What Our Team Says

“When I joined Myriota after university I was off to a running start on the next satellite program where I was able to learn and experience a lot in just a small amount of time. I’ve enjoyed working with and learning from such a capable team and I’m proud of the achievement of having satellite parts I’ve designed currently operating in space.”
