Space Jobs in New Jersey

Today, CACI (5 roles), L3Harris (3 roles), Skylo (1 role), Viasat (1 role). The table above lists every employer with a role open in New Jersey.

Most are in Florham Park (5), Clifton (2), Camden (1), as the postings name their sites. A role that names several sites counts at each.

The roles here that state pay post a median $146k/yr, with typical pay from $134k–$287k/yr; 100% of New Jersey's postings state their pay at all, which our research on where space jobs are compares state by state. New Jersey's law has required employers with 10 or more employees to state a pay range in job postings since 1 Jun 2025 (each state's law beside its postings). For reference, the 1,560 aerospace engineers working in New Jersey, in any industry, earn a median $126k/yr (BLS, May 2025, as our research sets beside the open roles).

Of the 5 space postings in New Jersey whose text we read, 40% are limited to US citizens or US persons and 20% 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.

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 New Jersey, by the same reading as our research on where space jobs are; remote roles that name no state are on the remote jobs page.
