Northwood
61 open jobsGeneral information
Northwood builds a global ground network for space communications. Its systems enable spacecraft-to-Earth data transmission for satellites in orbit. Deployable antennas are engineered for rapid scaling of ground stations. Network orchestration software manages spacecraft communications. The company is based in El Segundo, United States.
Northwood Space started in 2023. It was co-founded by Bridgit Mendler and Griffin Cleverly, a married couple. In 2026 the company raised $100 million in Series B funding and won a $50 million contract with the US Space Force. That government contract matters: it shows the military trusts Northwood's ground stations for its own satellite data. Historically, the median salary is ~$133,200.1

Notes & sources
- 1. Company description. Written by InterviewOS from Northwood's public materials and press coverage; facts are checked against the sources below.
- 2. Weekly counts. A count is the number of listings the pipeline saw for the first time in that week. Weeks begin Monday; the onboarding week is excluded from the scale and every average.
- 3. Live counts. Deduplicated live listings observed daily on Northwood's own hiring system; last check October 28, 2026. Stale and syndicated posts on aggregator sites are not counted.
- 4. Posted pay. Ranges extracted from the text of Northwood's own listings; a range appears only when the employer printed one. Extraction is still rolling out, so this table can lag the board.
