At Stoke, we believe a thriving space economy will enable a vibrant, sustainable, and equitable future here on Earth. That is why we’re building Nova, our fully and rapidly reusable launch vehicle. Designed for daily flight, Nova tackles the core challenges of space transportation by reducing cost, increasing availability, and improving reliability. By radically lowering launch costs and increasing flight cadence, we’re helping create a truly scalable space industry.
Our team is mission-driven, collaborative, and empowered to take ownership of their work. If you want to work alongside some of the most dedicated and talented people on Earth, we’d love to have you join us.
Description
Reusable launch systems are the key to seamlessly connecting Earth and space. Reliable, drama-free IT operations are foundational to these efforts. We are a small and motivated team, and as an IT Operations Engineer on Stoke Space’s Information Technology team, you’ll play a key role in supporting our Launch Complex and Launch Control Center at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. This is a hands-on generalist role responsible for supporting the full range of technology needs for personnel operating in these critical environments.
You will support everything from computers, printers, phones, applications, peripherals, and user access issues to complex troubleshooting of workstations, conference rooms, network connectivity, operational systems, and technical infrastructure. You’ll work directly with engineers, operators, technicians, and business teams in a fast-moving startup environment as we accelerate toward the first launch of Nova.
You must be ready to stay focused, move fast, self-direct, and learn on the fly.
