DevOps Automation Engineer Sateliot is a Barcelona-based startup in the New Space sector, becoming the first satellite telecommunications operator that will provide global and continuous connectivity to all the elements that will make up the massive Internet of Things (IoT) universe under the 5G protocol. Sateliot is the perfect complement for large telecommunications companies by providing them with the necessary infrastructure where terrestrial technologies do not arrive. Your primary mission will be to drive an "automation-first" culture and engineer the solutions that allow us to scale for our next phases.

Process Analysis & Automation: Sit with User, Ground, and Space Segment teams to understand their daily operations, manual procedures, and pain points. Create custom tools and applications (primarily Python ) and scripts ( Bash ) that automate complex processes. This includes, but is not limited to, log parsing, E2E test orchestration, and managing data workflows for our satellites and ground stations.

Design, implement, and maintain CI/CD pipelines (using GitHub Actions) to ensure agile and reliable software integration and delivery, with a special focus on building and deploying firmware for our space subsystems.

Infrastructure Automation: Design, build, and maintain infrastructure solutions in AWS (EC2, EKS, IAM, RDS, S3) using IaC tools like Terraform and Ansible to support the new automated processes.

AI/ML Workflow Implementation: In collaboration with other teams, explore and implement AI-driven workflows to accelerate the analysis of logs, telemetry, and sensor data.

Cloud Network Management: Formulate and maintain network solutions in AWS, including VPCs, VPC peerings, Transit Gateways, and IPSec VPNs. Connect these cloud environments with our labs and field tests using secure solutions (e.g. Develop and implement monitoring, logging, and metrics solutions (using Grafana stack and ELK) to ensure system health, performance, and uptime.

Collaboration and Integration:



Work with Ground Station providers and operators (MNOs/MVNOs) to design and initiate the necessary network interfaces (VPNs, direct links, APIs). Actively promote software engineering best practices, including version control (Git), testing, code reviews, and documentation, to help other teams adopt them.

Programming and Scripting: An "automation-first" mindset. Strong programming skills in Python to build applications and tools. Expert proficiency in scripting (Bash) .

Experience: At least 3 years of experience as a DevOps, Platform, or Automation Engineer. Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Expert command of Terraform and/or Ansible. Cloud (AWS): Deep knowledge of AWS services (EC2, EKS, IAM, RDS, S3) and networking (VPC, VPC Peering, Transit Gateways).

CI/CD: Competence in integration and deployment using CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions or similar).

Experience in developing and deploying containerized applications (Docker/Podman) and orchestration with Kubernetes (k8s).

Networking: Strong understanding of networking concepts and the ability to automate network configurations and troubleshoot (IP routing, subnetting, iptables, etc.). Competence in monitoring, logging, and metrics using the Grafana stack or ELK. Solid experience in Linux server administration. Knowledge of software engineering best practices (Git, testing, code reviews, documentation).

Experience in the space or telecommunications industry.

Experience with AI/ML workflows for data analysis.

Experience in developing 4G/5G core networks or familiarity with concepts like MME, HSS, S6a, S8, AMF, SMF. You will be part of one of the fastest-growing start‐ups in Spain with integral reach along getting into the challenging world of New Space & Telecommunication. Full time permanent Contract Tax benefits with ticket restaurant, transportation and kindergarten, training programs.

We promote good physical and mental health, with a Health insurance, Fresh fruit in the office and the possibility of sharing the cost of bicycle transport or gyms. The chance to be part of one of the most exciting and disruptive space projects in Europe #
