The company was founded on the belief that humanity’s future in space will be defined by scale: tens of thousands of spacecraft operating across many orbits to unlock abundance for humanity. Inflection exists to make this scale real, by mass manufacturing spacecraft using the same supply chains and technologies already utilized by established, high-volume industries. If you are passionate about the industrialization of space, an expert in your field, and not afraid to get your hands dirty, Inflection may be the place for you.
