Head of Facilities, Non-Production Operations

True Anomaly•Long Beach, CA

4d•$145,000 - $210,000•Onsite

About The Position

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it. True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground. We are looking for an operations leader to take ownership of the everyday workplace operations at True Anomaly. From office management to culinary, janitorial to groundskeeping to beyond, you'll lead the teams and vendors that keep our workplaces running at a high standard. You own the full OPEX picture for our workplaces — managing to budget, forecasting with rigor, and always bringing cost-saving options to the table. You think in partnerships: working hand-in-hand with Real Estate to draw the line between Landlord scope and ours and with Development Planners to set long-term standards that drive operational efficiency downstream. You're a people leader at heart, a sharp cross-functional partner, and you'll flex to support services in our production areas when the mission calls for it. You take immense pride in your craft, and that pride shows up everywhere — in workplaces that run well, employees who feel taken care of, and an operations function that scales like a well-oiled machine.
