Space Systems Integration is a government contractor focused on spacecraft and air-domain systems design, acquisition, and operations. The company's tech stack—Oracle Primavera, SAP, SysML, DoDAF, and Sparx Enterprise Architect—reflects deep integration with defense acquisition workflows. Active hiring is concentrated in senior engineering roles (28 of 36 open positions), suggesting scaling on major program integrations rather than foundational expansion, while project names ("rg-xx constellation integration," "tranche 3 development") point to complex multi-phase government satellite programs.
Notable leadership hires: Program Acquisition Lead
Space Systems Integration provides engineering services to U.S. government customers in spacecraft and air-domain systems. The company supports the full acquisition lifecycle—from design and requirements verification through mission deployment and operations. Based in Chantilly, Virginia, SSI employs 51–200 people with a 20-year operational history. Core capabilities span spacecraft development, constellation integration, mission systems deployment, and strategic transition planning. The company is actively addressing challenges in space resilience, obsolescence management, and time-critical program delivery.
SSI's core tools include Oracle Primavera and Microsoft Project for program management, SAP for enterprise planning, Jira and Confluence for collaboration, and specialized defense/aerospace tools: SysML, DoDAF (Department of Defense Architecture Framework), and Sparx Enterprise Architect for systems modeling.
Active projects include major government program acquisitions, satellite constellation integration ("rg-xx"), mission systems transition to production, system-level requirements verification, and full acquisition lifecycle management across multiple development tranches.
