Role: Software Engineer, Unmanned Aircraft (Avionics, Firmware, Autopilot) Hybrid The Mission of the Software Engineer, Unmanned Aircraft As Software Engineer on the HAPS program, you will develop and maintain the custom software that keeps ICEYE's stratospheric electric aircraft flying — spanning the full stack from embedded avionics and command & control systems to simulation environments and ground-based tooling. You will integrate COTS and custom avionics components into a working UAV platform, build and improve hardware-in-the-loop and software-in-the-loop simulation systems, and participate directly in flight test campaigns — turning real-world data into software improvements that push the aircraft's capabilities forward. 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. The company has more than 900 employees,



inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the general source of truth in Earth Observation.
