We are looking for a candidate to join our small design team to develop, test, qualify and initialise manufacture of a deepspace flight and payload computational platform. You will be an instrumental member of a small team building out a full avionics stack product. The operation is new, based in Luxembourg as a spinoff of Deep Space Industries California and Bradford Space Netherlands. Our team in Luxembourg will be kept small 10 people and will focus on the single objective of building a reliable, performing, and massoptimised flight avionics system for upcoming deepspace smallsats and landers. You would take the responsibility for the development and qualification of an onboard computer subsystem for this stack. The operation will aim to blend the responsible, highquality engineering practices of traditional aerospace engineering while implementing the rapid iterative development methods and dynamic workplace culture of a NewSpace style startup.
