Job Title: Staff Software Engineer, Full Stack
Job Type: Full-Time
About Us From telescopes to software architecture, Observable Space provides the foundational elements every organization needs to operate in space.
Observable Space is unlocking continuous, real-time observations of space with the industry’s first line of vertically integrated hardware and software products. Observable Space’s full line of products serves all sectors of the space industry including commercial, science, education, and government customers, as well as astronomy enthusiasts discovering the cosmos.
We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Full Stack Software Engineer to join our dynamic team. This role will involve deep engagement with our backend microservices, typescript front ends, and c++ edge processing applications. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in software engineering, with specific expertise in distributed systems, relational database design, reactive frontend programming, and a keen eye for design. This role will report directly to the VP of Software Engineering.
Observable Space is backed by top institutional investors – Upfront Ventures, Oceans Ventures, Venrex, Marlinspike Partners, and Embedded Ventures - and led by industry experts from SpaceX, Planewave, and National Laboratories.
Key Responsibilities Technical Leadership & Vision
Own multi-quarter technical roadmaps for platform systems, translating company goals into durable architectural decisions.
Define and evangelize engineering standards, patterns, and best practices across teams — writing the documents other engineers reference.
Drive architectural decisions for distributed systems and ensure long-term technical scalability across the stack.
Identify and resolve systemic technical risks before they become production incidents.
Organizational Impact
Lead multi-team technical design processes — writing RFCs, facilitating alignment, and driving decisions to closure.
Actively develop senior and mid-level engineers through design reviews, pairing, and structured feedback.
Translate complex technical tradeoffs into business impact for non-technical stakeholders including executives and customers.
Work closely with cross-functional teams to define and deliver solutions for our customers.
Contribute to hiring by interviewing candidates and helping define what "great" looks like at Observable Space.
Execution & Engineering Excellence
Design, build, and maintain Kotlin backend microservices, C++ edge applications, and reactive frontends.
Design and optimize relational database schemas, ETL pipelines, and data warehousing solutions.
Debug and resolve complex production issues across the full software stack (backend, frontend, and edge).
Ensure high reliability and performance in production systems, and establish the observability practices that make this possible.
Basic Qualifications
8+ years of experience in a relevant software engineering role, with at least 2–3 years in a Staff, Principal, or technical lead capacity.
Demonstrated ability to influence technical direction beyond your immediate team — through documents, standards, or organizational initiatives.
Track record of improving engineering quality, velocity, or culture at an organizational level.
Strong programming skills in Java, Kotlin, C++, or C# (we love our statically typed object oriented languages!).
Excellent data modeling skills - extensive experience working with RDBMSs, ETL processes, and data warehousing.
Experience in a test-driven development environment.
Acute product sense, placing an emphasis on user experience and outcomes over outputs.
An iterative mindset — perfect is the enemy of good, and you know when to pay down technical debt vs. when to ship.
Ability to navigate ambiguity and lead others through it in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience working with foreign function interfaces to call rust and C++ from the JVM
Experience with Kotlin for backend programming and have an allergy to monolithic frameworks and ORMs
Experience with TypeScript and React to create complex user interfaces
A love of astronomy, physics, and science
What We Offer
Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
Cutting-edge projects in a highly innovative environment.
A culture that values collaboration, inclusion, and professional growth.
Interested candidates should submit a resume, and any relevant work samples/portfolio.
Observable Space is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetics, or any other basis protected by federal, state, or local law.
