About us
Our mission is to pioneer a new era of space transportation by flying to space and back like an aircraft — taking off and landing at airports, and reusing our spaceplanes for hundreds of missions. We combine unprecedented cost efficiency with unique flexibility and safety, enabling breakthrough advances in both space transportation and hypersonic flight. This vision is currently pursued by almost 80 employees every day.
At POLARIS we value on-site collaboration, so we generally do not offer home office. Please apply only if you feel comfortable with this working model – it saves valuable time for everyone involved.
