US Export Control Officer

US Export Control Officer Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run. We are looking for a US Export Control Officer to own the day-to-day execution of U.S. export controls at TEC US LLC. In this role, you will make clear, practical, and well-documented decisions on the handling of controlled hardware, software, and technical data, while helping teams move quickly without creating compliance risk. You will work at the intersection of engineering, digital tools, procurement, legal, and operations. You will lead U.S. export-control execution for TEC US LLC, partner closely with the other Export Control Officers on cross-jurisdiction matters, and build the discipline, records, and training needed to keep the company audit-ready as programs scale. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES: In this role, you will be responsible for the legally compliant and operationally effective execution of U.S. export controls across TEC US LLC. Day-to-day responsibilities will include: - Act as the U.S. export-control decision owner for controlled events, including first releases, new recipients or countries, access changes, travel access, external collaboration, scope changes, and incidents. - Review, validate, or escalate jurisdiction and classification outcomes with technical data owners before external release, expanded internal access, or new collaboration scope is approved. - Own U.S. licensing and authorization activity, including applicability analysis, preparation and filing support, conditions tracking, reporting obligations, and coordination with government authorities when needed. - Operate the export-control decision workflow in Zendesk with complete required fields, clear legal rationale, and a traceable record of assumptions, approvals, and restrictions. - Ensure approved collaboration paths are followed, with SharePoint as the default controlled repository and alternate transfer tools used only where explicitly approved and documented. - Enforce handling, marking, and access-control requirements across M365, SharePoint, Teams, DocSend, and related systems, and ensure SpaceVault classification and clearance labeling are completed where required. - Review and approve the access model for external personnel, suppliers, and other third parties involved in controlled-data collaboration. - Coordinate sanctions, restricted-party, end-use, and end-user escalations with Legal, Procurement, and other relevant functions when screening hits or red flags appear. - Maintain complete evidence chains for export-control decisions, including decision records, approvals, screening results, classifications, licenses or exceptions used, and access or activity logs. - Run periodic compliance monitoring, including monthly control reviews, reconciliation of approvals against actual access, and follow-up on incidents, exceptions, and corrective actions. - Develop, maintain, and improve export-control procedures, standard work, and training material so that requirements are understood and applied consistently across teams. - Deliver role-based training and practical guidance to engineering, IT, procurement, HR, quality, and operations stakeholders. - Monitor regulatory developments and policy changes affecting U.S. export-control obligations and translate them into actionable internal guidance. - Act as a company point of contact with U.S. authorities, customers, and external compliance stakeholders as required, and support management reporting and audit readiness. - Issue binding instructions for U.S. export-control scope and stop releases, access, or transfers when the legal basis, authorization, or evidence trail is insufficient.
