Role Highlights Title: Global Facilities Development Lead Department: Operations & Facilities Location: Espoo, Finland Type of contract: Permanent Hybrid (3 days per week at office) Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required) The Mission of the Global Facilities Development Lead Your mission is to build, equip, and open ICEYE's new global offices and facilities. In this role you'd be making sure that every new ICEYE facility, from a new office to a site expansion is set up flawlessly, on time, and within budget, enabling our teams to operate effectively from day one. You are the conductor for all non-manufacturing physical infrastructure, translating ICEYE's global vision and standards into functional, compliant, and inspiring local work environments. Who We Are ICEYE delivers space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to governments and allied nations. This includes sovereign and turnkey ISR missions leveraging ICEYE’s world-leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, as well as access to data from the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation. These capabilities enable partners to detect and respond to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy – day or night and in any weather, supported by ultra high-resolution imagery and high-frequency revisits. As a trusted partner for defense, intelligence, security, and maritime domain awareness, ICEYE’s near real-time data creates a tactical advantage for mission-critical operations. Designed for dual use, the platform also serves civil protection and commercial users for natural-catastrophe intelligence, insurance, maritime monitoring (including oil-spill detection), and finance, contributing to global security and community resilience. ICEYE operates internationally with offices in Finland, Poland, Spain, Japan, the UAE, Greece, and the US. The company has more than 900 employees, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation.
