Engagement scope

Six focused ways to work together

Each engagement is scoped around the technical problem, available evidence, delivery constraints and the level of ownership required.

SRV / 01

Flight Software Architecture

Architecture definition for new programs, redesigns and systems moving from prototype to product.

Suitable for

  • New spacecraft programs
  • Architecture redesigns
  • Prototype-to-product transition
  • Real-time problems
  • Scaling constraints

Possible activities

  • Architecture definition
  • Component decomposition
  • Task/thread architecture
  • Scheduling
  • Communication architecture
  • FDIR architecture
  • Memory strategy
  • Platform interfaces
  • Architecture documentation

Possible outcomeArchitecture baseline and implementation roadmap.

SRV / 02 · Fixed scope · 1–3 weeks

Architecture Review

Independent assessment of an embedded or flight-software architecture, its constraints and its principal technical risks.

Review areas

  • Requirements
  • Software architecture
  • Real-time design
  • Interfaces
  • Hardware dependencies
  • Memory and resources
  • Verification
  • Engineering process
  • Technical debt

Outputs

  • Findings
  • Risks
  • Recommendations
  • Prioritized action plan

SRV / 03

Embedded Platform Development

Hands-on development of platform capabilities and the infrastructure required to integrate and verify them.

Technical scope

  • Embedded C/C++
  • RTOS
  • Embedded Linux
  • BSP and platform services
  • Device interfaces
  • FPGA interaction
  • Communications
  • Build systems
  • Test infrastructure

SRV / 04 · Typically 1–3 days/week

Fractional Principal / Technical Lead

Senior technical leadership for organizations that need architecture ownership and engineering guidance without immediately creating a permanent Principal or Lead position.

Possible scope

  • Architecture leadership
  • Technical reviews
  • Mentoring
  • Process definition
  • High-risk decisions
  • Hiring interviews
  • Cross-team alignment

This model can suit growing aerospace teams that need experienced technical ownership before a permanent senior role is established.

SRV / 05

Engineering Process

Practical development and verification processes shaped around the product, team and assurance context.

Process scope

  • Requirements workflows
  • Architecture modeling
  • Coding standards
  • Code reviews
  • Static analysis
  • Unit testing
  • Continuous integration
  • Release processes
  • Configuration management
  • Traceability

SRV / 06

Technology Partnerships

SPASAR is open to collaborative R&D and industrial partnerships around reusable spacecraft software technologies.

Collaboration areas

  • European R&D programs
  • Joint demonstrators
  • Avionics platform integration
  • Reusable software infrastructure
  • Development tooling

These are collaboration directions, not claims about an existing commercial product or funded program.
