Indra Space – Leading the Next Generation of Space Systems
At Indra Space, we are on a mission to redefine the European space industry by delivering high-performance small satellite solutions for LEO missions. Our ambition? To become a leading company in end-to-end satellite systems, driving innovation in:
- Position, Navigation & Timing (PNT)
- Secure Communications
- Earth Observation & ISR
- Space Domain Awareness (SDA) and Space Traffic Management (STM)
- Science & space exploration

As the Space Business Unit of Indra Group, we combine cutting-edge technology with a full value chain approach—from satellite design and integration to ground segment and operations. With the integration of Deimos and strategic participation in Hispasat and Hisdesat, we are scaling Europe’s space autonomy and contributing to flagship programs like IRIS², Galileo, EGNOS, and Copernicus.

What We’re Looking For




We are looking for an Engineering professional with 3 to 5 years of experience in the design and development of real-time embedded software systems, ideally within the space or aeronautical industry. The idóneo candidate has strong technical foundations in embedded architectures, real-time operating systems, and software verification, and is comfortable working in highly regulated, mission-critical environments.

The role requires availability for on-call duty and planned interventions.
- Design and develop real-time embedded software systems for space or aeronautical applications in compliance with applicable software development standards.
- Implement high-quality software using C and Python, following industry best practices and coding standards.
- Work with real-time operating systems such as RTEMS, VxWorks, or FreeRTOS on embedded architectures (ARM Cortex, RISC-V, PowerPC, etc.).
- Perform software verification and validation activities, including test specification, definition, and execution using EGSE/SCOE test benches.
