  • Collaborate with senior engineers to develop, integrate, and test high-quality software.
  • Work alongside the team to deliver on-time, with clear communication and project updates.
  • Drive code reviews, ensuring high standards and sharing insights to elevate the team.
  • Develop innovative, next-generation software solutions for satellite communication, data collection, and flight management systems.
  • Own the quality and reliability of code you write.

  • Experience with CI/CD, automated testing, and microservices.
  • Working knowledge of device drivers, I2C, SPI, Ethernet, and USB protocols.
  • Experience with Board Support Packages and board bring-up.
