This is a hybrid in-person role. We generally spend ~2 days a week at the office, so not a huge burden, but you need to be in commuting range. Relocation is provided. Aerospace is a hardware-centric field so it tends to come with the territory.
I'm happy to answer questions via email: doug at the same domain as the website listed above.
Ursa Major | https://ursamajor.com | Entry-level Software Engineer | $95,000 - $130,000 Base | Full-time | Hybrid in-person in northern Colorado, US
Ursa builds propulsion for aerospace and defense, so... rocket engines.
My team works on software and process problems across the company, but we specialize in the data system used by development and test teams. We work on anything from data backhaul, post processing, and anomaly detection to the frontend that lets them plan and manage test campaigns and do data analysis. The data plane is built on the FDAP stack and we have some super interesting work upcoming to integrate some of our data post-processing pipeline with our custom DataFusion UDF library. Overall stack is Rust, Python, Typescript.
Role is hybrid in-person in northern Colorado. Our headquarters is also our manufacturing and test facility, so a super interesting place to spend a couple days a week with amazingly smart and engaged stakeholders. People generally commute from Denver, Boulder, or Fort Collins, all great places to live.
Only open to US citizens or greencard holders due to export laws around rocket engines. I’m the HM so feel free to ping me with any questions. https://ursamajor.com/careers/software-engineer/
Ursa Major | DevOps | Lafayette, CO | Full-time
Rocket engines + you
Ursa is made up of some of the best rocket propulsion engineers in the industry. As we move into stages of more advanced R&D and production, we're outgrowing some of the early tools and processes we had in place.
The Advanced Programs - Software group is being formed to solve these challenges. Think high-throughput data backend to move streaming sensor data from the test stands, and rich data exploration frontends.
We are currently hiring for a DevOps role. The team is small and the potential for impact is high. We work closely with engine design, manufacturing, and test engineers daily. Come help us build rocket engines!
US Citizen or permanent resident required due to ITAR restrictions.

Sure! Our internship program for summer 2022 is open now. We have a rather generic intern req open here: https://jobs.lever.co/ursamajortech/a3637ef2-244a-4239-ae6a-...
A lot of those requirements wouldn't apply to you, but note this line:
This internship could be for any of our Engineering teams: Analysis, Design, Propulsion Development, Avionics, Turbomachinery, Test, etc.
Embedded software/firmware would fit under Avionics.

- FLAVOR: Ubuntu Desktop - HEADLINE: Better palm detection for trackpads - DESCRIPTION: With the caveat that I realize that you need to support many brands of laptop with different trackpad drivers, this is one of my major pains when using a linux (Ubuntu) laptop vs anything else: after hours and hours (and hours) of googling and struggling, I can still not manage to get reasonable palm detection going on my work laptop (Dell XPS 15). When coding, probably once every 10 minutes my palm is mis-interpreted as a finger swipe and my cursor jumps into some unrelated code. ROLE/AFFILIATION: linux software dev, federal gov't
Another related issue: I have helped get a few co-workers set up with Ubuntu on their laptops. Inevitably, once every few months, one comes to me and says "I just ran an update and the 'Restart' popup came up, so I restarted, now my laptop says 'No bootable devices found.'" This happens when Ubuntu is installed in UEFI mode. A kernel update sometimes wipes out the boot image. To fix it, I to get into the BIOS and reselect a bootable UEFI image. This should never, ever happen.
I'm brand new to C, but wouldn't this from the hello world example always eval true?
