Solenix is specialized in the provision of highquality software engineering, technical consulting and operations services in the aerospace domain. This vacancy note concerns an onsite consulting position at ESOC in Darmstadt, Germany. GNSS Engineering Support High Accuracy Services 1923049 Job Description We are looking for a GNSS Engineer to support the High Accuracy Services team at ESOC. The primary area of activity is GNSS Performance primarily related to operation of GNSS POD and UTC realisation. Navigation Operations Services, executed for several ESA and 3rd party customers in parallel, process data from a combination of a number of GNSS receiver networks, including the ESA network plus optionally subnetworks providing data by contractual agreement and publicly available data CDDIS. The data are processed in batch mode or in realtime, in ESOCs Navigation Facility. Service products typically include orbit products restitution and prediction and highrate clock solutions both for the ground and satellite clocks. Beside near real time products enhancedaccuracy offline or final products may be delivered, as well as additional or auxiliary products station coordinates, geophysical data e.g. Earth Rotation Parameters ERPs, satellite properties, etc.. The general activities to be supported are depending on the phase of the mission Navigation Operations Engineering service N avigation Experimental Operations Galileo Performance Analysis Galileo Constellation Analysis EGNOS Performance Analysis Navigation System Definition service Navigation Algorithms service POD engineering support and consultancy GNSS station engineering Range Integrity Monitoring Stations RIMS deployment Maintenance and upgrade of SW Ionospheric modelling You may be requested to assume the responsibility and perform activities for additional service, projects and activities within the scope of overall Navigation services. You will be primarily assigned to particular services within the Navigation Office but with the possibility of supporting other services andor projects.
