Spire Global

<div>Spire is making a fundamental shift in how it operates its constellation. We are moving from a model where trained operators watch dashboards and escalate to experts, to one where the system is fully autonomous, self-healing, and data intelligent. This team is building that future, and this role sits at the center of it.
The old model relies on operators, escalations, manual processes, and institutional knowledge locked in the heads of a few experts. It does not scale and it does not belong in a modern space company. We know what we want to replace it with: SRE principles applied to a constellation, autonomous fault handling, AI-driven anomaly detection, low toil, high data quality, and continuous improvement baked into the system.
You will be one of the engineers who makes that real.
What You Will Work On
Autonomous Operations:<ul><li>
Design and build fault detection, isolation, and automated recovery pipelines for satellites and ground stations</li><li>
Drive elimination of manual processes. If a human is doing it repeatedly, automate it.</li><li>
Build space situational awareness systems so the fleet always knows its own state</li><li>
Develop operational automation for mission execution at scale</li></ul>
Telemetry and Data Platform:<ul><li>
Architect and build a flexible data platform that ingests, stores, and surfaces telemetry from space and ground assets</li><li>
Build analytics and visualization tools that surface operational insight and not just raw data</li><li>
Apply ML and AI techniques to detect anomalies, predict failures, and optimize constellation performance</li><li>
Work directly with data at every layer from pipeline design to query</li></ul>
Reliability Engineering:<ul><li>
Define and instrument SLOs and reliability metrics for space and ground assets</li><li>
Build monitoring and alerting systems that know what matters and ruthlessly suppress noise</li><li>
Own configuration control and software rollout processes for on-orbit and ground assets</li></ul>
Mission Software:<ul><li>
Build real-time dashboards and operator tooling that make mission status immediately legible</li><li>
Collaborate directly with satellite operators and mission teams to turn operational pain into software solutions</li><li>
Design systems for automated mission execution including planning, scheduling, and commanding at scale</li></ul>
Basic Qualifications<ul><li>
5+ years of professional software engineering, SRE, or DevOps experience</li><li>
Strong Python skills across backend services, data pipelines, and automation. Not just scripts.</li><li>
Real experience applying data analysis to solve complex operational or technical problems, comfortable working directly with data at every layer from pipeline design to query</li><li>
Solid Linux fundamentals including bash scripting and basic system administration</li><li>
Experience with containerized development and production environments</li><li>
The communication skills to work across engineering, operations, and mission teams and translate real-world requirements into working software</li></ul>
Preferred Qualifications<ul><li>
Experience with data backends such as Postgres, Redis, Elasticsearch, or S3</li><li>
Hands-on experience with Databricks or modern data Lakehouse tooling</li><li>
Experience building or operating monitoring and alerting systems such as Grafana, Prometheus, or Nagios</li><li>
Infrastructure as Code experience with tools such as Terraform or Ansible</li><li>
ML or AI applications in an operational or monitoring context</li><li>
Experience with Python data visualization libraries</li></ul>
Spire operates a hybrid work model, and this position will require you to work a minimum of three business days per week in the office.
Access to US export-controlled software and/or technology may be required for this role. If needed, Spire will arrange the necessary licenses&mdash;this is not something candidates need to have before applying. #LI-MK1<div>

Senior Software Engineer - Space Reliability

<div>Spire Global is a space-to-cloud analytics company that owns and operates the largest multi-purpose constellation of satellites. We are hiring a Software Engineer to join our US-focused RFGL (Radio Frequency Geolocation) and Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) product team.
This role is not the algorithmic or scientific core of our geolocation capability (that sits with our Principal RF Engineer and research team). Instead, you will own the operational side: deploying and maintaining production RFGL/SIGINT software systems on AWS, handling data pipelines and integrations (internal + customer-facing), building monitoring tooling and automation, supporting satellite tasking workflows, and troubleshooting/fixing issues across payloads, ground systems, and infrastructure to drive RFGL product success for commercial, government, and defense customers.
ITAR restrictions apply to the work performed on this team. You will work under the direct supervision and mentorship of a senior software engineer on a small, high-impact team. This is an early-to-mid-career hands-on role ideal for someone who thrives in iterative, production-focused environments and wants to contribute meaningfully to mission-critical space systems without needing deep RF estimation theory expertise upfront.
What You'll Do:<ul><li>
Deploy, maintain, and monitor RFGL and SIGINT software products in AWS production environments, ensuring high availability and performance for real customers</li><li>
Build and improve data handling pipelines, integrations with Spire internal systems, and customer-facing data delivery platforms</li><li>
Develop tooling and automation for production monitoring, alerting, logging, and operational observability</li><li>
Support satellite tasking operations and command workflows that enable RF geolocation missions</li><li>
Investigate and resolve bugs, performance issues, or enhancement needs in satellite payload software, ground systems, and related infrastructure</li><li>
Collaborate closely with the senior software engineer, RF domain experts, and cross-functional teams to implement incremental improvements that directly enhance RFGL product reliability and capability</li><li>
Contribute to infrastructure automation, CI/CD processes, and secure deployment practices in a regulated environment</li></ul>
Required Qualifications:<ul><li>
2&ndash;5 years of professional software engineering experience (or equivalent academic + internship/project work for strong early-career candidates)</li><li>
Demonstrated hands-on experience with AWS (EC2, S3, Lambda, ECS/EKS, CloudWatch, IAM, or similar services) &mdash; this is critical</li><li>
Proficiency in Python for scripting, automation, data processing, and backend tooling</li><li>
Solid Linux fundamentals (administration, bash scripting, system troubleshooting)</li><li>
Experience building or maintaining production systems with a focus on reliability, monitoring, and operational excellence</li><li>
Strong communication skills and comfort working collaboratively in a small team under senior guidance</li></ul>
Preferred Qualifications: (These are differentiators)<ul><li>
Security background or experience implementing secure engineering practices, compliance controls, or working in regulated/government environments</li><li>
Background with big data systems, pipelines, or tools (e.g., Spark, Kafka, Databricks, S3-based data lakes)</li><li>
Infrastructure-as-Code experience (Terraform, Ansible, CloudFormation, etc.)</li><li>
Prior exposure to space, aerospace, satellite operations, ground stations, or related domains</li><li>
Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, etc.), or observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack)</li><li>
Any experience reading/debugging C++ or embedded systems code (helpful for payload/ground system work)</li></ul>

The anticipated base salary range for this position is listed below. Final base salary for this role will be based on the location, skills, experience and qualifications. In addition to base compensation, this role is eligible for commissions and annual equity awards. This role is also eligible for our employee benefits program, including vacation, sick, and personal time off; optional medical, dental, vision, life, and disability coverage; a 401(K) plan; health and wellness reimbursement program; and participation in Spire&rsquo;s Employee Stock Purchase Plan.</div><div>
