One of our clients in Germany is looking a Software Development Engineer working in the frame of the MTG Meteosat Third Generation program, the nextgeneration European operational geostationary meteorological satellite system. This is a collaborative EUMETSATESA program a software simulator PDG for generating the measurement and auxiliary data from each major MTG instrument shall be established. The Payload Data Generator PDG is intended to support the EUMETSAT Ground Segment EUM GS development in particular the verification and validation of the Instrument Data Processing Facility IDPF. Beyond that further Software development activities are planned regarding MTG subsystem simulation and ground segment data processing of the postEPS ground segment. Task Descriptions Responsible for the Software Development of Payload Data Generator PDG. In particular you will be in charge of the analysis, coding and testing of algorithms described in textual form, andor by equations and with parameter data lists. Mainly simulating the impact of the overall MTG data acquisition chain encompassing the geometric, radiometric and spectral deformations, but also a few other types of processing like spatial resamplingremapping and data fusion functions which aim at adapting the sampling and map projection of external data to be prepared for the MTG instrument data generation. Integration, Verification, Validation and Qualification of the PDG. Documentation Detailed Design, Test ProceduresReports, User Manual. Being able to use the Payload Data Generator PDG, e.g. for user support and training. Planning, preparation and conduction of the SW development for processing prototypes and operational processors for the postEPS ground software. Support to software development for MTG subsystem simulation. Required Profile Degree in aerospace engineering, space technology, electronic engineering, physics, computer sciences or comparable qualification. Approx. two or more years of experience in the domain. Knowledge of principles of typical Earth Observation instruments and spacecraft. Good image data processing skills. Good level of software development experience with the C and Python languages. Good knowledge of mathematics to be able to understand algorithms advantageous. Excellent conceptual analytical skills. Fluent written and spoken English.
