LeoLabs scores B on the Alion truth index (A is best, E worst), measured over 3 open roles re-checked against its own hiring board: 0% look like ghost listings, 100% have gone stale and 0% are the same role posted again. Its roles close in a median of 57 days. It measures how much of what this employer publishes turns into a real, finite search - not the employer as a workplace. How the index is computed
Overview
LeoLabs is a space situational awareness company headquartered in Menlo Park, California, and founded in 2016 as a spin-off from SRI International. The company operates a global network of phased array radars that track satellites and debris in low Earth orbit, publishing conjunction warnings and orbit determination data. It sells to satellite operators, insurers, and defense agencies that need independent tracking of objects and manoeuvres above the atmosphere.
