Job Description
- Fullstack Software Engineer
- InSAR - Engineering
- Helsinki, Finland
- InSAR Exploitation Team
- Permanent
- Hybrid
- Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required)
ICEYE delivers space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to governments and allied nations. This includes sovereign and turnkey ISR missions leveraging ICEYE's world-leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, as well as access to data from the world's largest SAR satellite constellation. These capabilities enable partners to detect and respond to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy - day or night and in any weather, supported by ultra high-resolution imagery and high-frequency revisits.
As a trusted partner for defense, intelligence, security, and maritime domain awareness, ICEYE's near real-time data creates a tactical advantage for mission-critical operations. Designed for dual use, the platform also serves civil protection and commercial users for natural-catastrophe intelligence, insurance, maritime monitoring (including oil-spill detection), and finance, contributing to global security and community resilience.
ICEYE operates internationally with offices in Finland, Poland, Spain, Japan, the UAE, Greece, and the US. The company has more than 900 employees, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation.
The Role
You'll build the APIs, services, and slim UI that make our analytics easy to run and operate. Think: job submission & tracking for stacks‑based processing, product catalogs/metadata (e.g., STAC‑friendly), access control, and data delivery. You'll bring software maturity (tests, docs, observability, security) to a high‑velocity, research‑heavy environment. You'll join at a moment where core workflows, dashboards, and APIs already exist, and help to harden, extend, and standardize them for wider internal and external use.
What You'll Do
- Design and ship cloud‑native Python services (e.g., FastAPI) with well‑versioned REST APIs and solid contracts
- Model domain data for Postgres/PostGIS (jobs, provenance, results) and implement robust access patterns
- Make long‑running work first‑class: asynchronous jobs, idempotency, retries, clear user feedback
- Build a pragmatic TypeScript/React UI focused on operability: job authoring, status, metrics, and basic visualization hooks
- Production hygiene: tests, CI/CD, docs, API schemas; instrument observability (CloudWatch/Datadog/Otel) with actionable alerts
- Secure coding by default (authn/z, secrets, dependency hygiene)
- Use AI‑assisted tools for coding/tests/docs responsibly—share patterns that lift the whole team
- Work with the broader defense and intelligence engineering team to integrate and serve the tools you help build
