Working in the Ground Segment Team
Our team develops, operates, and maintains ground segment software critical for satellite operations. Our cloud-native Mission Operations Centre (MOC), is built with modern technologies like microservices, Kubernetes, Go, RabbitMQ, Postgres and Terraform. You'll be writing and shipping code from day one and have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the product, from functionality to quality and maintainability.
We follow an agile methodology in the team and encourage a DevOps mindset where engineers own their work from conception to testing and deployment. As a team we look for suggestions & contributions from all team members, and we’re not afraid to try new ways of working when we see an opportunity for improvement.
What will you be doing?
As a Senior Backend Software Engineer, you’ll design, build, test, deploy, and maintain new and existing backend services, while mentoring junior team members and promoting best practices. You’ll collaborate with satellite operators and stakeholders to shape the technical roadmap, architecture, and features.
Working closely with teams across the Ground Segment, you’ll help deliver a fully autonomous satellite operations platform. As our software scales, you’ll take on impactful challenges and drive improvements in reliability, development processes, and product features.
What you need to be successful
We’re more interested in what you can do than being dogmatic about your background! We’d love to take a look at your CV even if you’re not sure you tick all the boxes.
To succeed in this role, you’ll need:
* Strong programming knowledge in Golang + Python (or equivalent) with emphasis on good programming principles.
* Ability to design, implement and maintain microservices using Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, HTTP REST, gRPC and RabbitMQ.
* Hands-on knowledge establishing and promoting best practices for creating maintainable and reliable software within the team.
