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 on the Space Coast (the Palm Bay-Melbourne-Titusville, FL metropolitan statistical area as the Census Bureau draws it: Brevard County), by the same reading as our research on where space jobs are, and its posting names a security clearance level (Secret, Top Secret or TS/SCI) by the same reading as every cleared space job; remote roles that name no state are on the remote jobs page.
