Your space-enabled career begins here

GalaxEye Space, is a deep-tech Space start-up spun off from IIT-Madras and is currently based in Bengaluru, Karnataka. We are dedicated to advancing the frontiers of space exploration. Our mission is to develop cutting-edge solutions that address the challenges of the modern space industry by specialising in developing a constellation of miniaturised, multi-sensor SAR+EO satellites.

This role will contribute towards the development of Mission Design Software and Ground Segment Software that will be responsible for designing, analyzing, monitoring, controlling and coordinating activities of our satellite constellation.

Responsibilities:

1. Develop and maintain code/software for Constellation design optimization
   
2. Simulation study and analysis of the operation of the Satellite and its subsystems in space with the main focus on optimizing the utility of the GalaxEye’s satellites
   
3. Implement design specifications into modular, scalable and maintainable code
   
4. Take end-to-end ownership of the software development from design through implementation, testing and deployment
   
5. Collaborate with other satellite subsystems to understand effectively, collate and translate their design and specifications into a simulation that digitally mimics the satellite system.

Requirements

Skills/Requirements:

1. Mission design and orbit simulation experience using software tools (STK, FreeFlyer, Orekit, GMAT etc.) or custom software is preferred
   
2. Good communications skills, ability to work collaboratively in a team environment
   
3. Strong programming skills in at least one high level programming language (Python preferred)
   
4. Ability to understand, break down, and solve complex problems independently
   
5. Knowledgeable in numerical optimization theory and techniques.
   
6. Knowledge of the following Development tools is a plus
   
   1. Git and Version control (with Gitlab/Github)
      
   2. Slack
