Flight Software Engineering Summer 2026 Intern

As a Flight Software Engineering Intern, you will work directly with Reditus Space’s engineering team to design, develop, and test the flight software of the ENOS vehicle. You’ll gain hands-on experience with the full lifecycle of flight software development, from initial design through integrated spacecraft Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) testing.

Responsibilities

• Develop and test embedded flight software for satellite systems
• Implement telemetry and command handling protocols
• Debug and troubleshoot flight software issues
• Collaborate with engineers to define and implement flight software interfaces
• Maintain clear software documentation and utilize version control processes
• Support system-level testing and validation of flight software components

Qualifications

• Currently pursuing a B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field (senior undergraduate or graduate level)
• Strong programming skills in C/C++
• Understanding of embedded systems and real-time operating systems (RTOS)
• Knowledge of spacecraft systems and operations
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• Experience with version control systems (e.g., Git)
• Experience with flight software frameworks (e.g., NASA cFS, F Prime)
