Thales Alenia Space Jobs in 2025: Your Complete UK Guide to Building Europe’s Next‑Generation Satellites & Lunar Gateways

From pressurised modules orbiting the Moon to broadband mega‑constellations 1,200 km above Earth, Thales Alenia Space (TAS) sits at the heart of Europe’s space ambitions. A joint venture between Thales (67 %) and Leonardo (33 %), TAS employs more than 8,500 people across 17 sites—with growing hubs in Bristol and the Harwell Space Cluster. The firm is lead contractor for Europe’s IRIS² secure‑connect constellation (green‑lit in 2024) and supplies modules for NASA/ESA’s Lunar Gateway. Unsurprisingly, TAS has ramped up hiring: a quick scan of the Thales Alenia Space careers portal shows vacancies in systems engineering, RF payloads, AIT and mission operations. Whether you are a UK graduate dreaming of building communications payloads, a thermal engineer keen to keep lunar habitats at room temperature, or a programme manager itching to deliver the next Copernicus Earth‑observation satellite, this guide explains how to land a Thales Alenia Space job in 2025.

Which Programming Languages Should You Learn for a Career in Space Technology

From satellite constellations delivering broadband internet to Mars rovers and deep-space probes, the space sector is one of the most ambitious and technically challenging industries you can work in. Careers in space technology often blend aerospace engineering, embedded software, scientific computing, and mission-critical systems, each requiring a specific set of programming and engineering skills. If you’re browsing opportunities on www.ukspacejobs.co.uk, a natural question arises: Which programming language(s) should you learn to thrive in the space domain? The answer depends on your chosen speciality. Spacecraft flight software might prioritise C/C++ for reliability and performance, while ground stations and data pipelines may use Python for automation or MATLAB for signal processing. In advanced research environments, Fortran still persists for numerical simulations, whereas Rust is emerging for secure, robust embedded applications. In this guide, we’ll examine: Key programming languages vital for space tech. The pros, cons, and typical use cases of each. A hands-on project idea to help you build relevant aerospace experience.
