Director, Industrial Design

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.

True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.

• Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity.

• What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.

• It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together.

Leaders like you are essential to this mission – to inspire, define, and build. This is some of the most meaningful work you’ll ever do, in an industry devoted to protecting the people you care about.

We’re looking for an inspirational creative leader to found our industrial product design function and build the team around it. With a well-established and growing software design team we’re now turning our attention to our critical hardware needs. You’ll sit alongside the engineers designing and building spacecraft and space-based interceptors, bringing your design aesthetics to the toughest hardware problems around, designed to operate flawlessly in the most challenging domain.

You’ll report directly to our Creative Director who’s building this function for people who care as much about the craft as the mission.

There’s no established playbook for how space security hardware should look. Most on-orbit hardware looks the way it does because function dictated every element. We believe building a product compelling design language can play a huge part in making our hardware express its function and perform better.

The programs that invest here gain a measurable advantage: in recruiting, in customer confidence, and in the engineering discipline that visible craft quietly enforces.

This is a founding seat. You’ll define what industrial design means here, set the standard, hire the team, and do it while the hardware is still early enough
