What You’ll Be Doing 👨‍💻👩‍💻 🛰 🛰
You will be responsible for developing and integrating a software framework with various models and algorithms using Python and C++ or Rust. You will work closely between software and aerospace engineers to implement a robust framework capable of supporting complex algorithms that must execute in production environments. You do not need to be an expert in satellites, but experience working with physics-based concepts is highly valuable!Â
You will work in a small agile software development team and collaborate with cross-functional stakeholders such as satellite operators and other software engineers to understand requirements, implement new features, and troubleshoot issues. Your strong knowledge of optimization methods, modeling and simulation, and software best practices will allow you to build solutions capable of scaling to hundreds and thousands of satellites!Â
