RHEA is currently recruiting a Ground Segment System Engineer to work on design activities at Ground Segment system level and evolutions of operational MultiMission Elements. The position will be based at our clients premises in Darmstadt, Germany. Tasks and Activities You role will be to carry out activities related to Phase B Architectural and Preliminary Design of the JasonCS Programme in the area of ground segment engineering and architecture, and Phase CD Detailed design and Development of the designs and developments of MultiMission components. The ground segments consist of TTC and payload acquisition ground stations, mission management and control systems, data processing for products generation and archiving facilities, data dissemination facilities and the associated network fabric elements supporting data distribution and circulation. You will perform typical system engineering activities such as Requirements engineering, which consists in functional and performance analysis for justification and validation, requirement allocation, and refinement and maintenance of the requirements baseline Design, conceptual build and configuration which results in a physical architecture, described by its complete functional, physical and software characteristics System analysis, which is performed for the purpose of resolving requirements conflicts, decomposing and allocating requirements, assessing system effectiveness Performance of trade studies for assessing effectiveness, risk, cost and planning Planning for integration and verification, which final objective is to demonstrate that the deliverables conform to the specified requirements. In particular activities related to Phase B shall include Support the generation, refinement, management and maintenance of the GS system requirements in its Ground Segment Requirements Document, including analysis of the system level requirements and design, requirements tracing and justification Support the refinement and maintenance of the ground segment functional model Support the definition of the Ground Segment architecture addressing the overall design of the ground segment system and its physical elements, including the GS deployment view, and generation of the associated architectural design documentation Perform analyses architectural tradeoffs, technical budgets, design to cost and risk analyses to ensure completeness and coherence of the design for all aspects related to system engineering, and contribute to the GS design justification and GS Technical Budgets documents Support to the decomposition of the GS System into procurement elements including allocation of requirements and functions from GS system level, and contribution to the element level requirements, especially requirements common to all elements Support the identification and definition of GS external interfaces, and internal interfaces between the different GS elements, and their documentation in ICDs Support the generation of IVV related concepts and documents, including integration and verification plans and preliminary verification control documents. In particular activities related to Phase CD shall include Support the completion of the detailed design of multimission components , including analyses architectural tradeoffs, system technical budgets, risk analyses to ensure completeness and coherence of the design for all aspects related to system engineering Support the management and maintenance of the requirements baseline and MME Service Definition, including for changes, deviations and waivers and evaluation of impact on element baselines Support to MME component level activities, especially review of components designs, ensuring coherency and consistency between the elements supporting the services Support to finalisation and subsequent maintenance of the MME interfaces with the components of the ground segments architecture Support to studies internal or external and the evaluation of their results, and related engineering proposals for the ground segment detailed design Support to the performance of elements design for internally developed elements Support to preparation of the ground segment system and constituent parts assembly, integration and verification detailed planning. Skills and Experience The following skills and experience are mandatory University degree or equivalent in engineering or science At least 5 years of demonstrated experience in Ground Segment Engineering and design activities at Ground Segment system level Extensive experience in the specification, design including functional analysis and modelling, implementation, integration, and verification of large and complex Earth Observation ground segments Experience in the preparation of ground segment requirements and design documentation Experience in system engineering practices and processes, especially in the field of space systems engineering, including knowledge of ECSS standards and system life cycle processes Detailed knowledge of at least 3 of the following and a good overview of the other Near RealTime Data Processing chains, Ground segment endtoend monitoring system Data Archive and Retrievals, Data Distribution. Fluent in English The following skills and experience would be highly desirable Experience in Networking and Communications and Ground Stations subsystems Experience in management and traceability of complex requirements structure experience with DOORS administration Experience in the use of modelling and design tools in support of architectural design activities e.g. CORE, Enterprise Architect Experience in Model Based System engineering techniques and tools How to Apply Looking to take your career to the next level?
