Internship – AI Applications for Space

Join our team and build the future of space technology

We´re expanding our team at Alén Space, and are looking for an intern to join our AI Applications for Space team. We are seeking a passionate, talented, and motivated individual to contribute to the development of an onboard Artificial Intelligence model for Signal Intelligence (SIGINT), capable of identifying and classifying different signals in real time directly from a satellite.

What you will be doing?

• Collaborate in the development and validation of Artificial Intelligence models for the identification and classification of radio frequency signals in space environments.
• Participate in the generation, processing, and labeling of datasets for the training and evaluation of Machine Learning algorithms.
• Support the simulation of real operational conditions through signal degradation and processing techniques.
• Collaborate in the development of applications for payload control and signal acquisition onboard satellites.
• Participate in the evaluation and optimization of algorithms for deployment on high-performance embedded platforms (CPU and FPGA).
• Support signal analysis, monitoring, and processing activities related to Signal Intelligence (SIGINT) applications.
• Prepare technical documentation and collaborate with multidisciplinary teams in the development of innovative space solutions.
