Starting at Astra when they were approximately 30 people in a single building, I made contributions to the radio systems and terrestrial software teams. Astra grew rapidly to fill multiple buildings in a few short years. Code contributions were primarily Python, C/C++ and Javascript, transport ranged from RS485, S-band radio, layer 2/3 Ethernet and more. I worked closely with our Electrical Engineers to solve problems where software meets hardware, as well as software teammates to design telemetry acquisition patterns for test and flight.
