[24.02] Earth Observation

vor 3 Wochen

Darmstadt, Deutschland Advanced Computer Systems ACS-D GmbH Vollzeit
Job Description

We are looking for a Software Engineer with experience of remote sensing data processors to support the activities of a team based at one of our customers' site in Darmstadt (Germany)

The successful candidate will be part of a team responsible for the maintenance and evolution of the EUMETSAT Copernicus operational Instrument Processing Facilities (IPFs) software and associated documentation as well as support for the correction of IPFs anomalies.

The tasks to be performed may include:

  • familiarisation with the existing code and documentation including a detailed analysis of this code, including its architecture and functions, and proposing improvements w.r.t. its robustness, maintainability and performance;
     
  • maintenance of the essential s/w documentation to keep it aligned with the code;
     
  • software support including
    • correction of anomalies;
    • implementation of SW evolutions;
    • SW performance optimisation
    • SW delivery, integration and validation in the EUMETSAT operational ground segments;
    • generation of test data sets (TDS) for preparation of operational  deployment or reprocessing campaigns

Qualifications

The ideal candidate sports a combination of Software Engineering and Remote Sensing skills, ideally biased towards the SW side given that the activities are more focused on the evolutive maintenance of existing facilities and much less on the implementation of new algorithms and processors.

The programming skills needed are:

  • Programming languages: strong knowledge of C++, Python as nice-to-have
  • Experience of COTS / compiled libraries.
  • Strong experience in GitLab software management + CI testing.
  • Knowledge of SW compilers (cmake)
  • RPM building and docker
  • Experience of Netcdf4 / Hdf5 / CSV data visualisation (asset if remote sensing data) & automatization of tasks.
  • Software optimization and performance enhancement from prototype (interactive language, e.g. python) to operational processor (better performance, e.g. C/C++)

The generic skills needed are:

  • SW development in a scientific environment:
    Strong expert skills in software processor with knowledge / sensitivity to the scientific context (algorithm, vocabulary, accuracy testing). The ideal candidate is someone who can understand and finds his way to work in a scientific context.
     
  • Multi-task ability: Capability to support various activities (from multiple processing chains), including development, maintenance, evolution, validation and non-regression analysis;
     
  • Testing and verification: Highly rigorous and accurate in Software testing, non-regression analyses & performance assessment, and skill in debugging tools / environment
     
  • Proactivity: ability to suggest innovative and new ideas with capabilities to asses versus internal requirements (software & scientific).
     
  • Team work: High team spirit / working skills with capabilities towards common goals / consensus.
     
  • Communication: Efficient & regular concise communication to different audiences (SW experts, non-SW experts, as well as scientific experts). Technical report writing

The working language is English, therefore the capability of working effectively in that language, including the participation in technical meetings and/or boards and the production of technical documents and reports, is essential.

Knowledge of German or any other European language would be a plus.



Additional Information

The start date is within Q3.2024.

Given that the activities must be carried out for 60% of the time (on a weekly basis) at the Customer's site in Darmstadt, the successful candidate should be prepared to move to the Darmstadt area.

A relocation allowance will be provided to the successful candidate.
