Software Engineer Intern

• As a Software Engineer Intern, you’ll build and extend the systems that ingest, store, and query the massive streams of telemetry flowing from our satellite fleet in real time. From designing data pipelines that handle thousands of channels per spacecraft to building monitoring rules that catch anomalies before they become problems, your work will give mission operators the visibility they need to keep satellites healthy and online.

• You’ll be working at the intersection of data engineering and space operations, building tools that turn raw satellite signals into actionable insight.

• This role will contribute to both our commercial and US government programs.

• Design and build monitoring rules and anomaly detection capabilities for our telemetry data platform.

• Contribute across the data platform by building out client libraries, data pipelines, query interfaces, and APIs.
