About the Company
At constellr, we use thermal intelligence from space to understand what is happening on Earth - where, when and at scale. Our satellite constellation delivers high-resolution land surface temperature data, giving governments, defence organisations, commercial operators and global institutions the intelligence they need to monitor change, assess risk and make better-informed decisions.
From national security and critical infrastructure to agriculture and climate resilience, constellr turns temperature into actionable intelligence for a changing world.
Responsibilities
- Identify and source the right vendors for project-specific materials and components, and negotiate terms with them
- Take ownership of the full purchase order process for your assigned projects, from start to finish
- Build and maintain strong relationships with our suppliers, and track their performance over time
- Work closely with our project and engineering teams to coordinate delivery timelines
- Contribute to initiatives focused on reducing costs and consolidating our supplier base
Requirements
Required:
- Experience in procurement or supply chain, ideally in a project-based environment
- Experience in the space or aerospace sector
- Strong negotiation skills and a confident approach to managing vendor relationships

- Fluency in both German and English
Nice to Have:
- Experience procuring for electronics or precision manufacturing
- Familiarity with ERP or procurement systems
- Experience sourcing internationally or across borders
We Offer
- High-Impact National Security Mission: Be part of an ambitious mission to launch the world’s first commercial thermal infrared constellation, delivering sovereign-grade "behavioural" intelligence from space to close critical blind spots for defence, intelligence, and maritime surveillance agencies.
- Fast-Paced "New Space" Innovation: Work at the leading edge of a rapidly evolving defence sector. By leveraging modern, agile New Space methodologies, you will help design, build, and deploy dual-use thermal payloads into operational orbit at a speed and scale that traditional aerospace models simply cannot match.
- Broad Interdisciplinary Exposure: Accelerate your professional growth by collaborating daily with a diverse, international cohort of astrophysicists, software developers, and defence-system engineers.
- Inclusive & Scientific Culture: Join a high-trust team deeply committed to diversity, inclusion, and scientific excellence, where academic curiosity is paired with high autonomy and a flat hierarchy.
