Your mission
With thousands of satellites in orbit providing us with critical services like telecommunications, geolocation and meteorology, ensuring their safety and the long-term sustainability of the space environment is at the core of our mission. Vyoma's vision is to build Europe's first sovereign space surveillance solution that will be capable of mapping all centimetre-scale space objects orbiting in low-Earth orbit (LEO).
To achieve this, we are looking for an experienced Software Engineer who will extend our image processing pipelines, transforming raw payload data into high level information. Your work will sit at the intersection of advanced computer vision algorithms, high performance software and mathematical modelling, shaping how data is processed both on-ground and on-board. You will have the opportunity to influence architectural decisions, explore novel algorithmic approaches, and see your work transition from concept to deployment.
Key responsibilities
As part of Vyoma you will
- Develop, maintain and deploy high-performance algorithms based on Payload Image Data, which include
Image Processing, Uncertainty Quantification
and other mathematical models.
- Produce high-quality code that conforms to the design and functional requirements, including
validation
plans to ensure that code is
fully unit-tested
before integration.
- Select and integrate the most suitable technologies and frameworks to implement
near real-time algorithms
optimised for speed, reliability, and execution within constrained compute and resource budgets.
A note on our process
We review applications in batches every two weeks rather than on a rolling basis, so don't worry if you don't hear from us immediately. If you applied, we will read your application. Our next review is around May 10th. We'll reach out either way by then.Your profile

Why us?
- We nurture your growth.
Our employees are key to the success of Vyoma, that is why we want you to grow fast and assume greater responsibility. We also invest in your training while on the job.
About us
Vyoma is on a mission to solve one of the big issues humanity faces today: the problem of space debris threatening active satellites in orbit. We are building a fleet of space cameras to monitor such space debris. Together with our software suite, we build an accurate catalogue of space objects, automate satellite operations for our customers, and ultimately keep our orbits clean and safe. We are a young and international team of aerospace engineers and software developers, backed by some of the top investors and venture capitalists in Germany.
Our offices are located very centrally in Munich (Bonner Platz). Amongst others, you can expect a great (very international) team atmosphere, highly qualified colleagues, flexible working hours, remote/hybrid work, and a very exciting company vision.
