Develop and harden our onboard Linux infrastructure: how services are deployed on the rootfs, what system manages their execution, and how we ensure reliable and recoverable Linux operation in orbit
Evolve our Runtime Container Environment — the container manager and the full stack around it (base images, container registry service) — enabling partner and customer workloads to run securely onboard our vehicles
Support scaling of the deployment pipeline as new hardware platforms are added and the number of active satellite programs grows
Contribute to Product Validation — as the last step in the development pipeline, the team plays a key role in validating software readiness before it goes to orbit
Design, implement, and refine software with a high degree of ownership, driving features from concept through delivery
- Participate in code reviews, design proposals, and the continuous improvement of development processes
- Must Haves:
- Strong understanding of containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes, or similar runtimes)
Deep Linux system knowledge: boot process, service management, filesystem layout, and failure recovery
Experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitLab-CI, Jenkins, or similar)
Proficiency with Git and collaborative development workflows
Experience with embedded or resource-constrained systems
Working Python Nice to Haves: Understanding of software deployment strategies for critical or hard-to-reach systems — OTA updates for cars, drones, or consumer hardware, or software updates on satellites — including concepts like golden images, A/B partitions, staged rollouts, and safe rollback
C++ knowledge
Experience with CUE (cuelang)
Familiarity with additional programming languages such as Go or Rust
Experience with embedded Linux: Yocto, device trees, systemd, and Linux on ARM platforms
Proficiency with unit test frameworks (e.g., pytest, Googletest, Unity)
- Experience with middleware frameworks (gRPC, ZMQ/NATS, etc.)
