People Analytics Toolbox · Niche Benchmark · Space & Commercial Aerospace
A compensation benchmark built for space & commercial aerospace.
Propulsion, GNC, and spacecraft-systems roles in the New Space economy. The broad surveys flatten or miss these roles — we build the benchmark with a of peers, cheaply.
Why your niche isn’t in the surveys
Priced off the wrong band.
Commercial space moved faster than the survey vendors. Propulsion, Guidance-Navigation-Control, and spacecraft-systems engineers at venture-backed launch and satellite companies have no credible, current benchmark — broad aerospace cuts reflect legacy primes, not New Space pay.
Roles in this consortium
The we already benchmark.
- ›Propulsion Engineer
- ›GNC (Guidance, Navigation & Control) Engineer
- ›Spacecraft Systems Engineer
- ›Avionics Engineer (Space)
- ›Flight Software Engineer
Each Focus overlays a function we already canon, so even a brand-new role anchors on a defensible base and applies the role’s differential. Sparse Focuses roll up to the function benchmark — nothing is left unpriced.
What you get
The cuts, anonymized.
Pay percentiles by role and level for space & commercial aerospace, built from the cohort and refreshed each cycle. Every cut is and released only with at least two contributors — you see the benchmark, never another company’s data.
