We are looking for a Modelling and Simulation Engineer E3 to join our Ajilon Technology Aerospace team, working onsite at the European Space Agency in the Netherlands. Ajilon Technology Aerospace is a specialized Engineering consultancy with more than 30 years experience providing aerospace Engineers to our key partners in The Netherlands. Ajilon is a longstanding business partner of the European Space Agency ESA, with more than 110 employees recruited from across Europe currently supporting ESAs activities. Specific tasks to be performed The postholder will provide support to the section activities in the areas of system and architecture modeling. In addition, support to the development, verification and acceptance of SW infrastructure to support modeling as well as simulation. The activities will be in the area of System modeling in support of requirements engineering, system architecting and system verification. System modeling in support of information traceability and management, in particular linked to system software development. Tools and infrastructure maintenance to support system modeling and mission performance simulation. Endtoend performance simulators for space missions, in terms of the related simulator development software, processor development for data products and formalisation of corresponding simulator architectures. General tasks to be performed Following the complete software lifecycle for the project, encompassing users requirement, specification, implementation, documentation, testing, deployment of new SW release and the SW maintenance process. Providing support in simulation tools and models used for the project including its 3D visualisation texture, model..., real time simulator with HW in the loop, models used for simulation. Managing communication interfaces between the different project elements, both for flight and ground segments. Managing the porting of the flight SW to new HW platform. Managing porting of ground segment SW to new HW platform in case of HW obsolescence. To successfully perform the above mentioned tasks, the following background experience is required MSc or PhD in Physics, Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Computer Science or equivalent. The candidate shall have practical experience of system modeling and mission performance simulators. Experience in system modeling, using SysML or comparable modelling languages. Experience in system architecting using architectural frameworks. Experience in system requirements and verification engineering. Experience of simulator development, functional and performance, at software level. Good knowledge of related methods and tools. An ability to work independently and to establish good working relations is essential. Good knowledge of software engineering and configuration control methods, tools and standards ECSS is essential, in particular for embedded systems and their associated testing and verification.
