The EUMETSAT Technical Scientific Support Department TSS provides support to the operation of the satellite systems and to the development of the future satellite programs described above. The focus of routine operations at EUMETSAT is the provision, by effective utilization of all elements of the space and ground systems, of timely and reliable operational services to the users. The System Engineering and Projects Division SEP within TSS is in charge of the maintenance and engineering of the groundbased satellite infrastructure of the operational systems and the provision of engineering expertise for the preparation of the new missions. Within the SEP Division, the Data Processing Systems and Applications Competence Area DPSA CA is responsible for the engineering and maintenance of online and offline operational Data Processing Systems. Your future duties and responsibilities The areas of work in the scope of the DPSA CA activities are the following Creation and maintenance of Data Processing SystemsApplications Requirements full lifecycle for Online Data Acceptance, Product Generation, Encoding and Delivery and Offline Analysis and Reporting systems, and including their Reprocessing equivalents as used for Climate Record generation Development or maintenance of Data Processing Systems and Applications Data Processing SystemsApplications interfaces engineering Generation of prototypes and development plans and where relevant their implementation Verification and Validation Generation, maintenance and evolution of Data Processing SystemsApplications Maintenance Plans Consolidation and evolution of processes, standards, methodologies, tools, elements, and facilities for data processing of science data for operational and future programmes Implementation of Data Processing SystemsApplications level maintenance activities Provision of relevant inputs in area of responsibility to the midterm evolution planning of operational systems and their associated implementation. Climate Data Record generation projects Automated Software Testing The tasks shall include day to day operations and maintenance, to the handling of anomalies, upgrades and configuration changes for these facilities. Tasks will also contain the settingup and implementation of maintenance policies and procedures. Provide support to the management of the technical interface for procurements and maintenance services. Besides the above described routine tasks it is expected to contribute to requirements specification, design and system engineeringreengineering, development and testing activities in the field of science data processing that will become necessary for existing and future production systems.
