on smaller and more specific puzzles. We view AI research as an empirical science, which has as much in common with physics and biology as with traditional efforts in computer science. We're an extremely collaborative group, and we host frequent research discussions to ensure that we are pursuing the highest-impact work at any given time. As such, we greatly value communication skills. The easiest way to understand our research directions is to read our recent research. This research continues many of the directions our team worked on prior to Anthropic, including: GPT-3, Circuit-Based Interpretability, Multimodal Neurons, Scaling Laws, AI & Compute, Concrete Problems in AI Safety, and Learning from Human Preferences. Anthropic is a public benefit corporation headquartered in San Francisco. We offer competitive compensation and benefits, optional equity donation matching, generous vacation and parental leave, flexible working hours, and a lovely office space in which to collaborate with colleagues.
