Remote Sensing Scientist – Optical Instrument Performance (m/f)
O poslu
We are currently looking for an experienced Remote Sensing Scientist to join our international team of inspiring engineers and industry professionals, tasked with driving innovation within the Space, Satellite and Earth Observation sector.
This role is routed in the mission of EUMETSAT and will provide the opportunity to work with leading IT, Space and Earth Observation organisations and domain experts to make a positive impact on society!
The Remote Sensing and Products (RSP) Division is tasked with providing the scientific expertise required to develop, implement, validate, maintain and evolve the operational observational products for all EUMETSAT satellites and agreed third party missions, as well as establishing the user requirements for future EUMETSAT satellite programmes. RSP offers the opportunity for top-level scientists to work in an unparalleled environment combining interdisciplinary collaboration and full end-to-end perspective of satellite missions. The activities encompass the space segment and ground segment development, integration, on-ground and in-orbit testing, monitoring during operations and support to end-users.
Within the Image Navigation, Registration, and Calibration (INRC) Competence Area of the Remote Sensing and Products Division (RSP), the Optical Instrument Performance Scientist will be responsible for, and contribute to, the scientific development, maintenance, validation and quality monitoring of METimage instrument level-1 products, in particular with respect to performance and calibration. METimage is the next generation multi-spectral (visible and IR) imaging passive radiometer from the EUMETSAT Polar System-Second Generation mission (EPS-SG).
What you’ll be doing:
· Acquire and maintain an in depth understanding of the instrument design, performances and calibration of the visible infrared imager mission (METimage) of the EPS-SG mission;
· Support the prototyping, operational implementation and maintenance of advanced algorithms for METimage Level-1 processing;
· Support industrial activities for operational processor development, as well as METimage instrument ground-calibration campaigns;
· Work closely with technical and scientific teams to support non-conformance analysis and performance assessments;
· Plan, develop and perform product calibration and validation activities, with respect to METimage in-orbit instrument performance and Level-1 products quality, including development of required tools and methods;
· Provide product quality analysis and long-term monitoring of METimage level-1 products, including development of required tools and methods;
· Take an active role including assessing requirements and sensor capabilities in the preparation and development of visible infrared imagers, imaging passive radiometers and imaging spectrometers for future missions (e.g. Sentinel-4, Sentinel-5, CO2M, Sentinel-3 NG optical, and in the preparation of the next generation instruments on EUMETSAT's future programmes);
· Excellent salary, of up to Euro 7,500 / month NET (after tax) based on skills and experience
· Flexible working time including additional flexi-leave
· Private medical coverage for employee and family
· Attractive final salary pension
· 30 days of annual leave + 14.5 days public holidays
· Training and development support
· Relocation allowance and support (if applicable)
O zaposleniku
An advanced university degree (or equivalent) in physics, remote sensing, optical instrument engineering or another relevant discipline is required.
Skills and Experience:
· In-depth scientific knowledge and hands-on experience of optical calibration algorithms in remote sensing applications;
· Familiarity with the on-ground and in-orbit performance estimation of imagers/radiometers in the visible and short-wave infrared region and/or thermal infrared;
· Experience of working in a UNIX environment and with scientifically-oriented coding languages such as Python;
· Experience of processing of large-volumes of data from relevant space borne instruments is an advantage;
· Experience with remote sensing products, scientific development projects and working with user communities and researchers is an advantage;
· Strengths in analysis, synthesis and presentation, coupled with excellent interpersonal skills and a proven ability to apply these to the interactions within a team and between teams.
