2018-05-01 13:24:33| Space-careers.com Jobs RSS
Specific tasks The scope of this SERVICE position is the provision of endtoend simulations support to EOPMP for Mission and System Studies, which mainly consists of the following Service Requirements. Task 1 EndtoEnd Simulations for future EO missions The scope of this task is to provide support in the definition, development and exploitation of endtoend simulators for future EO missions, aiming at a coherent and representative modelling of each element of the system satellite, payload, ground processing contributing to the endtoend mission performance, and maximising the synergies and reuse of building blocks from one simulator to the next. Support the definition and development of the EndtoEnd E2E Mission Performance Simulators for future EO missions, including elaboration of SOW and technical specifications, participation to progress meetings and reviews. Contributing to ensure the technical coherency and completeness of the simulation of the observation system, including, as needed, functional analysis, system level budgeting, system performance analyses, modelling of spacecraft andor payload subsystems and related data processing to meet system and mission requirements. Install and use those E2E simulators on the EOPSF IT infrastructure for mission performance evaluation and system tradeoffs for future EO missions. Provide feedback from endtoend mission performance simulations and optimisations to the spacecraft and mission design. Ensure a consistent evolution and maintenance of the E2E simulators and a proper configuration and storage of the relevant inputoutput data sets. Initiate and support work in the area of modelling of system or subsystem aspects spacecraft, payload, ground processing for E2E simulators and System Engineering Tools. Support the development of generic building blocks and modules, and aim at maximum synergy and reuse of those building blocks and modules from one E2E simulator to the next making use of ESA OpenSF infrastructure. Task 2 System Engineering Tools for future EO missions Service support in the definition, development and exploitation of System Engineering Tools for future EO missions, including the below, shall be provided Participate to the development of new System Engineering Tools for preliminary analysis and sizing of future EO missions, ensuring a coherent and representative modelling of each element of the system satelliteplatform and its subsystems, payload, ground processing contributing to the system performance. Participate to the evolution and maintenance of the existing System Engineering Tools used in EOPSF. Use the above System Engineering Tools for system tradeoffs, preliminary sizing and performance evaluation of future EO missions. Provide feedback from mission optimisation to the spacecraft and mission design Requirements The profile for the personnel to provide services considered in this SoW is a researchanddevelopment oriented engineer with the following skills University degree MSc. in a relevant Engineering discipline. General knowledge of ESA Earth Observation missions. Background in space system engineering. Experience in mission analysis. Good communication and technical writing skills. Good organisation skills. Capability to coordinate a large amount of inputs, synthesise, summarise and take conclusions. A proactive approach, with initiative and capability to work independently. Problemsolving oriented attitude. Solid background on IT and computer programming. MATLAB, Python, STK, MS Excel and CAD software knowledge is an asset. Experience on modelling and simulation of observing system characteristics spacecraft, payload, ground processing, orbit and how they impact mission data quality and relate to system requirements and scientific goals is desirable. Versatility to adapt to the specificities of each mission considering the wide range of possible EO observation techniques e.g. opticalmicrowave, passiveactive, imagersounder, nadirlimb observation and platforms e.g. minimicronanosatellite, orbits SunSynchronous or drifting, LEOMEOGEOHEO. Experience with system performance simulation is an asset. Knowledge on optimisation techniques is an asset Proficient in the English language spoken and written.
