About the Role

Build the software that moves data through Azora's space-ground optical network, including link control, data plane services, scheduling, and ground-side services. You will implement protocols and services defined by the Network Architect and provide implementation feedback.

Responsibilities

  • Implement networking software for the ground segment: link management, framing/ARQ logic, data ingest pipelines, store-and-forward services, and customer delivery APIs.
  • Build pass scheduling and orchestration services that coordinate satellites, ground stations, and weather data in near-real time.
  • Develop telemetry, tracking, and command (TT&C) software paths, including encrypted command uplink and telemetry processing.
  • Write high-throughput data plane code capable of sustaining multi-Gbps downlink rates from receiver hardware to storage and network egress.
  • Build monitoring, logging, and operational tooling for a distributed, multi-site network.
  • Develop simulation and test harnesses for protocol behavior over fading optical channels (packet loss, burst errors, outages).
  • Participate in on-call support of operational ground stations as the network scales.

Requirements

  • BS/MS in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field.
  • 4+ years of professional software engineering experience, with significant work in networked systems or distributed services.
  • Solid understanding of TCP/UDP, sockets, serialization, and performance tuning of network services.
  • Experience with Linux systems programming and deployment (containers, systemd, CI/CD).

Skills

  • Go
  • Rust
  • C++
  • modern Python
  • satellite ground systems
  • CCSDS protocols
  • SDR/communications software
  • High-performance networking (DPDK, io_uring, kernel bypass, or 10/25/100GbE pipelines)
  • cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP)
  • message queues
  • time-series telemetry stacks (Prometheus, InfluxDB, Grafana)
  • DTN
  • custom ARQ protocols
  • erasure coding for lossy links

Location

  • Tempe, AZ
  • Bay Area, CA

Work Type

  • Onsite
  • Hybrid

Experience Level

  • Unlimited PTO

About the Company

  • Azora is building high-bandwidth communications infrastructure for environments where fiber can’t reach.
  • This work spans LEO spacecraft constellations, lunar exploration missions, GEO satcom, deployable optical ground for defense, and data centers both on- and off-world.
  • To enable rapid global proliferation Azora is developing compact and modular optical terminals small enough to deploy from a backpack, and space terminals that support high speed optical links from LEO out to the Moon.

Equal Opportunity

  • Azora is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
