Head of Construction, Facilities

Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.

OUR MISSION

True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.

OUR VALUES

• Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity.
• What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.
• It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together.

YOUR MISSION

We are looking for a regional head of construction to own how True Anomaly turns plans — and the brand — into physical reality across assigned regions, spanning both our production environments (manufacturing lines, cleanrooms, test facilities, and the specialized spaces) and our workplace environments (offices, common areas, and the spaces where our people work every day) — and to keep those environments running from a maintenance perspective. Regions and the number of sites a lead owns will continue to evolve as the company scales; you'll be accountable for construction and facilities maintenance across every site in your region(s), setting the standards, processes, and bar for quality and uptime, while developing and scaling the team to meet future demand when appropriate.

This is a hands-on leadership role: until the team is staffed to match the project pipeline, you'll roll up your sleeves and carry projects directly, in collaboration with our Development Planner(s). You're equally credible directing a contractor on a job site, third-party PM, coaching an individual contributor, and sitting across from engineering, manufacturing, and cross-functional leaders to align both production infrastructure and workplace buildouts with manufacturing scale-up and the broader mission and brand.

Because keeping production facilities operational is the priority for maintaining throughput, you own maintenance as a first-class responsibility, not an afterthought. You measure your success by two things: a high-performing regional team and a construction and maintenance function — across both production and workplace — that runs like a well-oiled machine.
