Условия:

Important: This is not a fully-remote position - we would like you to work from the office at least twice a week. 17.000-21.000 PLN net/month + VAT (B2B) You would join a small team where people have room to influence how we work and are expected to help each other outside rigid job descriptions. We do not expect you to arrive knowing spacecraft engineering. We do expect you to be curious about it.
