About this role

Synspective develops and operates its own small SAR satellites, the StriX series, and its Data Production Department handles satellite operation, image data production and delivery. This Engineer Leader works on the Data Processing System that turns mission data downlinked to ground stations into SAR images, and is expected to act as a technical leader who also coordinates teams and manages projects.

Duties are designing functions that receive and manage raw satellite data from ground stations (FTP and TCP streaming); preprocessing and splitting data with mixed raw images; improving the decryption pipeline; designing interfaces to the SAR image-generation software; implementing processing-mode branching and delivery control from customer orders; coordinating specifications with stakeholders; task management, review and technical direction for the team; and leading incident response.

Applicants need Linux application development (Go, C or C++, Rust or Python), data-processing or streaming pipeline experience, knowledge of TCP, UDP and FTP, a basic grasp of encryption, and Git, plus experience leading a small to mid-size team and coordinating requirements with stakeholders. SAR or satellite data experience and container orchestration are preferred.
