About us SCISYS Deutschland GmbH provides professional engineering and consultancy services supporting space programmes and missions. We have a strong presence at ESOC and EUMETSAT, as well as serving all ESA sites and spacecraft primes. Our team is composed of university graduates and experienced professionals, comprising some of the most knowledgeable, dedicated and talented engineers across Europe. Our services cover the whole life cycle of space programmes from early concepts to operations. Our Space Division provides a dynamic, supportive and friendly atmosphere in which you are encouraged to lead with initiative. We support new ideas from our colleagues and are focused on innovation. Moreover, we actively manage your professional development, training and career progression. We are looking for a Data Processing Systems Applications Engineer mfd to work at EUMETSAT in Darmstadt, Germany. Tasks The System Engineering and Projects Division SEP is in charge of the maintenance and engineering of the ground based satellite infrastructure of the operational systems and to provide engineering expertise for the preparation of new missions. Within the SEP Division, the Data Processing Systems and Applications Competence Area DPSA CA is responsible for the Engineering and Maintenance of online and offline operational Data Processing Systems. This position is for the provision of consultancy support to assist in the engineering activities of the data processing systems and application software for the operational and future programmes within the DPSA CA, including Processing Frameworks. It should be noted that the scientificalgorithm software part of the Data Processing Applications is outside the scope of the DPSA CA responsibility. The areas of work in the scope of the DPSA CA activities are the following Creation and maintenance of Data Processing SystemsApplications Requirements full lifecycle for Online Data Acceptance, Product Generation, Encoding and Delivery and Offline Analysis and Reporting systems, and including their Reprocessing equivalents as used for Climate Record generation Support activities performed in the scope of industrial contracts for the development or maintenance of Data Processing Systems and Applications Data Processing SystemsApplications interfaces engineering Generation of prototypes and development plans and where relevant their implementation Verification and Validation Generation, maintenance and evolution of Data Processing SystemsApplications Maintenance Plans Support in the consolidation and evolution of processes, standards, methodologies, tools, elements, and facilities for data processing of science data for operational and future programmes Implementation of Data Processing SystemsApplications level maintenance activities Provision of relevant inputs in area of responsibility to the midterm evolution planning of operational systems and their associated implementation. Support to projects related to Climate Data Record generation Automated Software Testing The Key Persons duties will include a range of tasks, from the support of the day to day operations and maintenance, to the handling of anomalies, upgrades and configuration changes for these facilities. Tasks will also contain the settingup and implementation of maintenance policies and procedures. For procurements and maintenance services provided externally, the Key Person shall provide support to the management of the technical interface with the external contractors. Besides the above described routine tasks, the Key Persons will also be expected to contribute to requirements specification, design and system engineeringreengineering, development and testing activities in the field of science data processing that will become necessary for existing and future production systems. In support to operations, the Key Persons may also be required to provide on call support during special activities for limited periods of time e.g. short periods during spacecraft commissioninglaunch phases as part of a team of maintenance engineers. Specific Tasks Include Maintenance and development of the Data Processing SystemsApplication Software it should be noted that for many of the facilities the first line maintenance is being performed by EUMETSAT in conjunction with the industrial contractor the second line maintenance is being performed by the industrial contractor under supervision and with support from EUMETSAT Support to procurement activities for maintenance and evolution activities, such as specification and maintenance of requirements for new or enhanced Data Processing SystemsApplications Software components that are going to be implemented by external contractors monitor their detailed design and implementation generate the test plans, test specificationprocedures, perform the acceptance of the externally developed components, support the integration testing in the ground segment and the operational validation Contribute to the definition and design of architectures of data processing ground segments and their components, their interfaces, and the validation and verification methods Coordinationinputs to planning and preparation of releases Coordination with other EUMETSAT Teams andor contractor to prepare introduction of newupgraded components Generation and maintenance of technical baseline documentation Support the operations of existing data processing ground segments Participation in technical meetings and formal reviews Analysis of the maintenance requirements and identification, procurement or implementation of the tools required to fulfil them Settingup and implementation of maintenance policies and procedures Perform routine tasks in operational systems under configuration control such as Anomaly investigations, documentation and classification Participation in relevant Anomaly Review Boards Follow up of the delivery of SW resolutions for these anomalies Support to Configuration Management change control practices Support to building and distribution of application software releases and patches Verification of correct facility installation for the assigned facilities Support to the development, integration and configuration management of software developed by third parties, its installation, and configuration and testing Perform SW testing in a structured approach to verify that delivered SW is fulfilling the requirements or to demonstrate that problems have been corrected Essential requirements The Key Persons should possess very good communication, presentation and team working skills and be able to cope with very high workloads. Moreover they should possess the following mandatory attitudes and attributes relevant for the development of their tasks Ability to learn and develop new skills and knowledge.
