## Job description

## The Role

We are looking for a Software Engineering Intern to work on the ConstellationOS platform. You will own a real project, from design to deployed code, in areas like backend services, simulation, machine learning, or developer tools. Two terms are open: a winter internship starting in November 2026 and a spring internship starting in spring 2027.

## Responsibilities

- Write tested, reviewed code and document it.
- Help with data pipelines or simulation environments.
- Present your work to the team at the end of the term.

## Requirements

- Currently pursuing a B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
- Strong programming skills in Python, Go, C++, or similar.
- Coursework or projects in systems, networking, or machine learning is a plus.
- Able to work on-site in Seattle for the full term (winter: starts November 2026; spring: starts spring 2027).
- U.S. person required (ITAR).

## About Constellation Space

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Constellation Space builds an AI-powered operating system (ConstellationOS) that autonomously manages and orchestrates satellite networks, predicting failures and rerouting traffic in under two seconds.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Seed stage – $6.5M round announced March 2026)
- **Headquarters**: Seattle, Washington, United States
- **Founded**: 2025
- **Founders**: Kamran Majid (CEO), Laith Altarabishi, Raaid Kabir, Omeed Tehrani

## Core Business
- **Primary industries**: Space technology, satellite communications, defense, aerospace
- **Target customers**: Commercial fleet operators, government programs, and ground teams managing multi-vendor constellations (B2B, Government)
- **Mission or purpose statement**: To build the critical autonomous infrastructure required to operate next-generation satellite networks at scale.

## Products & Services
- **ConstellationOS**: An AI-driven orchestration layer that ingests telemetry from satellites, ground stations, and weather systems (100,000+ messages/sec), predicts link degradation using physics-informed ML models, and autonomously executes reroutes, handoffs, and load balancing—all under strict operator policy. Type: SaaS / API platform.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Total funding of $6.5M (oversubscribed Seed round closed March 2026); earlier $125K grant from Toloka.vc
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Y Combinator (Winter 2026 batch), Standard Capital, NVIDIA, OpenAI, Samsung NEXT, Fellows Fund, Founders Future
- **Growth Signals**: Currently in design partner phase with commercial and government operators; team of 4 founders with prior experience at SpaceX, Blue Origin, and NASA; actively hiring (Head of Operations, Principal Wireless Engineer, Graduate/PhD Research Intern ML)

## Competitive Advantages
- **ML-native predictive accuracy** of 90%+ for link failures, providing a 5-minute early warning window.
- **Autonomous action** (reroute, handoff, load balance) in under 2 seconds with zero human intervention.
- **Sub-second optical routing** and predictive thermal load-balancing.
- **Founding team’s deep domain expertise** from SpaceX, Blue Origin, and NASA.
- **ITAR-compliant and air-gapped deployment** options for government and defense clients.

## Strategic Focus
- **Current priorities**: Expanding design partner relationships with commercial and government satellite operators; scaling ConstellationOS from pilot to production; hiring key engineering and operations talent to support growth.
- **Direction for growth**: Becoming the standard operating system for mega-scale satellite networks (10,000+ satellites) and eventually for off-world telecommunications and compute.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture highlights**: Early-stage startup with a small, highly experienced founding team tackling infrastructure problems that directly impact space operations. Emphasis on autonomy, ownership, and solving hard technical challenges.
- **Remote/hybrid/office policy**: Headquarters in Seattle, WA; likely hybrid or in-office given the nature of space systems work (not explicitly stated).
- **Notable perks or engineering culture**: Backed by top-tier VCs (YC, NVIDIA, OpenAI); opportunity to work on mission-critical AI/ML and network orchestration for the space industry; deep technical challenges in ML, distributed systems, and real-time control.
