We designed and built the RIME antenna for this craft. It deploys to 16 meters long and weighs only 1.5 kg! See [1] for some more info.

If you are already in, or are willing to relocate to southern Germany, I'm looking for flexible, multi-domain software engineers to build out our small team here at SpaceTech. Check my profile if you are interested.

Looking forward to a successful launch tomorrow!

I had a brief look at the open positions listed on your website. The only (pure) SWE role that doesn't require a degree in electrical or aerospace engineering seems to be this one:

?

Yes, that's the role I'm looking to fill at the moment, but it's a small company, and the horizontal coupling is tight. A SWE here will be confronted with many hands-on EE and ME challenges as well (hence the on-site requirement). People who thrive in such environments are a good fit.
Lol, that neutral buoncy, super light material nervousness in the video for the deployment. Dont touch it, but also do not break it, its machined from electrically carrying carbon fog.

:D

Well done.

PS: Glueckwunsch, beim Jupiter

Nice video on the link!

I like how those "1-G challenges" were solved.

Indeed, the length of this antenna required some creativity. We have some really cool, high-tech solutions [1] for these "1-G challenges" as well.
