Intern (m/f/d) Redundant Flight Software Development

About Rocket Factory Augsburg At Rocket Factory Augsburg (RFA) , we have one clear goal: to create low-cost, flexible, and reliable access to space. We specialize in building small launch vehicles designed to deploy satellites into Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and beyond. Together with you, we aim to revolutionize space services and help improve life on Earth. Sounds interesting? Then join our journey and become part of the team driving the New Space movement in Europe. About the Team Our international and agile software team is searching for a motivated I ntern in R e dundant Flight Software Development . You enjoy working in a dedicated, dynamic and international environment that aims for high-performance engineering solutions in aerospace technology? A re you excited by the prospect of writing software and fault-tolerant architectures that directly safeguard mission success? Join us and help shape the next generation of resilient launch vehicle systems. Your Tasks Support the design, build and test of prototype redundant flight computer architectures and network topologies utilizing commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware Evaluate and modify COTS hardware configurations to expand operational envelopes in extreme flight environments Conduct Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) to identify failures, define fault-tolerance requirements and implement robust software countermeasures Analyze the overall avionics architecture to identify opportunities for leveraging standard instrumentation sensors and processing units to improve system fault tolerance Design and build Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) test setups to validate enhanced fault-tolerance algorithms Your Qualifications Currently enrolled in Bachelor or Master studies in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Computer Science, or related discipline Demonstrated experience in embedded software development, gained through academic projects, student competitions, or prior internships Understanding of sensor and actuator interfacing, including hardware - software integration and communication between embedded systems and peripheral devices </ul
