Job Summary

We are seeking a highly skilled Mission Operations System – Principal Full Stack Developer to support our efforts in building and testing the key technologies related to our space and ground payloads. If you have a passion for developing software for complex ground systems, and enjoy working in teams to build innovative solutions, we encourage you to apply.

As a key member of our software development team, you will contribute to the design, development, integration, and testing of our constellation's ground systems. You will play a critical role in the evolution of our cloud systems, supporting our growing satellite fleet with robust backend APIs and modern front-end applications.

Key Responsibilities

  • Gather requirements and help define APIs and data models for our growing suite of microservices.
  • Contribute to the design and documentation of the overall system architecture, ensuring scalability, reliability, security, and efficiency.
  • Implement backend services to support planning and operations of our constellation (telemetry, command, orbital predictions, scheduling, etc.).
  • Implement modern frontend applications for operations and internal applications (dashboards, data analysis, reporting, etc.).
  • Update, maintain backend services and front-end applications, and provide subject matter expertise to Mission Operations Center personnel.

What You Will Achieve in the First 12 Months

  • Enhance System Scalability: Improve the Mission Operations System to support a large fleet of satellites and ground stations concurrently, leveraging cloud-based technologies and distributed architectures to improve resource utilization and system availability.
  • Optimize Database Performance: Optimize databases to handle rapid scaling in data volume while improving response time, implementing performance-enhancing strategies and mechanisms necessary to support anticipated growth in satellite and ground station data.
  • Enhance Security Measures: Fortify the system against potential threats through best practices and security protocols, implementing a zero-trust architecture, advanced authentication, and encryption technologies for data in transit and at rest.
  • Implement Monitoring and Alerting System: Develop and integrate a comprehensive monitoring and alerting system that provides real-time insights into the health and performance of the system, with a system uptime of greater than 99.9%, using industry-standard tools and automated alerting mechanisms.
  • Team Development: Prepare supporting material and conduct regular knowledge-sharing sessions to familiarize the development team with the technologies and best practices used in developed systems, ensuring that the development and support teams can independently work with the new technologies and tools within a critical operations environment.

Qualifications

  • Demonstrated success in a leading role developing backend and frontend software for high-availability systems.
  • Knowledge of core frontend languages (e.g., JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3) and at least one framework (e.g., Angular, React, Vue).
  • Strong knowledge of at least 2 server-side languages (e.g., Java, Node, Python, Go, Rust).
  • Familiarity with Relational Database Management Systems (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL).
  • Experience with Docker and CI/CD pipelines, as well as frontend testing automation using tools such as Selenium, Cypress, or Playwright.
  • Understanding of caching mechanisms and technologies (e.g., Reddis, memcached).
  • Familiarity with best practices for microservices design/modeling (e.g., Swagger/OpenAPI, UML) and testing (unit testing and functional testing with tools such as Postman or Insomnia).
