In order to support the growth of our activities at one of the group's customers site in Prague (Czech Republic) we are looking for a C++ developer with at least two years of professional experience.

• Design of components to be implemented
• Automated software testing

The components and infrastructures to be implemented include:

• satellite data processors
• data flow management modules or processors orchestrators
• data dissemination and archiving components
• data index and catalogues generators

The ideal applicant is a Software Engineer with a University degree in a relevant discipline (Computer Science, Engineering, Physics or Remote Sensing)

• Very good experience of C++
• Proven experience in object-oriented software engineering and development

The working language is English. The ability of working effectively in that language, including the participation in technical meetings and/or boards and the production of high-quality technical documents and reports, is therefore essential

The work can be done in part remotely, but because certain tasks must be done at the customer's site and given that commuting costs will not be supported, in practice the candidate will have to be based in Prague or surroundings.

The start date is ASAP, possibly within the first half of 2025.

Priority will be given to candidates already eligible to work in the Czech Republic
