Our story

Space is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. Thousands of satellites launch every year, and the market behind them is booming — with Poland right in the middle of it, home to a fast-rising space sector.

Liftero is at the heart of this trend. We build propulsion systems for the thousands of spacecraft coming to orbit, with the ambition to become the global leader in satellite propulsion — the transport layer of the space economy. Our goal is clear: deploy 1,000 propulsion systems in space.

Our core product is BOOSTER, a non-toxic chemical propulsion system built from first principles for the NewSpace era. It has already been validated in space.

We're a post-IPO startup, growing fast to serve the booming small-satellite market. Joining now means a front-row seat to space technology and real ownership over what we build.

As a propulsion company, this role is central to everything we do. At Liftero, you'll play a key role in shaping our core product - BOOSTER - from early design and requirements definition to final deployment in orbit.

In space hardware, every detail matters - a single mistake can risk the entire mission. That’s why we put a lot of focus on defining solid requirements, grounded in both industry standards and Liftero’s own experience and best practices. The final design is just the tip of the iceberg - it’s built on deep technical preparation and careful planning

It’s a demanding role that comes with significant responsibility - but also the opportunity to grow and make a real impact.

Working at Liftero is meaningful, fast-paced, and human. We respect your time and your life outside the office — we're not pretending work is your second home. If you're having a tough day, say it. If you're in flow state, we trust you to manage your own time.

The work is demanding, but that's where the growth is — and you'll see the direct impact of what you build. Because we're a startup that moves quickly, every team member has a real voice in what we ship, and a genuine stake in how the company grows.

We run our own project management framework, refined over years of iteration, designed to keep us moving fast while giving everyone real influence over the work.

At the end of the day, you can look up and say: 'the systems I work on are up there, in space.'

You'll love it here!
