Role: Senior Software Engineer, Product Engineering Department: Solutions Location: Finland, Espoo Reports to: Engineering Manager / Team Lead Employment type: Permanent / Full-time Working type: Hybrid Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO) The Mission of the Role In this role, you build the software that turns ICEYE’s radar data into products that can be trusted and used on the ground, in the moments that matter most. Satellite data is only valuable if it is usable when it matters. Your role, as part of the team, is to ensure our Solutions are fast, reliable, and simple to operate, so our customers can monitor floods, fires, and other natural and man-made events in near-real time, even when conditions are challenging. You will work at the intersection of product, science, and engineering, and you will ship end-to-end. One Role, Two Paths We are hiring for this profile to fill a critical gap in either our direct Product teams or our foundational Core Analysis Platform team. During the process, we will assess where your skills and interests leverage the most impact: Product Teams (e.g., Flood, Wildfire): Your customer is the external client (e.g., Government or Insurance users). You focus on the "last mile"—shipping end-to-end features, visualizing insights for non-experts, and driving commercial outcomes. Core Analysis Platform Team: Your customer is the internal expert (Analysts, Peril Leads, Meteo) and other Product Teams. You focus on the "engine"—building the high-scale execution environments, data pipelines, and advanced tools that allow our experts to model perils (Flood, Fire, Wind) accurately and efficiently. Who We Are ICEYE delivers space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to governments and allied nations. This includes sovereign and turnkey ISR missions leveraging ICEYE’s world-leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, as well as access to data from the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation. These capabilities enable partners to detect and respond to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy, day or night and in any weather. Designed for dual use, the platform serves defense, intelligence, and security users, and also civil protection and commercial users for natural catastrophe intelligence, insurance, maritime monitoring, and finance. ICEYE operates internationally with offices in Finland, Poland, Spain, Japan, the UAE, Greece, and the US. The company has more than 900 employees, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation. Why this role? If you like hard product problems, fast feedback, and real ownership, this role is a good fit. Our domain is complex. We work with geospatial data, uncertain inputs, time-critical decisions, and customers who need answers that hold in real situations. The job is to turn that complexity into products that are clear, reliable, and easy to evolve, and to run them in the real world. You will ship end-to-end, get changes to production frequently, and own supportability so the system is simple enough that others can operate it safely, not just the person who built it How we work Flow over ceremony (direction we are accelerating toward) We are deliberately moving toward a flow-optimized way of working. Finish over start. Limit WIP. Remove blockers early. Ship in small increments. We use flow and reliability signals (lead time, deployment frequency, MTTR) to steer improvements. We do not use metrics for micromanagement. You will help make this real by tightening feedback loops and reducing handoffs and thrash. Paved paths with escape hatches (direction we are standardizing) We are standardizing the basics so teams can move fast safely. Templates, pipelines, and guardrails should make the safe way the easy way. We keep escape hatches when context demands it. We improve paved paths based on real usage and friction. You will help turn recurring pain into better defaults in CI/CD, local dev parity, testing, and release practices. Strategic rhythm (how we operate today, and we want you to strengthen it) We protect focus time and invest in sustainability. Fridays are typically Enablement Days for learning, refactoring, improving shared capabilities, and reducing recurring toil. We want you to lean into this by shipping adoption-ready improvements such as templates, automation, and runbooks. You build it, you run it (supportability-first, how we operate today) We own what we ship in production. The goal is not heroics. The goal is systems that are observable, diagnosable, and safe to operate with sane defaults and clear runbooks. We want you to raise the bar on operability with better signals, faster diagnosis, and less reliance on tribal knowledge. In this role you will Ship product value end-to-end Turn ambiguous problems into small, testable increments and get them safely into production Collaborate daily with Product, SAR scientists, ML/GIS colleagues, and other engineers to align on outcomes and constraints Build for supportability and reliability Participate in the team’s on-call and incident response rotation (team-dependent) Improve operability over time with alerts that matter, dashboards that help, logs that tell the story, and runbooks that enable safe mitigation Improve team flow and reduce friction Identify bottlenecks (flaky tests, slow CI, painful local dev, unclear interfaces or requirements) and remove them Reduce recurring toil through automation and better defaults so the team spends more time on novel problems Make pragmatic architecture decisions Prefer reversible, incremental decisions and the simplest architecture that fits the current context Apply patterns (modularization, migrations/strangler approaches, event-driven components when justified) to keep change easy Document key decisions with lightweight ADRs for fast alignment and long-term clarity Multiply others Raise the team’s bar with thoughtful reviews, pairing, mentoring, and knowledge sharing Teach the why behind engineering choices (supportability, flow, maintainability), not just the how As a Senior Engineer, you will drive quality, architecture, and delivery within your team’s domain. You will contribute to shared paved paths and cross-solution alignment in partnership with Staff Engineers, Tech Leads, and enablement efforts. What success looks like (first 3 to 6 months) Production impact: You have shipped meaningful product slices to production using our standard environments and CI/CD Flow improvement: You have removed one concrete bottleneck or friction point (for example, stabilized flaky tests, simplified a release step, improved local dev parity, clarified an interface) Supportability: You have improved observability and runbooks so incidents are easier to diagnose and mitigate without relying on tribal knowledge Strategic contribution: You have delivered at least one adoption-ready improvement during Enablement Days (template, library, automation, checklist, runbook) that the team actually uses Must-haves Senior-level experience (typically 7+ years or equivalent) designing, delivering, and maintaining cloud native production software in collaborative teams Production maturity: you have seen systems fail, you learn from incidents, and you design for resilience and operability Flow mindset: you prioritize finishing, unblocking, and reducing context switching over starting more parallel work Modern stack proficiency: strong experience with Python (FastAPI / async) and TypeScript/React, with a focus on readability and long-term maintainability Skilled in architecting Docker-based workflows to accelerate CI/CD pipelines and simplify cloud deployments. Communication: you explain trade-offs clearly to non-technical stakeholders (Product, Design, Science) and drive shared understanding Automation mindset: you use tooling (including AI-assisted workflows where permitted) to reduce boilerplate and speed up routine work, while keeping humans accountable for correctness, security, and quality Office collaboration: you welcome working 3 days per week in the Espoo office and thrive in direct collaboration. Nice-to-haves Experience with event-driven architecture patterns & implementation, and distributed systems Familiarity with Kubernetes, and infrastructure-as-code (for example, Terraform) in a product team context Background in GIS, remote sensing, or data-intensive applications Key Competences In addition to the requirements above, we evaluate candidates on these qualities throughout the hiring process: Intellectual firepower: you structure complex problems and communicate with clarity Ownership and action: you take accountability for outcomes and deliver Team player: you work across roles and teams and contribute to shared success Integrity and growth mindset: you operate with transparency, learn from setbacks, and keep improving Application Process TA screen Hiring manager interview Panel interview Task presentation Department lead interview SVP of Solutions interview
