I’m looking for jobs in the space industry that I can get with a degree in math. Are there any? What are they? Thanks in advance :)

Pure math probably not much but if you are applied, you might
have a shot. Numerical methods, writing or improving complex simulation codes for structural, thermal or electromagnetic systems, optimizations and, of course, anything AI.

Most people these days would refer that question to an LLM.

You don't say whether you're still in school, or whether you've graduated. You also don't say what degree in math you have, or are planning to have.

Job markets can be fickle and can flip-flop within a year or two; so it depends on whether you're looking now, or planning for the future. For a current snapshot, check the standard job sites such as LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, .... Type in "Math Aerospace" or "Applied Math Aerospace". But look beyond the job titles posted (many will say "Software Engineer"), and read the detailed posts. They will tell you the required or preferred degrees and desired skills and experience.
