Mandatory Internship (Pflichtpraktikum) – Software Engineering (3–6 months)

Our Mission At constellr, we're harnessing the power of space to solve one of Earth’s greatest challenges: climate resilience & security in a changing world. Our thermal satellite constellation delivers the most accurate land surface temperature data on the market, equipping commercial players, governments, defence agencies, and global institutions with the thermal intelligence they need to make strategic decisions– from national security and infrastructure to agriculture and climate resilience. As a fast-scaling company with offices in Brussels, Freiburg, Munich, Washington and Toulouse, our multidisciplinary team of engineers, scientists, and strategists is building the future of space-based Earth observationLocation: This position is offered on a hybrid basis in our Freiburg office, Germany - working closely with colleagues in the engineering team.Your Role This position is offered exclusively as a mandatory internship (Pflichtpraktikum) that is a required component of a university degree program under German higher education regulations.The internship is designed as a learning-oriented educational placement, with close supervision and mentorship, and does not replace a regular employee role.As a Software Engineering Intern, you will support the Satellite Technology team in improving internal software tools and documentation systems used in satellite development.You will gain hands-on exposure to real-world engineering workflows while being guided by experienced engineers throughout the internship.Key ResponsibilitiesSupport the maintenance and improvement of internal systems engineering documentation platformsAssist in building automation tools for requirements management, task tracking, and visualizationHelp integrate external data sources via APIsSupport engineers in using and improving internal documentation and toolingContribute to improving internal engineering workflows and processesAll tasks are performed under supervision and are aligned with the educational objectives of the internship.What You Will LearnHow software supports space systems engineering workflowsHow satellite development teams manage requirements, documentation, and engineering dataHow automation tools are built for engineering teamsHow modern engineering teams collaborate using DevOps tools and documentation platformsHow software tools support real satellite missions and engineering processesAbout youCurrently enrolled at a university or university of applied sciencesYour study program explicitly requires a mandatory internship (Pflichtpraktikum)Field of study: Computer Science, Software Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related disciplineRequired Skills Basic Python programming skillsFamiliarity with markup languages (Markdown, reStructuredText)Basic experience with Git or other version control systemsInterest in engineering tools and automationNice to Have Experience with DevOps tools or CI/CD pipelinesBasic understanding of web technologies (HTML, CSS, JavaScript)Interest in space systems engineering or satellite developmentExperience with data analysis or visualisation tools (e.g. matplotlib, numpy, pandas) Technologies You May Work WithLanguages: Python, Markdown, reStructuredText, JavaScript, HTML/CSSTools: Git, Docker, GitHub ActionsPlatforms: Internal engineering platforms and integrations (including SharePoint)Why constellr?Gain practical experience in a fast-growing European space technology companyWork closely with engineers, developing a commercial thermal satellite constellationLearn how software supports real-world space systems engineeringBe part of an international, multidisciplinary, and collaborative teamApplication NotePlease include official confirmation from your university stating that:The internship is mandatory (Pflichtpraktikum), and it is a required part of your degree program, including the required duration.Applications without confirmation of mandatory internship status cannot be considered.At constellr, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and welcoming workplace.
