About Foundational

Three things are for sale at Foundational: tracking data from its ground laser stations, delivered as a subscription through its Origin data platform, passive laser retroreflectors that operators mount on spacecraft so any station can range them, and government contract work, and the team that sells them is being built from nothing. All five sales-titled postings are marked as future roles, so the company is assembling a shortlist rather than making offers today. At the top is a head of sales or commercial director in London, reporting to the CEO, who owns the targets and forecast, sets pricing and packaging with the founders, closes the strategic accounts and recruits the rest. Below that seat the territory is split in two: an EMEA business development manager in London works defence customers, national security, prime contractors and space agencies through tenders and framework routes (eligibility for UK SC clearance is required), while a remote US counterpart chases constellation and new-space operators to a signed subscription. A technical sales engineer scopes tracking tiers and retroreflector choices, runs demos and answers RFPs, and a bids and grants manager writes the funding applications to ESA, the UK Space Agency, Innovate UK and the European Innovation Council; four of the five seats sit in London.
