A new space race has begun. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build innovative technology that solves the next generation of engineering, manufacturing, and operational challenges for space security and sustainability.
OUR MISSION
The peaceful use of space is essential for continued prosperity on Earth—from communications and finance to navigation and logistics. True Anomaly builds innovative technology at the intersection of spacecraft, software, and AI to enhance the capabilities of the U.S., its allies, and commercial partners. We safeguard global security by ensuring space access and sustainability for all.
OUR VALUES
- Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity
- What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results
- It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together
YOUR MISSION
Software is the central nervous system for True Anomaly’s engineering and product thesis. Software bridges the gap between military objectives, theoretical astrodynamics and the human and autonomous control of spacecraft and ground systems in time and space. True Anomaly is seeking a highly experienced C++ Software Engineer to contribute to the continuing evolution of our complex spacecraft modeling and simulation software. The C++ software engineer would be particularly responsible for developing core functions and APIs that enable the simulation of space vehicle propagation, electronic operation, maneuvering, state estimation, communication, and other crucial functions of a spacecraft.
You do not need to have experience building space ground systems or experience in aerospace. You’ll have ownership of challenging, greenfield problems and a chance to fundamentally impact the outcome of future conflict (and the future of the company), all while enjoying world-class benefits including platinum healthcare, flexible work hours/location, highly competitive compensation and a generous stock options package.
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design, implement, and test software for simulating the propagation and operation of space vehicles using modern C++ (C++17 / C++20).
- Maintain C and Python APIs that are used by other backend and frontend teams to expose complex calculations as part of the MOSAIC application.
- Conduct analyses of performance, quality, and adherence to standard using benchmarks, sanitizers, code formatters, and other capabilities provided by CMake, GCC, Clang, and other tools.
- Collaborate with other internal teams who leverage our simulation APIs to plan and execute missions, develop advanced algorithms for spacecraft operation, and perform tradespace analyses.
- Participate in code reviews, architectural discussions, and sprint planning sessions to maintain high standards of software quality and adherence to project timelines.
- Contribute to research and development initiatives aimed at advancing the state-of-the-art in autonomous space systems and their applications in military and civilian contexts.
QUALIFICATIONS
- Strong background in software engineering, ideally with 5-7 years of software development experience and exposure to physical simulations, robotics, mathematics, or scientific computing.
- Proficiency with the C++ programming language, up to and including the C++17 and C++20 specifications.
- Strong understanding of linear algebra, and proficiency with linear algebraic libraries such as Eigen.
- Proficiency with modern C++ memory management capabilities and an understanding of best practices.
- Proficiency with CMake, GCC or Clang, and other tools essential to building, compiling, and releasing modern C++ software.
- Experience writing software unit and integration tests using the Google Test framework.
- Experience with debugging and testing code in a production environment.
- Some experience with the Python programming language for scripting and prototyping applications.
- Some experience with Atlassian productivity tools for task planning and documentation purposes.
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE
- Experience with multithreaded implementation strategies and their realization using modern C++ features.
- Experience with data interchange formats, such as JSON, and data serialization mechanisms, such as Protocol Buffers.
- Experience with the deployment of C++ applications to embedded compute platforms.
- Some experience with real-time or faster-than-real-time simulation applications.
- Some experience with modern computer vision libraries, such as OpenCV.
- Some experience with asynchronous messaging libraries, such as ZeroMQ.
- Some experience with wrapping C/C++ libraries for use in a Python application.
INTERVIEW PROCESS NOTE
- After initial conversations with a Recruiter and the Hiring Manager, you’ll be sent a take home coding exercise to complete and return in 3 business days (or earlier, if you like). Candidates generally take from 1 to 3 hours to complete this exercise.
COMPENSATION
- Base Salary: $140,000-$190,000
- Equity + Benefits including Health, Dental, Vision, HRA/HSA options, PTO and paid holidays, 401K, Parental Leave

Frequently Asked Questions
- We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
- Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
- The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
- Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
- We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
- We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
- From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
- We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
- If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
- EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
