## Job description

## LEAD, FINANCIAL PLANNING & ANALYSIS

Logos Space is a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite system purpose-built to serve the connectivity needs of commercial enterprise and government users. We will fill an important gap in the market, providing resilient, high-performance satellite-based connectivity services to enterprise and government customers worldwide. Business customers have contracts with agreed-upon performance standards for their broadband, and Logos will build these capabilities into the system from the beginning. Speed and reliability are the foundation of the system. Logos is designed to extend cloud and data center network connectivity anywhere in the world to fixed, seaborne, and airborne terminals.

Logos is led by a team of highly experienced professionals with proven track records in the networking and satellite industries.

## POSITION SUMMARY & RESPONSIBILITIES

The Lead for Financial Planning & Analysis at Logos will report to the Vice President of Corporate Development and Operations and will be a key leader in our finance and business planning functions. This is a crucial role for a professional who will have technical ownership of our financial models, systems, and internal planning. The successful candidate will be responsible for translating complex technical milestones and heavy capital expenditures into dynamic, actionable strategies, ensuring our financial framework aligns with our long-term goals and operational needs.

While a Corporate Development counterpart handles external fundraising and investor relations, this role requires a hands-on approach and a deep focus on the internal mechanics of our numbers. The ideal candidate will be adept at building and maintaining robust financial models from scratch, keeping our financial metrics investment-ready, and ensuring leadership and the board have absolute clarity and data as we scale. You will be instrumental in developing our back-end financial engine, providing critical insights to the leadership team, and ensuring the overall financial health of the company.

## THE FULL RESPONSIBILITIES INCLUDE:

- Build, scale, and stress-test sophisticated, multi-year financial models and predictive scenario analyses from scratch.
- Lead the annual budgeting process and execute agile rolling forecasts that accurately capture fast-moving technical and operational shifts.
- Provide the financial engine for upcoming capital raises by keeping models, metrics, and data rooms in a permanent state of investment-grade diligence.
- Craft high-impact financial narratives, variance reports, and strategic decks that give the leadership team and board an unobstructed view of our trajectory.
- Partner directly with engineering and business operations teams to map out complex unit economics, project lifecycles, and capital investments.
- Implement and optimize modern ERP and FP&A software to automate tracking and build a streamlined internal reporting engine.

## BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

- 7+ years of experience in corporate finance, FP&A, or investment banking.
- Mastery-level financial modeling skills, with a proven ability to build complex models from the ground up.
- A hands-on mindset - thrives on the tactical execution of building and managing their own models.
- High proficiency with modern ERP ecosystems and cloud-based FP&A data tools.
- Exceptional ability to strip away spreadsheet noise and deliver crystal-clear financial insights to executive decision-makers.
- High professional flexibility - the agility to pivot strategic messaging as operational timelines shift, and a comfort with ambiguity.

## PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Experience in the aerospace, telecommunications, or technology sectors.
- Experience with Series A + funding rounds and preparing for subsequent fundraising.
- Experience with government contracting or related financial regulations.

## About Logos Space

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Logos Space is building a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation to deliver a secure, resilient, high-performance private network for government and enterprise customers.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Series A)
- **Headquarters**: Mountain View, California, USA (with additional office in Redwood City, CA)
- **Founded**: 2024
- **Founders**: Milo Medin (former Google VP of access services and NASA project manager)

## Core Business
- **Primary industries**: Satellite communications, aerospace & defense, telecommunications
- **Target customers**: Government agencies (defense, intelligence, civil) and large enterprises requiring secure, guaranteed connectivity – distinct from consumer-focused satellite broadband.
- **Mission / purpose**: Deliver a next-generation private network that is purpose-built for contested communications environments, offering security, resilience, and fiber-like performance where fiber doesn’t go.

## Products & Services
- **Logos LEO Constellation**: A planned network of up to 4,178 satellites operating in Q, V, Ka and E frequency bands (FCC licensed). Capabilities include symmetric multi-gigabit throughput, Layer 2 MPLS networking, end-to-end encryption, and electronic warfare (EW) resilience. Designed as a dual-use system (civilian and military) with hardened satellites and a mesh architecture to maintain service during disruption.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Total Funding**: USD $50 million (Series A led by US Innovative Technology Fund, announced June 2025). Total funding to date is $50M, with USIT as the sole investor.
- **Key Metric**: 22–38 employees (rapidly growing; headcount up 416% year-over-year); 59 active job postings as of mid-2026.
- **Notable Investors / Partners**: US Innovative Technology Fund (chaired by serial entrepreneur Thomas Tull). Key hires from SpaceX, NASA, Airbus, OneWeb, and Apollo Fusion.
- **Growth Signals**: FCC grant for satellite spectrum license (Feb 2026) authorizing up to 4,178 satellites; emerged from stealth in Oct 2024; aiming for first operational satellite in late 2027; aggressive hiring across engineering, RF, software, and business development.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Dual-use focus**: Purpose-built for government and enterprise, not consumer – enabling higher security, guaranteed service, and resilience requirements.
- **EW-resilient design**: Architecture minimizes signal disruption and resists jamming through high-elevation angles, tightly focused beams, and hardened satellites.
- **Unique spectrum portfolio**: FCC-approved use of Q, V, Ka and E bands – high-frequency bands that are less congested and offer higher bandwidth.
- **Fiber-like performance at scale**: Symmetric multi-Gbps throughput with Layer 2 MPLS and end-to-end encryption, filling a gap underserved by existing LEO providers.
- **Experienced leadership**: Founder Milo Medin (Google access services, NASA) and a deeply experienced technical team from top aerospace and satellite organizations.

## Strategic Focus
- Complete critical design decisions, select partners, and build prototypes.
- Scale engineering team from ~30 to 70+ employees through 2026.
- Deploy first operational satellite by late 2027 and begin constellation build-out.
- Continue engaging with U.S. regulators and potential government/enterprise customers.

## Why Work Here
- **Mission-driven**: Work on a “next-generation” communications infrastructure that addresses real national security and enterprise resilience needs.
- **Culture & values**: No silos, no politics; treat people with respect; debate, decide, commit; continuous learning; customer focus. Operating principles explicitly discourage unprofessional behavior.
- **Growth opportunity**: Start-up stage with significant funding, clear milestone, and aggressive hiring – opportunity to shape technology and team.
- **Work policy**: In-office (typically 5 days a week) at Mountain View or Redwood City, CA locations.
- **Teams**: Engineering, product, operations, and business development roles heavily represented; emphasis on space, RF, embedded software, and network engineering.
