We are a company rooted in ensuring mission success across flight operations, trajectory design and analysis, software tools for Space Domain Awareness, and ensuring on-orbit Spaceflight Safety. This internship position is fully remote with hybrid opportunities. This internship will allow new graduates a chance to enter the fast-growing industry of applied space domain engineering. Our analysts have extensive experience and access to space domain data, making this a unique opportunity to start a career in the space industry.\nThe engineering intern will develop the knowledge and expertise to solve various operational orbital mechanics problems and to process data for orbit states and predictions. A successful intern will learn and understand processes to coordinate and integrate relevant information and findings across multiple functional areas to develop and deliver space analysis products enabling customer situational awareness and decisions. Potential for broadening into other areas related to conjunction assessment, proximity operations and various technical tasks related to orbit analysis. This position has the potential to transition to a full-time in-person Junior Orbital Analyst position upon demonstrated knowledge and skill growth and positive security clearance adjudication. An ideal applicant should hold a Master’s degree in a relevant field or be on track to graduate from a commensurate program within 12 months of interview.\nInternship will consist of 4-6 hours per week of remote instruction. Interns will be submitted for a DoD security clearance and, once obtained, may transition to a hybrid on-site model to gain hands-on experience.\nUS citizenship required /EEO/AA/E-Verify Participation\nSkill Requirements:\nDemonstrated understanding of orbit determination to include tracking and predicting orbits using mathematical models and algorithms\nDesire to understand space surveillance sensors, networks, and observation data, including capabilities and limitations\nAbility and willingness to multi-task and be capable of applying innovative analysis in a dynamic work environment to solve customer problems\nWillingness to study and understand orbital or space science data and non-regular data message management\nAbility to learn how to apply orbital mechanics to real world problems\nAptitude on compiling statistics based on current space object population\nEducation and/or experience in code design\nWillingness to develop Python scripting skillset to develop code on analyzing space-based assets\nPreferred Qualifications\nFamiliarity with Linux-based OS, particularly Red Hat\nBeginner to intermediate proficiency in Python 2 and/or 3, Perl, and enabling efficient shell scripting and application development with modern languages\nFamiliarity with Python numerical and libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, SciPy\nRequired Experience:\nIndustry space experience is not required for this position. Education requirements in space-related programs which include preferred coursework are listed below.\nDegree Requirements:\nCandidate must have recently completed or be within six months of completing one or more of the following preferred degree programs: Aerospace Engineering, Physics/Astrophysics, or Aeronautics. As curriculum contents vary by institution, other related programs will also be considered.\nPreferred coursework includes Spacecraft Control, Spacecraft Attitude Dynamics, Experimental Dynamics & Control, Spacecraft Detailed Design, Spacecraft Preliminary Design, Space Mechanics, Spacecraft Systems, Astrophysics, Orbital Mechanics, Systems Engineering, Space Vehicle Dynamics, Space Vehicle Design, Control Systems, Rocket Propulsion, Space Environment, Astrodynamics, Numerical Methods, Statistics and Probability, Aerodynamics, Orbital Mechanics, Model Based Systems Engineering, Thermodynamics and Heat Transfer, Space Environment, Thermodynamics, Partial Differential Equations\nCompensation and Benefits:\nThis position is paid an hourly wage of $28/hour as a part-time employee for time participating in the internship. Once a favorable security clearance is adjudicated, candidates may be offered a full-time position as a Junior Orbital Analyst with a salary range of $90,000 to $130,000, depending on education level, relevant experience, and other factors.\nThis internship position is not eligible for company paid benefits.\nSecurity Clearance/Citizenship Requirements:\nCandidate must meet eligibility requirements and be willing to complete a background investigation and application for a TS/SCI clearance.\nCandidates who possess a current/active Security Clearance at the Secret or higher level are encouraged to apply for the Junior Orbital Analyst position here: https://omitron.applytojob.com/apply/0LawO6YyVX/Junior-Orbital-Analyst\nU.S. Citizenship required\nEmployment with Omitron is contingent upon meeting and maintaining eligibility requirements\nJob Location:\nRemote (Microsoft Teams) with willingness to potentially relocate for full-time on-site work at Vandenberg Space Force Base in California upon Security Clearance adjudication.","description_format":"text","description_chars":5216,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":true,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":[],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-14T15:24:50Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":5,"expected_fill_days":35,"reasons":["conf:4","velocity","win:early","comp:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-20T05:45:00Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/omitron-orbital-analyst-engineering-internship-omitron-inc-","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/omitron-orbital-analyst-engineering-internship-omitron-inc-.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-20T19:14:27Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":22160,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-21T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":4414696},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=4414696"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fomitron-orbital-analyst-engineering-internship-omitron-inc-"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fomitron-orbital-analyst-engineering-internship-omitron-inc-"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fomitron-orbital-analyst-engineering-internship-omitron-inc-"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/omitron-orbital-analyst-engineering-internship-omitron-inc-\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fomitron-orbital-analyst-engineering-internship-omitron-inc-"}]}
