About this role
Wanna join the adventure?
AI for Space is Loft’s newest business unit, focused on building the Loft Mission Store - an open platform where AI companies publish models, satellite operators deploy them in orbit, and the system delivers structured intelligence rather than raw imagery. The team is lean, the ambition is significant, and the satellites are already operational.
As Head of AI Engineering, you are the most senior technical leader within the AI for Space team, responsible for owning the technical strategy and execution of the AI Marketplace and Loft Labs ML tooling. You define what gets built and how, bridging the gap between research (Loft Labs) and production (implementation engineers), and setting the technical standard for every AI service deployed on the platform. Reporting to the General Manager, AI for Space, you work closely with Loft’s broader engineering, Solutions, and Architecture (CTO platform) teams to ensure seamless integration of AI services with Cockpit, Loft’s satellite operations platform, and the partner ecosystem. A key part of the role is establishing clear boundaries between marketplace and ML-specific capabilities owned by the AI team and those developed by existing platform teams.
