VALUES
Built on European Values. Operated with Responsibility.
ATMOS was founded as a European company, built on the principles of freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law, and respect for human rights.
We develop space logistics and return capabilities as critical infrastructure of modern societies. We do so with a clear sense of responsibility. Access to orbit and controlled return are powerful capabilities. They must be operated within transparent legal frameworks, in alignment with European and international law, and with partners committed to peaceful, lawful, and responsible use.
Our role is to provide secure access to space, enabling public and private actors to operate with autonomy and accountability, and in respect of the values that serve open and democratic societies.
Jobs & Career
Building Europe’s Space Operations Team
ATMOS brings together engineers, operators, and specialists from all over the world. Our team is multinational and diverse, with offices in Lichtenau and Strasbourg. We work in a collegial, hands-on culture where people support each other, take ownership, and keep learning every day. Building spacecraft requires commitment, and a shared sense of mission beyond fixed roles or hours. We align the mission, the team, and the individual in mutual dependence. This principle shapes our work environment where exceptional people, as committed as they are competent, can grow and contribute to a mission that matters.
