SAGE – Embedded Software Engineer

The SAGE Mission

SAGE is a student satellite team with the ambitious goal of launching the first CubeSat carrying human cells. The objective is to investigate how aging occurs differently in space compared to Earth. The team is dedicated to developing and testing a flight-ready spacecraft, learning about aerospace engineering along the way, and ultimately launching their contribution to space!

The Position – Embedded Software Engineer

The On-Board Computer is completely developed in-house. Your role entails writing drivers for the flight software, to integrate with the external peripherals and subsystems.

The flight software is written in C using FreeRTOS with the STM32 HAL, familiarity with these topics is of advantage.

Currently the flight software is being implemented, you will be working together with the other team members on the different tasks.

What You Should Bring

• (Basic) knowledge of C
• Embedded systems lecture (microcontroller architecture, peripherals)
• Motivation to learn on your own
• Ideal field of study: Electrical Engineering, Computer Science
