Build the software backbone of space missions

At SATLANTIS, we design advanced space and optical technologies with one mission: solving global challenges from above. Our satellites don't operate alone; they rely on robust, scalable ground-segment software to manage data, operations, and mission performance.

As a Ground Segment Software Engineer, you will develop and maintain the software systems that connect satellites with Earth, ensuring reliable data processing, deployment, and operational continuity.

What's in it for you

• Direct impact on space operations: Your code will support real satellite missions, enabling data flow and system reliability from ground to orbit.
• Modern software stack: Work with Python, C/C++, Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud environments in real production systems.
• End-to-end responsibility: Participate in the full lifecycle of ground-segment software, from development to deployment and operations.
• Flexible working hours: We trust you to organize your time and deliver impact with autonomy.
• Private health insurance: Comprehensive medical coverage to support your wellbeing.
• Collaborative technical environment: Join a software team that values clean code, reliability, and continuous improvement.

Your mission

Your mission will be to design, develop, and operate ground-segment software that ensures the reliability, scalability, and performance of SATLANTIS' space missions.

Your work will enable efficient data processing, system integration, and operational excellence across satellite programs.

You will:

• Develop and maintain ground-segment software using Python and C/C++.
• Work in Linux-based environments, ensuring stability and performance of deployed systems.
• Build and operate containerized applications using Docker and Kubernetes.
• Design and maintain data pipelines, including ETL processes and data handling workflows.
• Integrate and manage databases using SQL and/or NoSQL technologies.
• Develop and maintain automation scripts using Bash.
• Support cloud-based infrastructures, working with AWS or similar providers.

What will set you up for success

• A strong software engineering foundation: A degree in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field gives you the base to tackle complex systems confidently.
• Professional programming experience: Around 2-3 years working with Python and/or C/C++ allows you to contribute effectively from day one.
• Linux proficiency: Comfort working in Linux environments helps you operate and troubleshoot real production systems.
• Cloud and container mindset: Experience with Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms supports scalable and maintainable deployments.
• Data-oriented thinking: Familiarity with ETL processes and databases enables you to manage and process mission data efficiently.
• Ownership and reliability: You take responsibility for your code, enjoy solving operational challenges, and value robustness as much as functionality.
