Wanna Join the Adventure? Satellite & flight hardware production at Loft Orbital is scaling rapidly, and we are seeking a Buyer to join our team to take on a critical role in sourcing and procuring materials and equipment across Loft’s engineering teams. Your expertise in sourcing and procurement will play a vital role in ensuring that we have the materials, parts and equipment we need to meet our production & launch goals. We are looking for a highly organized and detail-oriented individual who can work well in a fast-paced, international, deadline-driven environment. Loft is in a period of dynamic growth & this person will initially be a swiss-army-knife, filling some operational gaps that we will eventually hire people for in the future. Research shows that while men apply to jobs where they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other marginalized people tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the qualifications. At Loft, we value respectful debate and people who aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions. We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don’t ‘check all the boxes.
