Remote Weather Analyst Jobs in California (NOW HIRING)

Stellar Solutions, a nationally recognized “Great Place To Work,” delivers engineering solutions across commercial space and national security missions—from innovative new entrants to established space systems organizations.

We bring talented, energetic, and immediately productive professionals to meet critical customer needs in systems engineering and integration, mission operations, program management, and strategic planning—helping teams deliver resilient capability to the mission with speed, quality, and focus.

Stellar Solutions is seeking a TacSRT Mission Support Analyst to support Space-Based Environmental Monitoring and Tactical Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Tracking (TacSRT) activities within the broader Space-Based Sensing and Targeting mission area.

This early-career role will support the use of commercial space-based sensing, remote sensing data, geospatial information, and analytic products to address operational mission needs. Working alongside Government personnel, systems engineers, mission experts, ground systems engineers, and commercial partners, the Mission Support Analyst will help translate operational questions into actionable data and analytic requirements, coordinate and track mission requests, assess delivered products, and capture user feedback and lessons learned.

The ideal candidate brings 2+ years of experience in space operations, GEOINT, remote sensing, geospatial analysis, environmental monitoring, intelligence/ISR, military operations, or a related technical or mission-support environment. This role does not require deep sensor engineering expertise but does require an ability to understand operational needs, work with geospatial or remote-sensing information, and communicate effectively across technical and mission communities.

• Support Tactical Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Tracking activities associated with commercial space sensing, remote sensing, and environmental monitoring missions.

• Assist in translating operational questions and user needs into clear, traceable data, sensing, and analytic requirements.

• Support the intake, documentation, prioritization, coordination, and tracking of mission requests from Government and operational stakeholders.

• Assist senior team members in evaluating available commercial sensing, imagery, environmental, and geospatial data sources against specific mission needs.

• Support coordination with commercial data and analytics providers, Government organizations, and mission partners throughout the request-to-delivery process.

• Review delivered Operational Planning Products, imagery, geospatial products, or commercial analytics for completeness, timeliness, traceability, and alignment with the original mission request.

• Support the use and assessment of commercial remote-sensing capabilities such as electro-optical/infrared imagery, synthetic aperture radar, weather and environmental data, and other geospatial information sources.

• Assist with geospatial visualization, data review, mapping, overlays, or basic analysis using GIS or related mission tools.

• Support integration of commercial environmental-monitoring data and analytic products into Government ground, mission-processing, and operational workflows.

• Maintain mission status, requirements, product-delivery, performance, and feedback documentation.

• Collect user feedback and lessons learned to support refinement of mission requirements, commercial-provider performance, workflows, and future tasking.

• Support demonstrations, exercises, mission rehearsals, testing, and operational assessments involving commercial sensing or environmental-monitoring capabilities.

• Develop briefings, status reports, mission summaries, process documentation, and other materials for Government and program stakeholders.

• Work collaboratively with senior systems engineering, architecture, ground systems, acquisition, mission-integration, and operational personnel to help connect commercial sensing capabilities with warfighter needs.

• Bachelor's degree in Geography, Geospatial Science, Remote Sensing, Environmental Science, Meteorology, Intelligence Studies, Space Operations, Systems Engineering, Data Analytics, Engineering, or a related field.

• 2+ years of relevant professional, military, internship, or Government-support experience involving space, remote sensing, GEOINT, ISR, environmental monitoring, geospatial analysis, military operations, or related mission-support activities.

• Demonstrated ability to understand user or mission needs and translate them into organized requirements, tasks, or analytical questions.

• Familiarity with geospatial data, imagery, remote sensing, GIS, or space-based sensing concepts.

• Ability to analyze and organize technical and operational information and communicate findings clearly in written and briefing formats.

• Strong attention to detail and ability to manage multiple time-sensitive tasks in a dynamic mission environment.

• Ability to collaborate effectively across Government, engineering, operational, and commercial teams.

• U.S. citizenship and ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Government security clearance as required by the customer.

• Experience supporting the U.S. Space Force, Space Systems Command, Combatant Commands, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, Intelligence Community, or other Department of Defense organizations.

• Familiarity with Tactical Surveillance, Reconnaissance and Tracking (TacSRT), commercial GEOINT, commercial remote sensing, or space-based environmental monitoring.

• Experience with GIS or geospatial visualization tools such as ArcGIS, QGIS, or comparable platforms.

• Exposure to commercial satellite imagery, EO/IR, SAR, weather, environmental, maritime, disaster-response, or other remote-sensing data.

• Familiarity with military ISR, collection-management, operations-planning, or mission-request workflows.

• Experience evaluating data or analytic products against defined user requirements.

• Familiarity with commercial data marketplaces, data-as-a-service models, or Government acquisition of commercial sensing and analytic products.

• Experience supporting exercises, demonstrations, operational assessments, or rapid capability-development efforts.

• Understanding of data-sharing, releasability, metadata, data provenance, or mission-data dissemination concepts.

Clearance & Additional Requirements

• U.S. citizenship is required.
• Active TS clearance is required with SCI eligibility.
• Ability to access U.S.-only data systems and support classified government mission environments is required.
• Ability to travel to temporary work locations up to 10%, as needed

Location
