Software Developer

Help Build the Future of Space Travel ?

 

We’re hiring an Embedded Software Engineer for an early-stage space startup developing automated space stations to refuel and repair spacecraft. Their technology will extend mission lifespans, increase payload capacity, and push the boundaries of deep-space exploration.

 

This is a rare opportunity to join a well-funded, fast-moving team working on cutting-edge space infrastructure. If you’re passionate about aerospace, thrive in high-intensity startup environments, and want to build something truly groundbreaking, this could be the perfect fit.

 

What You’ll Work On:

 

  • Develop payload computer software, interfacing with multiple subsystems.
  • Design the software architecture for space stations.
  • Write clean, efficient Python and C++ code for mission-critical systems.
  • Build real-time, high-reliability software for space applications.
  • Integrate software with avionics, sensors, and actuators.
  •  

Who This Role is For:

 

  • Strong coding skills in Python and C++
  • Recent graduates or engineers with 1-2 years of experience are encouraged to apply.
  • Must have worked on Embedded Software
  • A passion for spaceflight and high-reliability software.
  • A self-starter who thrives in a high-workload, high-impact startup—this is not a 9-to-5 job.
  • Must have space industry experience

 

What’s in it for You?:

 

  • Competitive salary ($90K-$140,000) + equity (0.1% – 1%)—get in early and be part of the upside.
  • Must be a U.S. citizen or green card holder (due to ITAR restrictions).
  • Location: Remote initially, then relocate to San Francisco
  • Start Date: Ideally within 2-3 weeks.
  • Work Culture: Fast-paced, ambitious, and mission-driven—this is a place for builders.
