V
Varda builds hardware and software for manufacturing in microgravity—pharmaceutical crystallization, fiber optics, and other products impossible to make on Earth—paired with reentry capsules to bring them back. The tech stack is aerospace-native (C++, Rust, MATLAB, Siemens NX, ANSYS thermal modeling) with modern DevOps layered in (Kubernetes, Terraform, Grafana). The hiring shape is engineering-dominant (57 of 87 non-ops roles), with senior and principal engineers clustered around vehicle design, mission control, and payload integration—consistent with the active project list, which spans thermal analysis, trajectory optimization, and mission planning software.
