Job Description A New Paradigm For Space Operations. Who We Are: Space Kinetic is a dual use space technology startup building a completely new architecture for space operations – one that brings the advantages of proliferated drone technology (low-cost, operationally flexible, attainable, distributed) to space missions while reducing the ecosystem's reliance on consumable fuel. In a world where many companies are focused on incrementally improving the status quo, we are focused on creating something entirely different – an architecture underpinned by new first principles to meet the opportunities and challenges of the third space age head-on. Our goal is to move away from one-to-one space architectures – where each satellite in a constellation has one (or a small # of) primary payloads attached to the bus -- and unlock a 'one-to-many' system, where each satellite has a large number of payloads which can be deployed from their host spacecraft at high velocities without firing a thruster. This is not a role for someone looking for a traditional 40-hour work week. Space Kinetic is building ambitious, first-of-its-kind technology, and that requires urgency, ownership, and a high level of commitment to changing the foundational assumptions for everything we do in space. What You'll Do: As a Proposal Writer at Space Kinetic, you will play a critical role in securing the partnerships, contracts, and funding that power our mission. You will lead the development of high‑quality proposals for government agencies, commercial customers, and strategic partners: translating complex technical concepts into compelling, clear, and compliant narratives. This role sits at the intersection of strategy, engineering, and business development, offering a unique opportunity to shape how our technology is understood and adopted by the market. This is a full-time position that can either be worked onsite at the El Segundo office or remote. Responsibilities: • Lead end-to-end proposal development, from opportunity analysis and outline creation to final submission for government (e.g.,DoD, SBIR, NASA) and commercial customers., • Craft persuasive, technically accurate content that clearly communicates our mission, capabilities, solutions, and value proposition., • Collaborate closely with engineering, product, and strategy teams to translate technical inputs into polished narratives, graphics, and structured proposal components., • Ensure full compliance with RFP/RFI/BAA requirements, including format, structure, evaluation criteria, and submission protocols., • Manage proposal timelines and workflows, including content collection, technical reviews, color-team reviews, and final production., • Develop reusable proposal assets, including boilerplate text, past performance summaries, capability statements, and standard graphics. What It Takes: • Bachelor's degree in Writing, Engineering, Business, Communications, or a related field., • 3+ years of experience in proposal writing, technical writing, or government contracting—preferably in aerospace, defense, advanced manufacturing, or similar industries., • Strong understanding of government procurement processes, including FAR-based solicitations, SBIR/STTR programs, and OTA or commercial contracting pathways., • Ability to synthesize complex, highly technical information into clear, concise, and engaging content., • Exceptional writing, editing, organizational, and project management skills., • Experience with proposal tools and templates (e.g., color reviews, compliance matrices, proposal outlines)., • Comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment with evolving priorities., • Eligible to hold a US TS/SCI Clearance What We'd Love: • Previous work on Large-scale IDIQ, BAA, FOA, or SBIR Phase II/III proposals., • Understanding of classified program workflows, • Ability to obtain and maintain a TS/SCI clearance., • Experience creating visual storytelling assets, such as graphics, infographics, or data visualizations. Where You'll Be: • The position can be onsite in El Segundo, CA or worked remotely.
