Sidus Space (NASDAQ: SIDU) has appointed Jessica Curry as the firm’s Senior Vice President of Supply Chain — with more than 20 years of experience in the aerospace sector, Ms. Curry brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to her new role.
As the company scales up production of the AI-Driven, hybrid, 3D-printed LizzieSat satellites in order to build a high-margin, recurring revenue data offering, the significance of streamlined and reliable supply chain management cannot be overstated. With nine missions manifested with SpaceX in the next two years, and building our constellation of up to 100 LizzieSats on-orbit, effective supply chain management will become a key factor in the Company’s success.
Prior to joining Sidus Space, Ms. Curry served as the Senior Manager for Subcontracts and Procurement teams within Blue Origin’s Supply Chain organization. During her tenure, she oversaw the procurement of critical parts across all business units, managed agreements with government entities, and managed the team responsible for awarding subcontracts to support NASA’s Sustaining Lunar Development contract.
Ms. Curry’s career in the aerospace industry began as a NASA Civil Servant for the International Space Station (ISS) Program and Launch Services Program. Her passion for managing and negotiating contracts and barter agreements with government space agencies, U.S. Launch Service Providers, and commercial aerospace companies grew during this time. She further expanded her expertise by successfully negotiating contracts with Craig Technologies and Nanoracks for the deployment of satellites from the ISS.
“With our accelerated manufacturing plans, a strong and optimized supply chain is absolutely essential. We are thrilled to have Jessica join our team to lead our supply chain efforts. Her experience and proven track record in managing complex supply chains in the aerospace industry will be invaluable as we continue to expand our manufacturing capabilities and deliver innovative space technologies.” — Carol Craig, Founder and CEO, Sidus Space
