ICEYE; Comunidad Valenciana; Híbrido; EUR 60.000 - 90.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

ICEYE in Valencia, Spain seeks a Senior Software Engineer for the Acquisition Planning team. You will build software to task satellites, plan data acquisitions, and convert orbit mechanics into actionable intelligence—end-to-end across the stack.

You will collaborate with engineers and product managers, define architecture, and shape a platform at the crossroads of software, applied math, and real-world intelligence. This is a high-autonomy, architecture-defining role.

Formación

• Strong software fundamentals enabling decoupled, resilient systems.
• Fluency with AI-assisted engineering and responsible usage.
• Experience operating services in production (REST APIs, DBs, async workers).
• Ability to learn new domains quickly (orbital mechanics, RF physics, geospatial data).
• Comfort turning ambiguous needs into concrete engineering tasks.
• Clear communication across diverse teams.

Responsabilidades

• Tasking and Planning Engines: orbit propagation, pass prediction, acquisition geometry, sensor configuration, coverage computation.
