Remote Bitcoin Jobs

At Loft Orbital, we have just successfully launched our first two satellites that we fly and operate ourselves. We are now actively looking for software oriented spacecraft operations engineers to join and help us build the next missions and the apps to test and pilot our spacecraft! 🛰️🛰️🛰️ We are based in San Francisco (California), Golden (Colorado) and Toulouse (France), and will consider remote positions.

About Loft Orbital We build “shareable” satellites to make access to space much faster and easier. This means that we embark multiple customers on the same satellite, for example to take pictures, support IoT connectivity, act as blockchain nodes, etc… This service is powered by our hardware and software products that enable any payload to fly on a standard satellite, reducing the lead-time and risk of a traditional space mission. Our customers trust us to manage their space infrastructure, so they can focus on what matters most to them: operate their payload and collect their data.

What’s also special about Loft is that we don't have a dedicated satellite operations team. We believe to achieve the best, we need to eat our own dogfood. So you're on a team of Devs, teaching us all to fly the satellite, and getting to do some software dev yourself. We call this – brace yourself – SatDevOps” !!!

This position is about making SatDevOps work. We need someone with a spacecraft operations background and a software bent who can keep our operations organized - ensure that we have the right processes and procedures in place, keep on-call flowing, investigate particularly difficult spacecraft anomalies, help with product management of satellite operations related tasks, and contribute to light software development projects to keep ramping our automation. We're looking for an Ops jack of all trades who can keep the lights on and help us build into a more efficient and effective Ops organization as we scale.

Wanna join the adventure? Our ground software team has talented individual contributors both in Europe and in the US. We need talents that have experienced a project done at scale and master best practices. We are looking for engineers to bring fresh ideas and perspectives to the team so we can scale and grow further.

Some technical information about the position The stack we are using: Python, Django, GraphQL, Kubernetes, Cue, C++

There is a good chance you will love this job if this talks to you :

• Solving highly technical problems on satellites excites you • You value automation and hate repetitive tasks • You're passionate about developing and promoting best practices • You can appreciate quality technical documentation • Understand how to teach and evaluate others • Competent Python scripter • Enjoy working in Agile teams • Fluency in professional English • You are proactive in taking ownership of tasks and take them to completion

Bonus points if you have the following competencies : • Advanced Python skills • Docker/Kubernetes • Database interactions • Familiarity with event-based systems, message queues, pub/sub • Experience using cloud platforms
