Job description

Overview

Zenno is pioneering scalable technology for sustainable space exploration. We’re developing the world’s most powerful and efficient magnetic actuators using superconducting electromagnets.

We maintain a high launch cadence-flying at least one mission per year and our long-term vision is a future where intelligent machines operate autonomously in space, free from reliance on Earth-based resources.

We’re now expanding our technology to enable fully autonomous magnetic close-proximity operations and formation flight, unlocking capabilities that have never been possible before.

The role

We are seeking driven and innovative engineers to solve complex, hands-on R&D problems using your software and firmware engineering skills. You’ll contribute across the development process, from simulation and embedded firmware to integration with flight hardware. This is a generalist role, and your work will set the standard for how we build software at Zenno.

What You’ll Do

  • Build tools and simulation frameworks for complex spacecraft operations, including AI / ML-based control
  • Develop firmware for flight hardware, with clean documentation and version control
  • Apply simulation and design to improve our Z01 technology and enable new mission architectures
  • Work directly with the engineering team to bring designs to life in testbeds and flight hardware
  • Support code reviews, debugging, and test automation for your own and others’ work
  • Adapt and contribute to other areas of prototype development and experimental testing
  • You’ll need to be resourceful, collaborative, and unafraid to try new things.

What We’re Looking For

  • A degree or a demonstrable knowledge set equivalent to a degree in engineering, physics, computer science, or a related field
  • Experience in software, firmware, and hardware-oriented development
  • Comfortable owning the full development cycle : requirements, implementation, testing, and support
  • Familiarity with physical simulation techniques and relevant toolkits
  • Programming experience in C (required), and C++ (preferred); other languages also valued
  • Bonus : familiarity with the space environment and how it affects software and embedded systems
  • Our Culture

    We’re a tight, focused startup where you’ll have real ownership and impact. You’ll be the expert in your domain, working closely with a collaborative and mission-driven team.

    If you want to help build a radically different future in space, one powered by superconductors and driven by autonomy, we’d love to hear from you.
