About the role

Planet is standing up an in‑house harness production line for our satellite program. You will own the manufacturing side of the harness cell, collaborating with electrical, production techs, quality, and supply chain to move from first article to flight production. This role focuses on hands‑on hardware work, developing procedures, and scaling the process as we ramp production at our San Francisco headquarters.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
