About the role
About Kintaro Space Systems
We are building intelligent spacecraft that can coordinate autonomously and process observations onboard. Our first launch target is December 2028.
You will develop and integrate spacecraft software for onboard processing, autonomy and coordination, alongside the simulation and test tools needed to validate it.
What you will do
- Build a shared Python codebase, data interfaces, simple visualisations and automated tests to connect and rerun sensor and mission models.
- Integrate simulated and real observations; preserve timestamps, units and provenance, and label synthetic data clearly.
- Develop and test algorithms for onboard processing and autonomous coordination, evaluating computing, memory and power limits.
- Build statistical or ML baselines for change and anomaly detection; evaluate on held-out data and investigate failure cases.
- Use coding agents and open-source tools; review generated code, document decisions and engage developer communities and technical providers.
About you
- A recent degree in computer science, computer engineering, software engineering or a related field from a leading university.
- Strong Python, Git and debugging skills; comfortable with APIs, data structures, testing and basic databases.
- A software project you can demonstrate and an ML experiment whose data and evaluation you can explain; student projects count.
- Ability to turn incomplete requirements into small working iterations and explain trade-offs to engineers from other disciplines.
Useful exposure (optional): Embedded programming or C/C++, SQL, NumPy/pandas, PyTorch, foundation models, geospatial data, Docker or web visualisation.
