SUPO) ## Why this role matters Testing and environment reliability are often the hidden tax on engineering velocity - slow feedback, flaky environments, and manual processes that quietly drain team capacity. This role exists to systematically remove that toil.

By bringing an automation-first mindset to everything from test coverage to environment management, this engineer keeps feedback fast, releases stable, and quality high. They don't just maintain the testing discipline - they elevate it, coaching teams and building the kind of automated foundations that let engineering move with confidence.

The result is less time fighting fires, more time shipping. ## Who We Are ICEYE is the world leader in sovereign intelligence from space.
