Software Engineer

We're looking for a Mission Operations Software Engineer to help us build a next generation commercial weather constellation for real-time, high-impact forecasting. In this role, you will develop the mission-critical software systems necessary to launch, deploy, and operate a fleet of scientific instruments in space, from Earth. Come join a group of engineers and scientists that dream on the IR spectrum, call astrodynamics "fun", and could talk for days about why time is way harder than you think. Together, we will build the biggest weather platform in the world! **What You'll Do: ** - Develop the tools mission operators and climate scientists need to achieve mission success - Support payload operators and scientists in achieving mission success - Contribute to the definition of interfaces between various components (ground system to spacecraft, spacecraft bus to payload, etc.) - Work with DevOps and IT teams on topics such as environments, deployment strategies, and security measures **What you bring: ** - 4+ years of experience building production software - B.S. in Computer Science, Aerospace Engineering, or related field - Experience developing fault-tolerant, production-quality software - Understanding of distributed systems architecture - Intermediate/Advanced knowledge of Python (2+ years) - Experience with AI-assisted development for planning, code generation and debugging - REST API design, implementation and frameworks (aiohttp, Flask, etc.) - Data modeling (Data Classes, Type Hinting) - Databases and Python interfaces, with an emphasis on MongoDB and InfluxDB - Intermediate knowledge of SQL, NoSQL, and/or time series databases - Communication protocols (namedtuple, struct, socket) - Quality assurance (pytest, mocker, PEP 8) - Web applications: Typescript, React, HTML, CSS - Platforms/Infrastructure - AWS (Elastic Container Service, Lambda, S3, SQS) - Terraform - Intermediate knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes Bonus Skills: - Exposure to aerospace systems (i.e. satellites, airplanes, rockets) - Exposure to satellite telemetry data processing (e.g., CCSDS) - Exposure to satellite mission planning and resource deconfliction - Knowledge of security best practices -- secrets management, encryption protocols, vulnerability identification and mitigation - Argo Workflows/Events - Async I/O (asyncio, aiohttp) - C/C++ experience - Some knowledge of GCP, Azure resources - Scientific computing (NumPy/SciPy, Pandas, Matplotlib) - Deeper InfluxDB experience and knowledge: schemas, database management, etc. - Data visualization - Visualization platforms (Grafana, DataDog, Plotly Dash) - Graphics and plotting libraries (Plotly, SVG, Canvas, WebGL, D3.js, Three.js) Tomorrow.io is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer.
