Additional Information

Northwood is on a mission to transform connectivity between Earth and space. Satellites are only as powerful as the ground systems that connect to them - without that critical infrastructure, they can't be steered or send their data back to Earth. Northwood's global ground network ensures that missions ranging from national security, to global connectivity, to disaster response can unlock their full potential and operate every day without fail. We take a vertically integrated approach to building an end-to-end ground system, delivering technology that is scalable and reliable for both government and commercial customers. Backed by over $100M from investors like Andreessen Horowitz, Washington Harbour Partners, Alpine Space Ventures, Founders Fund, and others, Northwood has proven its ability to move fast - we've stood up a fully operational site in Australia in just 3 months, where similar efforts typically take years. Northwood is rapidly scaling its global footprint, with 30+ sites planned across 2026 and 2027. We're building and deploying infrastructure at a pace the industry hasn't seen before. If you thrive on building quickly, solving hard problems, and seeing your work deployed globally on critical missions, we want you at Northwood. OFFICE COORDINATOR: As an Office Coordinator at Northwood, you will help create a welcoming, organized, and highly functional workplace experience as our Torrance footprint continues to expand. You will own front door and guest management, support day-to-day office operations, and coordinate the details that keep our spaces running smoothly for employees, candidates, vendors, and visitors. In this role, you will partner closely with Facilities, People Operations, Recruiting, and internal teams to ensure the office is polished, prepared, and responsive to the needs of a fast-growing company. Your work will directly support Northwood's ability to scale by strengthening the employee and visitor experience while enabling the Facilities team to focus on broader infrastructure and space needs.
