Team Lead – Connectivity Management
ViaSat
Delivers subscription-based satellite internet services
At Viasat, the work you do helps people stay connected in ways that matter, from everyday moments to critical missions across air, land, sea, and space.
We’re a place for people who are curious, bold, and motivated by meaningful work. Here, you'll have the opportunity to make an impact, explore new possibilities, and grow your career in ways that align with your interests and goals. When you're ready to take on something new, you'll find leaders who support your development and help you turn your ambition into action.
You will lead the Connectivity Management team within Viasat's Commercial Aviation platform, responsible for the software that gets passengers and crew devices onto the network aboard commercial aircraft. Your team owns the core onboard session management stack running on the Mobility Access Server. When a passenger mobile device connects mid-flight, your software is what makes it happen.
This is a multi-year architectural modernization, not a maintenance role – you'll help shape how a mission-critical, resource-constrained system evolves in production.
This is a site‑based role, employees work 3+ days (60%+) per week from a Viasat office or work location within a standard five‑day workweek.

Viasat provides high-speed satellite internet access for residential, business, and government customers, especially in areas where traditional broadband is limited. The service works by connecting customers to a global high-capacity satellite network through subscription-based plans (with different speeds and data allowances) and is supported by customer hardware such as modems and antennas. In addition to consumer internet, Viasat signs contracts with government and enterprise clients for specialized communication solutions. Compared with some competitors, Viasat relies on a broad satellite network to reach remote regions worldwide and serves a diverse mix of customers, including households, businesses, and government entities, sometimes offering savings on selected plans. The company’s goal is to provide reliable, high-speed internet connectivity across the globe, expanding access to underserved areas through its satellite technology and services.
