Space, missile, and cyber operations software for defense missions
Auria Space builds mission-critical software for space, missile, and cyber operations — satellite ground systems, command-and-control platforms, and digital simulation environments. The stack spans C, C++, Python, and Java, grounded in mature defense tools (IDA Pro, Ghidra, STK, Remedy), with AWS and Azure cloud backends. Current hiring is engineering-heavy (55 of 66 roles) and weighted toward senior/principal levels, reflecting both technical depth required and active large-contract delivery (C2BMC, CNPS, WSTARS programs). The pain list — legacy re-platforming, integration complexity, low-latency tracking, technical debt — maps directly to their project focus on ground system modernization and real-time mission operations.
Notable leadership hires: Program Director, Chief Engineer
Auria Space designs and delivers software systems for U.S. defense and space operations. Their product portfolio spans satellite ground system integration and management, mission planning platforms, command-and-control microservices for space operations, and digital-twin simulation environments for space-based sensing. The company operates at scale on multi-year government contracts (C2BMC, CNPS, WSTARS programs) and is navigating infrastructure modernization — migrating legacy systems to AWS while managing complex multi-component satcom and spectrum integration. Headquartered in Colorado Springs with 501–1,000 employees and solely U.S.-based hiring, they serve national security and space operations customers.
Auria's stack includes C, C++, Python, Java, and JavaScript. They also use specialized defense tools like IDA Pro, Ghidra, and STK (Systems Tool Kit) for satellite simulation and analysis.
Major active projects include the C2BMC program, satellite ground system software integration, the CNPS (Common Network Planning Subsystem) contract, digital-twin simulation environments, and WSTARS (wideband satcom trend analysis and anomaly resolution subsystem).
