The ideal candidate is a self-motivated and versatile software engineer who is excited to build our cloud infrastructure, web services and applications like mission planning & control software, ground station integrations, and tools to gain insight into Earth’s complex systems. Our team broadly owns all the software that enables us to communicate with the satellite, as well as customer APIs that enable multi-satellite planning and scheduling.

Qualifications include a B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. in computer science or related field or equivalent experience, 4+ years experience as a software engineer in a team environment, strong programming experience in Python for web development, experience with cloud-native software development in at least one major cloud provider (AWS, GCP, Azure) using containers, excellent communication and presentation skills, and excitement to work in a fast-paced environment. Nice-to-have skills include experience with AWS / Govcloud ecosystem, managing CI/CD in cloud-based environments, passion for simple architectures and clean APIs, strong Linux fundamentals, IT and Information security knowledge, and experience deploying continuously evolving data services to customers.
