What do we do?
ICEYE is building and operating its commercial constellation of small Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites with SAR data available to customers. Our satellites acquire images of Earth at any time – even when it’s cloudy or dark – providing commercial and government partners with unmatched persistent monitoring capabilities. Information derived from our SAR images helps customers make data-driven decisions to address time-critical challenges in various sectors, such as maritime, disaster management, insurance, and finance.
What are we looking for?
To support the company’s growth, we continue to scale our Satellite Communications Network team and are looking for a Software Engineer to join us in the Helsinki area, Finland. ICEYE Satellite Communications Network is responsible for creating high reliability and high throughput communication between the ground systems and the satellites in ICEYE fleet globally. Various teams are working on contact planning and configuration, TT&C chain, payload downlinking and ground station infrastructure around it.
About the role?
As a Senior Go Engineer, you will work for the Payload Downlink team. You are an experienced software engineer – especially with Go but also other languages – who creates, maintains and improves our payload downlinking system, which includes payload data receiving, decoding, decrypting service, data aggregation and monitoring around it. In addition to programming with Go, you will need fundamental skills with maintaining and developing the infrastructure around this service with tools such as Terraform and Helm, where you are assisted with the DevOps team.
You will be developing new features, as well as new software from scratch, to make modular and extensible systems, highly available and horizontally scalable. You will help design and implement all layers of it, and also provide APIs to internal stakeholders. Your target stack is for the most part Go services running on Kubernetes, and we do a lot of our own DevOps with infrastructure as code, be it Kubernetes manifests, Terraform infrastructure or directly interacting with cloud provider SDKs. We follow an agile process, aim at best practices, and are always willing to improve. You are accountable for your work and can show your results, with good quality monitoring metrics and actionable performance.
We are looking for a senior level software engineer, where you are required to be experienced on technical level and match the criteria. In addition, “senior” title requires an ability to take ownership and have accountability of certain software products which you will help design and implement, and help your co-workers with a positive and talented example.
