Who we are
ICEYE is the world leader in sovereign intelligence from space. We deliver persistent monitoring capabilities to detect and respond to changes in any location on Earth.
ICEYE owns the world's largest and most advanced SAR (synthetic aperture radar) satellite constellation. To our customers we provide intelligence with unmatched quality, latency and revisit times, in any weather, day or night. To governments who choose to operate their own constellation we provide this proven capability as a sovereign system.
ICEYE-built constellations serve customers in defence and intelligence, environmental monitoring, insurance and emergency management. We enable fast decisions that contribute to a safer future.
Founded and headquartered in Finland, ICEYE operates globally with over 1000 employees across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.
How we work
- AI-enhanced engineering. We lean into AI in all stages of our engineering process. We use it to learn new domains, analyse a problem space, design solutions, implement code, troubleshoot issues, and communicate better. We expect engineers to lean into these tools as a core part of how they work, not as an occasional shortcut. The goal is not to replace thinking and ownership but to make us more efficient and compress the time needed between idea and working software.
- Rapid iteration with discipline. We prototype quickly, validate ideas, discard what does not work, and invest in what does. We aim for both Speed and Rigor.
- Engineers and product, side by side. We don’t work from requirements handed over a wall. Engineers sit with Product Managers and operational stakeholders, understand the mission context first-hand, and collaborate on what to build next. The best ideas come from people who understand both the problem and the technology deeply enough to see possibilities that neither side would find alone.
- Deliberate about where we invest. Not every wall needs to be indestructible. Domain boundaries, data models, and event contracts are built carefully because they are expensive to change later. Prototypes, UI experiments, and exploratory features are built to learn, not to last. We take on technical debt intentionally and with eyes open, knowing exactly which shortcuts we are taking, why, and when we will revisit them.
How we work (our values)
Make the impossible possible: We set ambitious goals and stay calm under pressure. We bring grit, optimism, and ownership when things get hard, and we keep moving until we find a way.
- Be curious: Go deep, ask questions, listen carefully, and think critically. Understand the “why” behind decisions.
- See the big picture: Stay close to what’s happening across the company so you can make better decisions. Consider how your work affects others.
- Drive effective teamwork: Create psychological safety, invite different perspectives, and build inclusive teams. There are no bad questions.
- Act as one team: We win together. We match tasks to the right owner and stay agile as priorities shift.
- Have fun: What we do matters—and it should be enjoyable. Celebrate progress, take pride in results, and share the wins.
