Reflect Orbital, Inc. is an American privately held space technology company headquartered in Hawthorne, California, founded in 2021. The company is developing a constellation of in-space mirrors designed to deliver reflected sunlight on demand to targeted areas on Earth's surface. Its two primary service lines cover lighting -- supporting applications such as disaster response, remote industrial operations, agriculture, and large-scale public events -- and energy, with the goal of extending effective solar generation hours for existing solar farms. The company has raised approximately $35.2 million in total funding, with notable investors including Sequoia Capital and Lux Capital, and is actively working toward its first space missions, with its initial satellite launch planned as early as Spring 2026. As of early 2026, Reflect Orbital has approximately 67 employees, though this figure may vary across sources as the team continues to grow. Given the nature of the company's work, the largest share of roles tends to fall within engineering and aerospace -- spanning satellite design, systems engineering, and mission operations -- while other departments such as software development, business development, operations, and communications also play important roles in day-to-day functions. This page lists the latest job openings at Reflect Orbital, and joining the company offers an opportunity to contribute to an emerging field at the intersection of space infrastructure, clean energy, and on-demand lighting technology.
