Rendezvous Robotics · Golden, CO
Skills: Python
Today, everything we send to space is constrained by what fits inside a rocket fairing. That's a fundamental bottleneck to building more capable spacecraft. Rendezvous Robotics is solving this problem with electromagnetic self-assembling tiles: modular spacecraft components that rendezvous, dock, and latch to assemble bigger and more powerful spacecraft than anything that can be folded to fit into a rocket. We're a small team based in Golden, Colorado, executing on a clear path from flight demonstration to our first operational systems. Our work spans hardware, software, and systems engineering. We are looking for the best people in the world who want to build the next generation of advanced spacecraft. This is an early career role for software and computer engineers. If you're graduating in 2027, you'd start in summer 2027. If you're already working and have two years or less of relevant experience, you're just as welcome, and you could start sooner. We care about what you've built and how you approach a hard problem. You probably haven't worked on a spacecraft yet, and that's fine. We'll teach you how to design for space. We're looking for people who have built real things and who keep asking questions until they understand why something works. Responsibilities & Ownership Getting up to speed on writing software for space (fault tolerance, radiation upsets, updating a vehicle that's already in orbit) Flight software in C++ and C, from device drivers and firmware up through the components that wire subsystems together The embedded Linux on our flight computers: building images, debugging on target, and keeping the services on it healthy Microcontroller firmware for the sensors and actuators that move and dock our vehicles Tests, CI, and hardware-in-the-loop setups that catch problems before they reach a vehicle Bringing new boards into the software stack alongside the avionics team Basic Qualifications & …truncated… SAE, a rocketry club, a CubeSat or satellite team…
