ICEYE is the world leader in sovereign intelligence from space. We deliver persistent monitoring capabilities to detect and respond to changes in any location on Earth.

ICEYE owns the world's largest and most advanced SAR (synthetic aperture radar) satellite constellation. To our customers we provide intelligence with unmatched quality, latency and revisit times, in any weather, day or night. To governments who choose to operate their own constellation we provide this proven capability as a sovereign system.

ICEYE-built constellations serve customers in defence and intelligence, environmental monitoring, insurance and emergency management. We enable fast decisions that contribute to a safer future.

• Troubleshoot deployment issues in disconnected environments without external internet access.

• Build Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems that combine ICEYE SAR data with customer intelligence documents for context-aware analysis.

• Develop AI agents and workflows using frameworks like LangChain, LangGraph, or similar tools to automate analytical tasks.

• Implement prompt engineering strategies and conversational AI interfaces that enable analysts to query satellite data using natural language.

• Create Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations connecting AI systems with customer data sources.

• Build data fusion pipelines combining SAR imagery with additional intelligence sources (AIS, RF signals, optical imagery, SIGINT).

• Develop automated workflows that correlate and cross-reference information across different data modalities.

• Create lightweight tools, dashboards, and alerting systems tailored to customer operational needs.

• Work embedded with intelligence analysts, data scientists, and military operators to understand mission-critical problems.

• Rapidly prototype AI-powered solutions (code first, polish later) that address immediate operational requirements.

• Experience with Docker and deploying in secure / isolated / air-gapped environments.

• Practical experience with APIs, data pipelines, and integrating systems in production,

• Familiarity with Linux and basic Kubernetes operations.

• Builder mindset: ship fast, iterate with feedback, and prioritize working solutions over perfect architecture.

• Strong communication + customer engagement, able to work embedded with intelligence analysts / military operators.

• Strong spoken and written English, able to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders.
