About ICEYE:
ICEYE is a leading satellite technology company focused on providing reliable and timely satellite imagery data. Our mission is to enable global monitoring with access to near-real-time information for various applications, including environmental monitoring, disaster response, and infrastructure management.
Role Overview:
As a Staff Flight Software Engineer in the FSW Applications Team, you will play a pivotal role in ICEYE's satellite technology evolution. You will lead the design and development of the On-Board Computer (OBC) application layer software, transitioning to an event-driven architecture, collaborating with subsystem layer developers, and driving cross-team collaboration within ICEYE.
Primary Impact:
- Enable ICEYE's migration from legacy solutions to a flexible architecture, accelerating new feature development, maximizing fleet utilization, and reducing maintenance and operational costs.
- Transform the satellite into an observable and understandable product, considering CPU/memory/storage/redundancy/safety constraints.
- Drive the execution of the OBC application layer with hands-on technical leadership, mentorship, and cross-team collaboration.
Responsibilities:
- Design and define application architecture inside the satellite, transitioning to an event-driven architecture.
- Collaborate with subsystem layer developers to ensure consistency of APIs exposed by HW Subsystem Services.
- Design interface between Satellite and Fleet Control, choosing technologies balancing bandwidth, latency, and future-proofness.
- Mentor other team members, demonstrating technical leadership, and driving cross-team collaboration.
- Lead technology selections, assist in execution, and balance between generic and specific solutions.
Requirements
- Extensive experience in systems thinking/systems design, with the ability to see the big picture and propose balanced solutions.
- Strong communication skills, both verbal and written, to collaborate effectively and impact other ICEYE teams.
- Expertise in C++ and Python development, Object-Oriented Modeling, and familiarity with the latest features of these languages.
- Experience in developing applications in constrained environments such as IoT, robotics, or automotive.
- Proficiency in event-driven architectures, microservices architecture, asynchronous mechanisms, and concurrency.
- Hands-on experience with protocols, architecture styles, technologies (e.g., ZeroMQ, MQTT, REST, security protocols), and (embedded) Linux.
Benefits
- Work in a dynamic New Space environment with a scale-up approach.
- Your work will create a positive impact on sustainability, climate change and the future of this planet
- An independent role with a supportive and diverse work environment.
- Occupational healthcare, occupational and private insurance.
- A yearly benefit budget to spend as you wish, e.g., on sport, transport, wellness, lunch, etc.
- Relocation support, i.e., flight tickets, accommodation, relocation assistance.
- Time for self-development, research, training, conferences, or certification schemes, including access to a company-paid language course.
- Hybrid role: you get to decide your work hours and location.
