The U.S. Space Force is soliciting input to build a heavy-launch complex at Vandenberg Space Force Base, indicating an upcoming need for skilled aerospace engineers, project managers, and compliance experts to develop and operate new launch infrastructure. By expanding heavy lift capabilities (through a commercial leasing model), this initiative suggests growth in the commercial space workforce. Private launch providers will likely ramp up hiring for roles in design, construction, and operations of the new facility to meet the Space Force’s demand for larger launch vehicles.
