(Senior) Engineer, Embedded Software, meoSphere

PROGRAMME DESCRIPTION

meoSphere is SES’s next-generation Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellite constellation, designed to deliver secure connectivity services to government agencies, enterprises, and commercial customers. It will also provide high-speed broadband internet to eliminate global connectivity dead zones.

To accelerate development timelines, reduce costs, and ensure quality, SES is internalizing a critical segment of the satellite supply chain: the final integration of partner satellite platforms with SES’s software-defined payloads, all within a cutting-edge manufacturing and test facility.

ROLE DESCRIPTION SUMMARY

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Embedded Software Engineer to join our satellite payload team. You will be responsible for designing, implementing, and optimizing embedded software for advanced satellite payloads, with a strong emphasis on performance, reliability, and real-time constraints. The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced environments and is passionate about pushing the boundaries of space technology

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES / KEY RESULT AREAS

  • Develop and maintain embedded software for satellite payload systems using Rust and C++.
  • Collaborate with systems engineers, hardware designers, and mission teams to define software requirements and interfaces.
  • Optimize code for real-time performance, low power consumption, and fault tolerance.
  • Integrate software with hardware components and conduct hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing.
  • Participate in code reviews, unit testing, and continuous integration workflows.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve issues across the software-hardware boundary.
  • Contribute to documentation, including design specifications, test plans, and operational procedures.
  • Support mission-critical timelines and adapt to evolving project requirements.

COMPETENCIES, QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCE

Required Skills & Qualifications:

  • Proven experience (5+ years) in embedded software for satcom payloads, avionics, or equivalent safety‑critical domains
  • Proven experience in embedded software development for real-time systems.
  • Strong proficiency in Rust and C++, with a deep understanding of memory management, concurrency, and safety.
  • Familiarity with RTOS, bare-metal programming, and low-level hardware interfaces (SPI, I2C, UART, CAN).
  • Experience with cross-compilation, toolchains, and debugging tools (e.g., JTAG, GDB).
  • Knowledge of satellite systems, payload operations, or space-grade electronics is a strong plus.
  • Ability to work under pressure and meet tight deadlines without compromising quality.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
  • Strong communication and collaboration abilities.

Preferred Skills:

  • Experience with fault detection/recovery mechanisms.
  • Knowledge of signal processing, data compression, or telemetry protocols.
  • Experience with Git, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing frameworks.
  • Exposure to FPGA integration, hardware abstraction layers, or sensor fusion.

OTHER KEY REQUIREMENTS / COMMENTS

  • Eligibility for ESA/EU/NATO/National SECRET personnel security clearances. Candidates must be prepared to undergo a security clearance procedure, as this position may require holding such clearance, is considered an asset.
  • Willing to work at least 60% onsite from office
  • Able to travel nationally & internationally
