York Space Systems was founded to radically improve spacecraft affordability and reliability, transforming, and enabling next- generation space mission operations worldwide. Today, York is one of the most innovative aerospace companies, specializing in end-to-end customer solutions and the rapid production of spacecraft platforms. York’s complete Space Segment Solution includes spacecraft production, payload integration, system integration & test, launch services, ground segment services, and mission operations, enabling customers to leverage York’s existing technology solutions to get to orbit rapidly and responsively. We’re looking to expand our team across the board. York is seeking a Program Scheduler & Analyst to support satellite programs for U.S. government customers and help deliver spacecraft at commercial speed. This role is central to program execution, integrating work across engineering, production, supply chain, finance, and operations to maintain high performance schedules and keep complex missions on track. As a key partner to Program Managers, you’ll build and maintain program schedules, analyze performance metrics, coordinate cross-functional teams, and support rapid, data-driven decision-making. You’ll gain exposure to the full program lifecycle, from contract award through design, build, test, launch, and on-orbit operations, while developing the analytical and leadership skills essential for long-term growth within program management. This position is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys solving interconnected problems, and wants to contribute to mission-critical national security programs. This role provides strong exposure to the core tools, processes, and leadership functions of program management.
