Software Engineer to support the design and development of experimental payload hardware and innovative technology to be flown in space to the International Space Station (ISS) aboard a number of orbital launchers. In our presently small engineering team in Luxemburg versatility is needed in this challenging engineering environment.

• Developing / producing the flight operational software for Experimental Containers (ScienceShells) to be flown in the ScienceTaxi to the ISS and Orbital Launchers.
• Developing Test Software for the Experimental Containers.
• Preforming Software Testing / Verification of the functionality of the Experimental Containers at system level.
• Developing the embedded software for a number of other experimental payloads.
• Support the Management and Engineering Team on future proposals

• You have a degree or an equivalent degree in the one of the following: Software Engineering, Computer and Electronic Systems Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering.  
• You have at least 3+ years of industry or postdoc experience  
• You convince with your extraordinarily strong C++ and your solid Python programming skills.  
• You are skilled in testing and validating complex software systems.  
• Your experience in designing software architecture stands out.  
• You have basic Electronics knowledge.  
• You have knowledge about communication protocols.  
• You have experience in programming microcontrollers.

Nice to have:   

• Experience with CAN and CANopen.  
• Experience with ROS1/2.  
• Experience with hardware-in-the-loop testing.  
• Knowledge about control loops and kinematics.  
• Experience developing Raspberry Pi applications.

• Is there anything more exciting than the intersection of space and biotechnology?
• You'll work directly or indirectly on projects launched to the International Space Station and other platforms in space.
• We offer a flexible work environment with many opportunities to work remotely.
• You'll love our office at Technoport in the heart of the Belval campus. From the shared kitchen (with foosball, billiards and pinball) you have a direct view of Belval's blast furnaces.    
• We support you in finding your perfect setup and help you choose between Team Mac and Team Windows.
• We are very impact-driven at work and outside of work. That's why you can take at least one Impact Day a year to demonstrate for more climate protection or support another social or environmental cause.
• We care about our footprint, so we offset emissions from our rocket launches, business travel and all other activities.
• In addition, we offset the private emissions of all our team members

...and a final remark:
We care about each other and believe that a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be. That means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality, religion or your secret aversion to pineapple on pizza.
