About the role

A leading aerospace technology company based in California is seeking a Software Engineer specializing in Python for Space Operations. In this role, you will join a small, agile team focused on enhancing satellite fleet efficiency. Your responsibilities include building applications for analyzing satellite telemetry and monitoring ground station operations, as well as developing systems for automatic fault detection. The position supports a hybrid work model and offers a variety of employee benefits.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
