Space Jobs in Wisconsin

Today, Sierra Space (12 roles), Amazon Leo (1 role). The table above lists every employer with a role open in Wisconsin.

Most are in Madison (6), Middleton (6), as the postings name their sites. A role that names several sites counts at each.

The roles here that state pay post a median $118k/yr, with typical pay from $86.4k–$208k/yr; 92.3% of Wisconsin's postings state their pay at all, which our research on where space jobs are compares state by state. Wisconsin 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 130 aerospace engineers working in Wisconsin, in any industry, earn a median $88.4k/yr (BLS, May 2025, as our research sets beside the open roles).

Many do: rocket, spacecraft and satellite work is often export-controlled under ITAR or the EAR, so most roles at US space employers are open only to US citizens or US persons, as each posting states. Our research on who can apply measures it employer by employer.

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