Job description

Job Summary:
E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of space-powered Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. They are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join their Ground Software team, responsible for building mission-critical software for satellite constellation operations and developing highly scalable backend systems using Python.
Responsibilities:
• Architect and scale a Python-based Ground Data System designing microservices that handle real-time command uplink, telemetry downlink, and event processing across a growing constellation
• Build binary protocol pipelines for CCSDS-compliant spacecraft communication, including TC/TM framing, CFDP file transfers, and AES encryption/decryption
• Own the messaging infrastructure to evaluate and optimize MQTT broker architecture, and quantify performance bottlenecks (MQTT throughput, QoS tuning, database writes, CPU-bound encoding/decoding)
• Build high-performance APIs for mission-critical command and control operations
• Create workflow orchestration systems for automated satellite and ground procedures
• Integrate with ground station networks and cloud infrastructure to develop scalable data ingestion and processing pipelines for high-rate satellite telemetry and command streams
• Establish software engineering and DevOps best practices including code reviews, testing standards, and architectural guidelines
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Flight Software, Payload, and Mission Operations Teams
Qualifications:
Required:
• 5+ years of backend software engineering experience building scalable, fault-tolerant systems for telemetry ingestion, command & control, or real-time data processing at scale
• Proficiency with microservices architecture, message queues, gRPC, and protobufs
• Expert Python skills with experience with modern frameworks (FastAPI, Pydantic, SQLAlchemy), asynchronous programming (asyncio, threading), API development
• Knowledge of CCSDS protocols (TC, TM, CFDP) or willingness to learn space communication standards quickly
• Time-series databases (InfluxDB, TimescaleDB, or similar at high ingest rates)
• Kubernetes production experience (HPA, resource management, networking, debugging pods at scale)
• Experience designing and implementing event-driven architectures and workflow orchestration systems
• Solid understanding of AWS services, PostgreSQL, and container-based deployment solutions
• Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and modern software development practices
• Experience with message bus systems (Kafka, MQTT) and in-memory databases for real-time data processing
• Knowledge of Infrastructure as Code (Terraform/OpenTofu), monitoring/observability tools, and high-availability system design
• Experience with high-throughput data processing and performance optimization for mission-critical applications
• Strong system design skills with ability to make architectural decisions for scalable distributed systems
Preferred:
• Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, or equivalent
• Experience with Kubernetes and container orchestration platforms
• Knowledge of time-series databases
• Background in satellite operations, mission control systems, aerospace, defense, or other mission-critical industries
• Grafana/observability stack for distributed systems monitoring
• Strong intellectual curiosity and commitment to continuous learning
• Exceptional attention to detail and an ownership mentality
Company:
E-Space is bridging Earth & space with the most sustainable LEO space system, delivering real-time, anywhere comms, IoT & Smart-IoT services Founded in 2021, the company is headquartered in Toulouse, FRA, with a team of 201-500 employees. The company is currently Growth Stage.
