6 Months Solar Orbiter Test Engineer
2017-11-14 17:11:39| Space-careers.com Jobs RSS
Aurora is an established supplier of skilled manpower to ESA and in particular at ESTEC and ESAC. Aurora has the opportunity to expand our support within the Science and Robotic Exploration Directorate DSRE. Aurora currently has a team of 30 engineers and scientists at ESAC. This position is to cover our engineer who shall be on maternity leave. Overview The work is to provide a number of specialised services to support ESA in developing the Solar Orbiter missions Science Operations Centre SOC at ESAC. This covers software design, definition, implementation and maintenance service support to Solar Orbiter Science Ground Segment SGS development, operations and maintenance at ESAC, including the science operations planning system, the lowlatency data generation and visualization system, the auxiliary data products generation system and also supports the archiving of science data products. Solar Orbiter is the first of the medium size missions in the ESAs Cosmic Vision Science Programme, developed in collaboration with NASA. It is a solar observatory carrying 10 instruments provided by Principal Investigators 6 remote sensing instruments an EUV telescope, a polarimetric telescope, an Xray telescope, a coronagraph, an heliospheric imager, and a spectrometer and 4 insitu instruments magnetometer, radio and plasma waves, energetic particle detector and a solar wind analyser. The primary goal of the mission is to operate the whole payload in a coordinated way to address some of the outstanding scientific questions on the relationship between the Sun and the heliosphere. The spacecraft is expected to be launched in October 2018, and after a 3 month commissioning phase it will cruise for 3.5 years until the proper orbital geometry is achieved. The nominal mission is expected to last 3.5 years more with a post operations phase of 2 additional years. The Solar Orbiter SOC at ESAC is responsible for the development of the SGS following the Science Implementation Requirements provided by the Project Scientist which covers all the operational activities originating from the mission science objectives defined by the Science Working Team SWT, including interactions with the Instrument Teams and the Mission Operations Centre MOC at ESOC. Operational activities for Solar Orbiter cover coordination of science operations for the cruise and nominal phases of the mission, generation of specific quick turnaround low latency data products, production of auxiliary data to support operations, as well as the archiving of Principal Investigator PI provided science data products. Interaction is expected with the members of the Solar Orbiter Science Operations Working Group SOWG and with software engineers in the PI teams. Frequent interactions are expected to take place with the SOC manager, the SOC team members and within the team working on Solar Orbiter. Also, frequent interactions are expected to take place with the Computers Support Group CSG and the Science Archives Team SAT at ESAC. Interactions with the general international community of astronomersusers are also expected via workshops and the helpdesk. The job is intended to provide a number of specialised services to support ESA in developing science operations systems and tools, including System engineering and architectural design activities, including operating plans and procedures, Designing, developing, implementing, testing, deploying, operating and maintaining software tools and systems, e.g. Observation proposal handling, mission planning and quicklook systems, parts of which may be distributed to the community User support tools Interactive analysis and calibration systems, to be distributed as needed to the community for data reduction and analysis Data processing pipelines Scientific data archives and interfacing these to the Virtual Observatory VO. Scientific and technical WWW systems to support the SOC, SGS and the scientific community Contribute to the definition of Interface Control Documents ICDs and file interchange formats with external coordination units Organise and perform end to end system testing with the scientific communities Contribute to the maintenance of the overall system, including configuration control and versioning Specific Service Tasks As part of the service the following main activities will have to be carried out Contribute to procedure writing and the implementation of those procedures. Follow procedures and operate Solar Orbiter SOC systems. Test SOC systems for the daily processing of Solar Orbiter data. Test SOC systems for the generation of Solar Orbiter payload operations requests. Further test and scale SOC products such as MDB. Participate in the optimisation of software processing. Gather operational constraints for software running at SOC. Interact appropriately with and support the providers of all software SOC systems. Interact appropriately with the users of Solar Orbiter data products. Assist in automation of SOC procedures. Contribute to the maintenance of the overall system, including configuration control and versioning. Provide support for testing, particularly for EndtoEnd E2E and operational rehearsal campaigns. Report on operational activities including the gathering and presentation of processing summary statistics. Specific qualification requirements At least a graduate degree Masters or Ph.D in a relevant subject area. Relevant professional experience of at 3 years. In particular, experience is preferred in Past scientific solar or heliospheric instrumentation or spacecraft support with a major international space or groundbased observatory. Support to the professional solar and heliospheric scientific community for a spacebased mission. Use of spacebased scientific data in support of science research.
