Design the next generation of Earth observation satellites
At SATLANTIS, we create advanced Earth observation technologies designed to address integral challenges through high-performance satellite missions. From concept design to mission operations, our teams work on complete space systems that combine innovation, precision, and real-world impact.
As a Space Systems Design Engineer, you will contribute to the definition, design, and evolution of satellite systems and payloads, working at system level across the full lifecycle of complex space missions.
What’s in it for you
- End-to-end mission exposure: You will take part in the design of complete satellite systems, from early concepts to mission-ready architectures.
- System-level engineering responsibility: Work on satellite architecture, subsystem integration, launcher compatibility, and engineering trade-offs across missions.
- Cross-disciplinary growth: You will collaborate with AIT, operations, thermal, and flight dynamics teams, gaining a broad space engineering perspective.
- High technical ownership:



You will actively contribute to key design decisions and system-level technical definitions.
- Flexible growth path: Open to different experience levels, with structured onboarding and learning to progressively increase responsibility.
- Purpose-driven space projects: Your work will directly contribute to Earth observation missions with real impact on science and sustainability.

Your mission
Your mission will be to design and define satellite and payload systems that are technically robust, mission-ready, and aligned with launch and operational constraints.
By combining system thinking with engineering execution, you will help transform mission concepts into real spacecraft operating in orbit.
You will:
- Design satellite concepts using CAD, including structure, subsystem layout, cable routing, and launcher compliance.
- Define and coordinate system-level requirements and technical trade-offs across subsystems.
