Scheduler & Scrum Master - Vehicle Design
The Exploration Company
Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run.
As we are working on the detailed design of our Nyx Earth version, which will dock to the space stations around the Earth, we are currently seeking a Scrum Master & Scheduler for Vehicle Design to support the execution of the Low Earth Orbit Missions.
We are looking for a proactive, detail-oriented, and collaborative Scheduler to support the Vehicle Design subsystem lead in managing the schedule, risks, and agile implementation across the team.
You will serve as the interface between the Vehicle Design technical team and the Program team, ensuring alignment of priorities, transparency of progress, and continuous improvement of planning methodologies.
You will report to the Vehicle Design subsystem lead and work closely with the Program Management Officer as well as the broader Program team.
Key responsibilities:
Build and maintain the detailed schedule for the Vehicle Design subsystem.
Track progress against milestones and identify potential delays or risks.
Facilitate scrum ceremonies and promote agile best practices.
Act as the primary scheduling interface between Vehicle Design and the Program team.
Provide regular updates on schedule status, risks, and mitigation plans.
Maintain comprehensive documentation of deliverables and progress.
What we would love to see from you:
Master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
3+ years of experience in project scheduling or project management in aerospace or complex engineering environments.
Proven experience working with spacecraft structures or vehicle design projects.
Strong technical understanding of spacecraft systems and development cycles.
Demonstrated experience with agile methodologies (Scrum, Kanban) in technical teams.
Proficiency in scheduling tools such as MS Project or Monday.
Excellent organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills.
Ability to identify and mitigate risks in a fast-paced development environment.
