Valencia, SpainSenior
Responsibilities
- Build backend domain services for task management, sensor planning, opportunity calculation, and asynchronous state synchronization.
- Develop stable, performant customer-facing APIs with observability and production troubleshooting capabilities.
- Design and operate geospatial databases that support large-scale geospatial queries and frequent data ingestion.
- Build tasking and planning engines covering orbit propagation, pass prediction, acquisition geometry, sensor configuration, and coverage footprints.
- Design resilient, performant, and evolvable systems while making trade-offs involving concurrency, transactions, consistency, availability, and data access patterns.
- Collaborate with product managers, operational stakeholders, customers, and cross-domain teams to turn ambiguous operational needs into engineering work.
- Use AI-enhanced engineering workflows across domain learning, problem analysis, solution design, implementation, troubleshooting, and communication.
Requirements
- Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience designing resilient, performant, evolvable systems.
- Production experience designing, building, and operating services used by real customers.
- Experience designing APIs that remain evolvable without breaking existing users.
- Ability to reason about concurrency, transactions, delivery guarantees, data models, and ingestion and access patterns.
- Ability to learn technical domains including orbital mechanics, RF physics, and geospatial data.
- Ability to work from ambiguity, make reasoned decisions, and adjust as new information emerges.
- Effective communication across technical and operational domains.
- Preferred experience with orbital mechanics, TLEs, SGP4 propagation, pass prediction, acquisition geometry, Skyfield, GMAT, or STK.
- Preferred geospatial engineering experience with GeoJSON, CZML, WGS84, map projections, coverage polygons, and ground footprints.
- Preferred experience in the space, defence, or intelligence sectors.
- Frontend experience with Next.js, React, TypeScript, CesiumJS, or deck.gl is a plus.
Benefits
- Permanent employment in Valencia with a hybrid workplace model.
- Continuous professional development and training opportunities.
- Health and wellbeing benefits that vary by location and will be confirmed during the recruitment process.
- Inclusive, collaborative workplace with support for recruitment-process adjustments when needed.
