About the role
Quindar
Quindar builds modern, cloud-native satellite mission operations software with a simple mission: to operate satellites like servers. Our platform replaces fragmented, legacy ground systems with an integrated, automation-driven approach that brings modern software velocity to space operations.
We're a small, fast-moving team with deep aerospace and software roots, energized by big challenges and motivated by the impact we have on real missions in this next chapter of the Space Age. If you want to work with sharp, ambitious people who push boundaries, move quickly, and are excited to take space operations to the next level, Quindar is the place to do it.
What You’ll Be Doing 👨💻👩💻 🛰 🛰
You will be responsible for developing ground satellite operations software using Python and AWS services. Don't worry, you do not need to be an expert in satellites or understand space! Satellites are just flying servers you can connect to every 90 minutes but we connect to hundreds of them.
You will develop APIs, integrate with AWS services such as EC2, S3, RDS, Fargate, and EKS with a focus on scalability, security, cost, and performance of the software. Working closely with cross-functional teams to understand requirements, you will implement new features and troubleshoot issues. Your strong knowledge of AWS services and best practices will enable you to optimize resource utilization and automate processes, ultimately contributing to the efficient and reliable operations of thousands of satellites.
You will primarily be responsible for developing backend software capabilities, but the ideal candidate can contribute across backend software development, generative AI integrations, DevSecOps and CI/CD tooling, and software architecture design and maintenance.
Day to day, you will be a part of the engineering team of frontend and backend engineers working in an Agile Scrum environment.
