New ideas are all around us, but only a few will change the world. That's
our focus at JPL. We ask the biggest questions, then search the universe for
answers-literally. We build upon ideas that have guided generations, then
share our discoveries to inspire generations to come. Your mission-your
opportunity-is to seek out the answers that bring us one step closer. If
you're driven to discover, create, and inspire something that lasts a
lifetime and beyond, you're ready for JPL.

 

Located in Pasadena, California, JPL has a campus-like environment situated
on 177 acres in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains and offers a work
environment unlike any other: we inspire passion, foster innovation, build
collaboration, and reward excellence.
