You will be embedded in a team responsible for operating, maintaining, and evolving large-scale, mission-critical software systems that support our satellite data processing chain. This is a technically demanding role requiring both depth and breadth across the full software engineering lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, build, and package software components within large, complex C++ and Java software environments
• Perform in-depth analysis, debugging, and root cause investigation of software anomalies in real-time operational systems
• Lead and contribute to software verification, validation, and regression testing activities
• Maintain and improve existing software baselines, ensuring reliability and performance in 24/7 operational contexts
• Collaborate with system engineers, satellite operators, and product teams to implement and test new features or fixes
• Produce clear and thorough technical documentation (anomaly reports, change requests, test reports)
• Support software integration, deployment, and release activities within a configuration-managed environment
• Participate in on-call or shift support activities as required by operational needs (very limited)

Essential Skills and Qualifications

• University degree (Bachelor's or Master's) in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Aerospace, or a related discipline
• Minimum 5+ years of professional experience in software engineering with a strong focus on C++ in large, complex software projects
• Demonstrated expertise in software debugging, troubleshooting, and anomaly analysis in real-time or near-real-time systems
• Solid experience in Java development and maintenance
• Proven ability to navigate, understand, and contribute to large legacy and production codebases
• Hands-on experience with build systems (e.g., CMake, Make, Maven) and software packaging workflows
• Familiarity with version control systems (Git, SVN) and CI/CD pipelines
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a methodical approach to fault isolation
