JOB DESCRIPTION EUMETSAT and NOAA established the Initial Joint Polar System IJPS in 1998 which was complemented in 2003 by a Joint Transition Activities JTA Agreement. These agreements address the cooperation on the NOAA 1819 afternoon orbit satellites and access to Suomi NPPNPOESS now JPSSDWSS satellite data on the US side and the 3 Metop satellites on the European side. The agreements also required NOAA and EUMETSAT to work together on a longterm basis to define a joint polar system based on common user requirements and agreed upon technical concepts and implementation responsibilities. Work is underway with NOAA to define the Joint Polar System JPS and negotiations of the JPS agreement were started taking into account the recent evolutions on the JPSS Joint Polar Satellite System and DWSS Defence Weather Satellite System Programmes. In this concept of cooperation, EUMETSAT and NOAA respectively have the endtoend responsibility of the midmorning and afternoon orbits, respectively. The EPSSG is defined as the European component of the future JPS in continuity to EPS, In its current plans, the EPSSG will be based on a twosatellites configuration with respectively a launch readiness by the end of 2020 for the first satellite MetopSG A and by 2022 for the second satellite MetopSG B. Recurrent Metop SG A and B satellites will be provided and launched in order to achieve a minimum of 21 years of operations. Regarding the Space Segment, EUMETSAT will rely on cooperation with ESA for the development of the satellite and of a subset of the instruments. EUMETSAT will cooperate with other Partners for the acquisition of the other instruments including the METimage DLR, IASING CNES and ARGOS CNES. Regarding the Ground Segment, EUMETSAT will develop and procure its Ground Segment capitalising on existing Multi Mission Elements that are already in operation in the Headquarters as well as on the Satellite Application Facilities SAF Network, taking into account the lessons learnt from previous programmes. EPSSG will be the second generation of EUMETSATs polar system and as such will have a strong heritage from the existing EPS with its Metop satellites and operations, and from other elements of the EUMETSAT infrastructure in support of current programmes. Responsibilities Duties Tasks As a member of the Ground Segment GS team, the Key person shall provide support to the EPSSG GS requirements analysis, architecture design and requirement implementation of the GS networks system as part of the EPSSG System.
