Staff Software Engineer, Onboard Compute Architecture
About the role
Muon Space is seeking a Staff Architect for the High Performance Compute (HPC) team, to define and evolve the end-to-end architecture of our onboard compute platform. You'll be the technical center of gravity for software architecture, computation and data flows across FPGA, GPU, CPU, and onboard networking, pulling together architectural threads from across the team and shaping a coherent, mission-flexible compute platform that will fly on Muon spacecraft for years to come.
You will work at the intersection of mission requirements, payload capabilities, and platform architecture, ensuring today's designs meet tomorrow's mission needs, and that our compute platform remains modular, configurable, and reusable across a growing fleet of missions.
This position is hybrid and requires working on-site in our San Jose, CA office three days per week.
