You will work in a department which provides support to operations of existing satellite systems and to the development of new programmes. The position includes system engineering for major evolutions of the operational ground segment, the maintenance of related system level architectural design documents and Interface Control Documents as well as supporting ground segment Integration, Verification Validation IV V activities at the level of test plan definition, test specification and test coordination. Your responsibilities will initial cover the system and interfaces engineering activities in support to the routine operations of the existing MTP, MSG, EPS and Jason23 operational programmes. The duties will then gradually evolve to provide also support to the future programmes,such as Meteosat Third Generation MTG, EPS Second Generation EPS SG, Sentinels and others, in the area of ground segment system engineering and, in particular, interfaces definition. Responsibilities As a member of the Ground Segment System Engineering Team, you will contribute to maintain the overall system design documentation of the operational systems. When evolutions of the systems are proposed and implemented, you will analyze them and verify the system and interfaces coherence. Typical activities to be undertaken are Coordinate the maintenance, for all the operational ground systems, of a complete and consistent set of System Technical Documentation Perform technical analysis of system architecture and specification evolutions or major upgrades of the operational ground systems, for interfaces coherence and compatibility check with other ongoing developments Define the IVV testing approach for major evolutions of the operational ground systems and contribute to the coordination of the installation, integration and verification of new systems into the Operational infrastructure Contribute to the various OPS TSS Projects and associated reviews, as required, providing System Engineering support during the design phase and contribute actively to the definition of the IVV activities Perform analysis, investigations and resolution of system level anomalies Support the SEP System Engineer on all related activities as requested Support the OPS regular coordination processes, including CRBs and ARBs, as requested.
