We're looking for a creative, self-motivated Graphic Design & Video Intern to help tell the Magma Space story.

About Us

At Magma Space, we're on a mission to deliver the most precise spacecraft pointing ever achieved. We are developing groundbreaking control actuators, including magnetically levitated reaction wheels and control moment gyroscopes that drastically reduce onboard vibrations while delivering unmatched momentum. But our vision goes beyond hardware. We're at the forefront of integrating AI-enhanced software for real-time environment monitoring with novel sensing capabilities. Our goal is to provide satellites with an unprecedented level of stability, agility, and accuracy, enhancing their capabilities like never before.

We're proud to be supported by NASA, the U.S. Space Force, and Intelligence organizations, who see Magma's technology as critical to the success of the next generation of space missions. With three tech demos scheduled to go to space in 2027, we're gearing up to take the space sector by storm.

Join us at Magma Space and help tell the story of the booming space economy!
