Vitrociset Belgium, a Vitrociset Group company, can claim almost 30 years of experience in the field of space operations engineering activities, starting in 1982 with the European Space Agency. Today Vitrociset Belgium is the Corporate Groups center of gravity for the Space activities in central Europe. With the headquarter located in Belgium and permanent offices presence close to ESAs centers ESOC D, ESTEC NL and ESAC SP, the company offers you major opportunities at its many sites abroad, an international environment and assignment to prestigious clients ESA, ESO, CNES, EUMETSAT, ASTRIUM. Please send your application to Ms. Roxana Sasu at r.sasuvitrocisetbelgium.com Deadline 21.08.2017 Key Responsibilities The Control Software and Engineering Department CSE in the Directorate of Engineering DoE is responsible for the definition, design and implementation of complex control systems for advanced optical and infrared astronomical instrumentation and telescope systems required for ESOs Observatories in Chile. CSE is in particular responsible for the development and maintenance of detector control software for all ESO controllers including NGC. ESO is in the process of developing a new version of the NGC controller, an in house detector controller for optical and infrared scientific detectors, as well as for wavefront sensors. The control software for the new NGC controller will be implemented largely based on the current version but adapted to the new technologies and detectors selected for the ELT project. The software must be ready according to the plan defined for first generation ELT instruments. Working on site. The required deliverables consist of Develop and maintain the core software for the NGC controller 2.0 including but not limited to NGC software adaptation to ELT technologies such the implementation of user interfaces in Qt or the integration with CII. Support the redesign of the detector control software for optical detectors. Implementation of new hardware functions. Develop and maintain instrument specific functionalities for detector control for all ELT instruments and wavefront sensors technologies. Support the maintenance and development of the NGC core software and its extensions, e.g. porting to newer releases of the ELT software platform. Support instrument assembly, integration and test AIT activities in relation to optical and infrared detectors, e.g. configuration control and incremental SW deliveries for systems in production Develop and maintain detector control software for VLTVLTI instruments. Support NGCrelated instrument commissioning activities on site. Develop and maintain general instrument control software components for ESO projects. Requirements The ideal consultant is a software engineer with a minimum of 5 years experience in implementing real time software for embedded systems as well as higher level, object oriented distributed applications and messaging systems. Heshe will be able to take over the responsibility for parts of NGC detector control software and developmaintain it according to the requirements. The candidate must be familiar with LINUX and he she must have an excellent knowledge of CC and python. Essential skills include Minimum five years professional experience in software development, covering the full software life cycle analysis, design, implementation, testing and maintenance including documentation, preferred with CC and python. Experience in implementation of realtime data acquisition. Experience in working in software development teams. Experience in unit testing. Knowledge of software engineering practices like version control including the related tooling. Working in an international environment and excellent command of English language Desired skills include Practical experience in implementation of detector control software. Good command of C11 and generic programming techniques. Familiarity with LINUX PCI device drivers. Basic knowledge of optical and infrared scientific detectors. Experience developing user interfaces in Qt. Location ESO Headquarters in Garching near Munich, Germany. Duty trips to observatories in Chile might be necessary Assignment Support to the Control Software and Engineering Department CSE in Directorate of Engineering DoE Start Date 1 January 2018 Please be advised that by submitting your CV or other content to us, you agree to the administration, processing and storage of any personal data for the purposes of recruitment processes.
