Who are we?

ICEYE is the global leader in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite operations for Earth Observation, persistent monitoring, and natural catastrophe solutions; owning and operating the world's largest SAR constellation. ICEYE is headquartered in Finland and operates from five international locations with more than 600 employees from nearly 60 countries, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation.

Our satellites acquire images of Earth at any time – even when it’s cloudy or dark – providing commercial and government partners with unmatched persistent monitoring capabilities. Information derived from our SAR images helps customers make data-driven decisions to address time-critical challenges in various sectors, such as maritime, disaster management, insurance, and finance.

Our team is a tight-knit group of experts across many disciplines (e.g., engineering, software development, radar technology, etc.). We’re innovative, driven people who strive for excellence in everything we do. Teamwork, curiosity, and having fun are core values at ICEYE, and contribute to Making the Impossible possible!!

Why should you work for us?

ICEYE is at the cutting edge of new technology and we are continuing to build and operate our commercial constellation of SAR satellites. Working with ICEYE, you will be part of making the impossible possible, whilst shaping the Earth Observation industry. You will work with varied, diverse and engaged colleagues to further the ICEYE mission. At ICEYE we realise that without great people we can not succeed, therefore you will be an integral, valued and appreciated colleague, with the ability to directly shape the vision and direction of the business.

We actively support Continuous Professional Development, and will provide access to a range of avenues to allow you to succeed, including courses, training and attendance at conferences. ICEYE is a place where your development, your growth and your success is a priority.

What is the role?

You will be a part of a small, dedicated team working on an exciting challenge: developing and maintaining a fully automated orbit determination system for ICEYE’s entire fleet of SAR satellites. This system is a critical component of ICEYE’s ground segment, since it is required for everything from ground antenna tracking to SAR image processing to propulsion activity planning. We are continuously working to improve the accuracy and reliability of this system while also adding new features and capabilities.

In this role, you will:

• Work closely with other Flight Dynamics team members to develop and maintain ICEYE’s automated orbit determination software
• Apply problem solving and analysis skills to new issues and feature requests
• Implement and monitor automated metrics to assess and improve system performance
• Collaborate with other engineering and operations teams to support satellite launches, propulsion activities, and fleet planning

• Share Flight Dynamics domain knowledge with the rest of the organization
