About Skyloom
Skyloom, an IonQ company, is a telecommunications company founded with the mission to develop, deploy, and operate one of the fundamental pieces of tomorrow's space communication infrastructure to provide data transport services on a planetary scale. If you have a strong sense of purpose, focus, urgency, and willingness to compete, or if working on space lasers excites you, join our team to develop the future generation of space communication technology.
What Makes Skyloom Unique?
Skyloom is building the orbital infrastructure for the next renaissance in global connectivity. As Earth’s first space-based telecommunications company, we deliver fiberless, planetary-scale data transport that dramatically increases bandwidth, availability, and resiliency—while reducing latency and total cost of operations.
Our proprietary optical technology enables secure, ultra-high-capacity connections across our end-to-end, multi-orbit network or within your own infrastructure, unlocking a new standard for global communications.
The Role
To support Skyloom’s production of optical communication terminals, the Program Manager’s primary responsibilities will be to oversee all aspects of designated technical and production programs including budgeting, scheduling, resource management, and communications. You will work closely with multidisciplinary project teams across our organization to ensure timely completion of objectives and identify any potential obstacles. This position would report to the CTO – Santiago Tempone.
As a Program Manager, you will carry significant responsibility for coordinating other teammates’ efforts and the timely success or failure of specific projects.
Responsibilities
The approximate base salary range for this position is $123,792 - $152,000. The total compensation package includes base, bonus, equity, and a range of benefit options found on our career site.

Posted base salary figures are subject to change as new market data becomes available.
