Job description

Overview

Turning Space into a Transportation Layer for Earth

Who We Are : Eras of humanity can often be defined by a dominant transportation mode - horse drawn chariots, ocean going boats, or aircraft. We seek to usher in a new era defined by universal access to the whole globe, with a routine way from space to Earth, by building highly maneuverable re-entry vehicles that can loiter in orbit before precision landing back on Earth.

Responsibilities

  • Contribute to critical software components for a new vehicle from initial concept to deployment
  • Write and test software for spacecraft, including drivers, networking, fault management, and attitude control interfaces
  • Assist in creating and executing tests, including hardware-in-the-loop (HITL) and software-in-the-loop (SITL / HOOTL) testing, integration testing, and unit testing
  • Support a mission-driven team focused on pushing the limits of space exploration, recognizing that there may be extended hours or weekend work while maintaining an inspired, supportive, and challenging environment

Required Qualifications

  • 1-5 years of software development experience with a Bachelors degree or equivalent experience
  • Experience with a systems language such as Rust, C++, or C
  • Experience in a Linux development environment
  • Basic exposure to software development tools such as version control, code reviews, issue tracking, and CI / CD
  • An innovative and optimistic approach to work in a dynamic and uncertain environment
  • Position may require occasional extended work hours and / or weekend work
  • Office headquarters located in Playa Vista, CA; all jobs require onsite work unless stated otherwise
  • Desired Qualifications

  • Experience with safety-critical or fault-tolerant systems
  • Familiarity with Python or similar language for testing and tooling
  • Experience collaborating with GNC engineers and developing interfaces to sensor data (IMUs, GPS, star trackers, etc.)
  • Experience with networking (TCP / UDP / Ethernet)
  • Familiarity with the Linux kernel and interfacing with it (kernel modules, device trees, etc.); embedded Linux experience (Yocto, Buildroot, or similar) is a plus
  • Hands-on experience developing, testing, and / or operating spacecraft, flight hardware, HITL, flat-sats, and avionics systems
  • Prior experience in startups and small independent teams
  • The California annual base salary for this role is currently $107,000-$126,000. Pay grades are determined by role, level, location, and alignment with market data. Individual pay will be determined on a case-by-case basis and may vary based on interviews and an assessment of several factors that are unique to each candidate, job-related skills, relevant education and experience, certifications, and internal equity.
