Engineers who build the infrastructure they needed
The Orbitvein team comes from the intersection of RF systems engineering and cloud infrastructure. We understand satellite operations from the inside because we operated satellites before building this platform.
Founding team
Three engineers with deep roots in the commercial space and antenna engineering industry — RF systems, distributed infrastructure, and antenna array design. The founding team origin is the intersection of operational satellite experience and the cloud infrastructure engineering discipline.
Vladimir Petrenko
CEO & Co-Founder
Five years as RF systems engineer at an Earth-observation startup, where Vladimir led a 14-month, $1.8M proprietary ground station project that became the founding motivation for Orbitvein. Deep background in satellite link budget analysis, antenna system integration, and ITU frequency coordination. Holds a Master's in Aerospace Engineering. Based in El Segundo, CA.
Anastasia Voronova
CTO & Co-Founder
Previously a distributed systems engineer at a European space agency ground network program, where Anastasia designed the scheduling and routing infrastructure for a multi-site ground network serving scientific satellite missions. Expertise in real-time scheduling algorithms, API design, and ground segment software architecture. Drives Orbitvein's technical roadmap and platform reliability.
Niels Brandt
Head of RF Engineering
Antenna array specialist from maritime satellite IoT, where Niels designed multi-band antenna systems for vessel-mounted satellite communication terminals. Expertise in S-band, X-band, and Ka-band antenna design, RF front-end integration, and phased array systems. Responsible for Orbitvein's station partnership technical vetting and RF performance standards. Based in El Segundo, CA.
We are hiring engineers who understand both domains
Orbitvein is an early-stage company building critical infrastructure for the NewSpace economy. If you have deep experience in RF systems, ground network operations, or cloud infrastructure for space applications, we want to talk.
