Nominal is building the software infrastructure that powers the world’s most advanced hardware systems — from spacecraft and autonomous vehicles to next-generation industrial machines. Our platform ingests high-rate telemetry, validates complex autonomy software in real time, and helps engineering teams iterate faster without sacrificing safety or precision. We’re a small, fast-moving team of engineers and operators who own problems end-to-end, work across disciplines, and thrive on solving challenges at the intersection of hardware and software. As a dual-use platform, we're serving top-tier commercial and defense customers.
We’re backed by top-tier investors — Sequoia, General Catalyst, Founders Fund, Lux Capital, and Lightspeed Ventures — who share our mission to accelerate innovation in mission-critical systems. Our team brings experience from SpaceX, Palantir, Anduril, Applied Intuition, and other leading companies, united by a common goal: enabling hardware engineers to push the boundaries of advanced technology with speed, safety, and precision.
Nominal is looking for an Office Manager to assist with our day-to-day office operations in our NYC office (Union Square). You’ll be instrumental in shaping the employee experience, managing the daily rhythm of our growing office, and ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. You’ll work closely with team members across all departments, becoming a trusted partner, problem solver, and culture champion for our NYC hub.
This is full-time, hourly, non-exempt role.
**Please note that this role requires the ability and interest to come into our office at least 5 days per week.
