Vyoma is on a mission to solve one of the big issues humanity faces today: the problem of space debris threatening active satellites in orbit. We are building a fleet of space cameras to monitor such space debris. Together with our software suite we build an accurate catalogue of space objects automate satellite operations for our customers and ultimately keep our orbits clean and safe. We are a young and international team of aerospace engineers and software developers backed by some of the top investors and venture capitalists in Germany.

Our offices are located very centrally in Munich (Bonner Platz). Amongst others you can expect a great (very international) team atmosphere highly qualified colleagues flexible working hours remote/hybrid work and a very exciting company vision.
