Sadly the South African National Space Agency isn’t looking for astronauts to join its corps, but it is hiring at the moment and looking for specialist engineers, software developers and an executive director. I figure there’s probably enough of our readers here interested to make it worthwhile mentioning.
SANSA is doing some really interesting stuff at the moment, especially around stepping up its work in satellite tracking and communications technology. These are good days for South African science.
The four jobs on offer are:
- Executive Director: Space Programme (Pretoria) – 5 Year Contract
- Space Industry Development Specialist (Pretoria) – 1 Year Contract
- Software Developer (Contract)
- Engineer (2 year contract in Hermanus)
