How much do space jobs in the Waco area pay?

Too few of the roles here state their pay to give a median: 9.6% of Texas's postings state pay, which our research on where space jobs are compares state by state. Texas has no law requiring a pay range in job postings, so a posting there can leave pay out (each state's law beside its postings). For reference, the 7,560 aerospace engineers working in Texas, in any industry, earn a median $130k/yr (BLS, May 2025, as our research sets beside the open roles).

Of the 1,688 space postings in Texas whose text we read, 78.7% are limited to US citizens or US persons and 3.4% name a security clearance, by our research on who can apply, which compares every state. Each posting states its own rule, often citing export control under ITAR or the EAR.

How is this list made?

We read each employer's own job board every hour. A role is listed here when it is a US role and its own location line names a place in the Waco area (the Waco, TX metropolitan statistical area as the Census Bureau draws it: Bosque, Falls and McLennan counties), by the same reading as our research on where space jobs are; remote roles that name no state are on the remote jobs page.
