We are seeking a highly motivated Data Engineer to join our team responsible for orchestrating our satellite fleet and maintaining communications with the satellites. We operate at the core of ICEYEand its customers’ constellations. With our software, we plan what the individual satellite does at any given time. This includes communications activities with the ground. To deliver the SAR image to the end-user, all of this needs to work in concert. We have tens of literal moving parts in the system and observing the behaviour of the system is key to success. In this role you will be building the tools we need to collect, analyse and react to operational data in the system. This includes collecting and processing metrics, building analysis tools, conveying the outcomes to our suppliers and customers through APIs. You will also build and maintain pipelines to ingest the data to our data platform for further analysis. In time you will become a domain expert in the data we turn into insights.

Job Responsibility:

  • Building the tools we need to collect, analyse and react to operational data in the system
  • Collecting and processing metrics, building analysis tools, conveying the outcomes to our suppliers and customers through APIs
  • Building and maintaining pipelines to ingest the data to our data platform for further analysis
  • Becoming a domain expert in the data we turn into insights

Requirements:

  • B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Engineering or a similar field
  • Hands-on experience designing, implementing, and operating data analytics systems
  • Strong software engineering skills to implement business logic, build data-driven feedback loops, and deliver data reliably
  • Proficiency in Python and/or Go, which form our core technology stack
  • Experience working with AWS cloud environments and/or on-premise Kubernetes deployments
  • Experience with relational or NoSQL databases, particularly Postgres and/or MongoDB
  • Experience building or maintaining data pipelines, including ingestion, processing, transformation, and analysis workflows
  • Ability to build systems for collecting, processing, analyzing, and reacting to operational data.

Nice to have:

  • Experience with Fivetran or similar ETL/ELT tools
  • Experience with Databricks or similar data platforms
  • Background in observability systems, metrics pipelines, or operational monitoring tooling
  • Familiarity with satellite operations, fleet orchestration, or other complex physical-system data domains
What we offer:
  • Occupational healthcare, occupational and private insurance
  • Yearly benefit budget to spend on sport, transport, wellness, lunch, etc
  • Phone subscription with iPhone of choice
  • Relocation support (flight tickets, accommodation, relocation agency support)
  • Time and resources for self-development, research, training, conferences, and certification schemes
  • Inspiring office environment with collaborative spaces and silent workspaces
  • Access to state-of-the-art labs and testing facilities
  • Opportunities to attend international space conferences
