Valispace

Iteration is open!

What a great first day so far. Already we’ve had speakers talk about reusable rockets, hypersonic airplanes and the largest habitable volume for space !

Right now we’re in the middle of a panel discussion on how to structure hardware teams.

Keep your eyes peeled for when we release the talks in full 👀

📢This month we welcome Renato Vieira to our team at Valispace!

Renato is a software engineer and he was working in the healthcare business, making it easier for people to get travel vaccinations and, when the pandemic hit, he was helping in the COVID-19 vaccination effort in Denmark. You're🆒 Renato!

He joined Valispace because ''𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑑𝑢𝑐𝑡 𝑠𝑒𝑒𝑚𝑠 𝑠𝑢𝑝𝑒𝑟 𝑒𝑥𝑐𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔, 𝑏𝑜𝑡ℎ 𝑖𝑛 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑐𝑒𝑟𝑛𝑠 𝑖𝑡𝑠 𝑚𝑎𝑟𝑘𝑒𝑡 𝑢𝑠𝑒𝑓𝑢𝑙𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑎𝑙𝑠𝑜 ℎ𝑜𝑤 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑖𝑡 𝑤𝑖𝑙𝑙 𝑏𝑒 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑖𝑛 𝑖𝑡''. But that's not all! When in the hiring process, he loved meeting the team and he just knew he'd be happy here. Renato, we promise we'll do our best to honor that 🥰

When he's not doing his back-end magic, he finds his happiness and energy hanging out with friends, listening to music or watching some motorsports - in fact, we might see him investing in karting one of these days 😏

Well Renato, we're so happy to have you around now to help us build Valispace and, one day, give us a free yoga class maybe? 😉

📢2 weeks ago we welcomed Guilherme Barreto to our team at Valispace !

After finishing his Masters degree in Computer Science and Engineering, Gui started straight on doing what he loves to do (and what we know he strives at 😜): Front-end development.

Aside from software engineering, Guilherme enjoys playing tennis and video games AND (we always save the best for last) spending time with his extremely cute dogs 🥰 𝘐𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘧 𝘤𝘶𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴, 𝘳𝘢𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴 🙋

He joined Valispace especially because of how thrilling it is to be building a system that allows teams to collaboratively work on their hardware projects, whilst having ''the possibility to learn about the current best practices and technologies''.

𝘉𝘰𝘯𝘶𝘴 𝘧𝘢𝘤𝘵: can you guess what is Gui's favorite food? Let us give you a hint: Garfield loves it too 🐱

Guilherme, we are so excited to have you on board and have more cute dog content at Valispace! Welcome to the team 🚀

There was one small step for man and one giant leap for Natalia at .

What kind of face would you make if you one day got to see our home 🌍 from this lunar vantage point?

For by engineers!💡

In Valispace we like to use our after-work time to be with the team and create unforgettable memories! Our last month’s team barbecue is an example of it - which also happened to be on company’s birthday 🥳
These kinds of moments are what help Valispace to grow and to be what it is today, here’s to many more BBQs and to many more birthdays🍻 😊

📢 Last month we welcomed another new addition to the Valispace team -

When she came to Portugal, after graduating, Natalia interned at Uniplaces as an International Sales Associate where she started to learn more about the magic of her communication skills 🪄

Is being a food-lover becoming a criteria at Valispace? Because we just found another and Natalia's favorite cuisine is Italian 🍝 As Julia Child said "𝑝𝑒𝑜𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑤ℎ𝑜 𝑙𝑜𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑒𝑎𝑡 𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑎𝑙𝑤𝑎𝑦𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑏𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑝𝑒𝑜𝑝𝑙𝑒" and we're sure that's true 😁

On becoming a Valispacer, Natalia says what excites her most is to dig deeper into the awesome innovative industries we work with and being able to help them through Valispace ''is a dream''. She also mentioned that another thing that has made her "fall in love with Valispace was for sure the people here" 🧡

Well, Natalia, you're certainly going to help others fall in love with Valispace too and we're so excited to welcome you to the team (and put those cooking skills to the test) 🚀

Valispace is constantly growing and we're always looking for new software engineers to continue to build our platform that allows innovative companies to develop complex products that seem like magic to us today.

Would you love to work closely to space, green technology and other futuristic industries in a place that is committed to diversity and representation?

Some say that female software engineers are one of the rarest elements in the universe.

We say that companies aren't looking hard enough.

Valispace is looking for clever and creative curators of code to help us bring forward a new age of space exploration.

It's one thing to make great software that revolutionizes the way engineers build the products that seem like magic to us today.

It's another thing to ensure that people of all genders (and everyone in between) help us create it.
