90 employer sources, synced every morning. At defense primes and other mixed employers (Northrop Grumman, Boeing, RTX, KBR, Leidos, Leonardo, Anduril, Hadrian, Voyager Technologies) only space roles count, since the date shown beside each: a role is listed when its title names space work (a space discipline, program, customer or space business unit). That rule misses some space roles with generic titles; it never lists aircraft, missile or munitions work as space. At Voyager, roles at its space-unit sites (Pittsburgh, Mojave, Webster, Middleburg Heights, San Diego) also count. SpaceX's board also carries xAI and X roles since the merger (the Memphis AI data centers, AI compute, the X platform); those are not counted. Where an employer's rule changed, its hiring history restarts on the switch date rather than showing the removed roles as a drop. Talent communities, general applications and pipeline requisitions are not openings and are not listed. A listing is removed when it leaves the employer's board, and any listing its source has not confirmed for 7 days expires. The headline counts postings: one role posted at several sites, or under several requisitions, is several postings. “Distinct roles” counts each company's titles once, ignoring a trailing location or requisition tag.
| Employer | Roles counted | Open now |
|---|---|---|
| SpaceX | All roles except SpaceXAI and X roles (AI data centers, AI compute, the X platform), since 2026-10-05 | 2,841 |
| Blue Origin | All roles | 1,885 |
Listings mirror company careers pages and are synced daily; large employers often post the same role in several locations. Most listings link to the employer's own page to apply; a listing that takes applications on SpaceNexus says so on its page.
Every listing carries a salary band: the employer's range when posted, otherwise a SpaceNexus estimate.
Listings are pulled daily from employers' own applicant-tracking systems and link to the original posting. Salary estimates use U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics wages (OEWS, May 2025) for the closest of 51 benchmark roles: the middle half of national pay (25th to 75th percentile), adjusted for metro; they are guidance, not an offer.
