Our Mission
We hope to further emphasise the impactful legacy of Aerospace: decades of world-changing work pioneered by human innovation, embodied most notably by the talented individuals whose tireless work culminated in those historic events we all know.
Celestial search knows that critical missions require highly skilled technical experts, and we also understand that finding this talent can be difficult. This rapidly growing industry is now at the point where failing to find the correct skillsets could lead to important projects being halted or shelved. Much like in most major industries, digitally focused skillsets are now the highest in demand; and with demand comes increased competition. Therefore it’s important that companies within this sector ensure they utilise all they can to find the best talent and compete with other projects both inside and outside the industry. Those entrenched in the industry know that hiring in Space has been curtailed by the attractions of New Tech, a highly competitive playing field in which old methods simply don’t cut it anymore – that’s where we come in.
Software
The cornerstone of any Space company, whether it’s developing algorithms to transmit data or optimising code for cutting-edge computer hardware, Software Engineers are the most sought after position throughout the industry and they come in various forms.
Hardware
A vital component of any project; navigation, communication, and display systems are some of the many functions on a Spacecraft that require validation. We find the best Computer engineers that focus on these systems as their primary expertise.
Materials
The research, analysis and creation of the Spacecraft. Material engineers are focused on developing new use cases for materials and it’s up to the Structural Engineers to piece it altogether.
Systems
Even though the Spacecraft might be built, there’s still a lot that needs to be done for it to function properly, System Engineers are obsessed over the fine details while simultaneously focusing on the big picture.
Propulsion
Spacecrafts, landers, and satellites all require fuel to get to space and back. Propulsion engineers are obsessed with efficiency, ensuring that the lifespan of fuel is maximised.
Electrical
Electrical engineering is vital throughout the mission process whether it be the test lab, simulation system, ground centre control or on the spacecraft itself.
It’s not all tech! Space companies, like in many other industries, also rely heavily on a plethora of non-technical skills and expertise. Examples of these include Operations, Finance, Marketing, Sales and Product.
