Aufgaben Tasks A team of 2 permanent and 2 shorterterm Spacecraft Controllers Spacons in addition to the current Lead Spacon will be required to support the GALILEO FOC LEOP Spacecraft Operations Manager SOM as members of the Flight Control Team FCT during the LEOP preparation and execution phases. The SPACON team will include 1 permanent Spacon to cover launches L3 through L8 from April 2013 to January 2015 1 permanent Spacon to cover launches L3 through L8 from July 2013 to January 2015 2 Spacons required for 4 months for launch L3 from July 2013 to October 2013 2 Spacons required for 4 months for launch L5 from January 2014 to April 2014 The start date and duration for each Spacon position are based on the current global GALILEO FOC schedule. Since the project schedule is still dynamic, start dates may be subject to future changes except the 2April2013 one, which is hereby confirmed and fixed. It is assumed that shortterm Spacons will be available to cover the 4month time slots in a flexible way, such that changes in the launch schedule can be handled in a timely manner.

In case of ground or space segment anomaly providing first level contingency recovery support In order to discharge these responsibilities the Contractor is required to become familiar with the mission and the control facilities at his or her disposal. The 6 GALILEO LEOPs are planned to be conducted from ESOC and CNES, with a LEOP every 3 months current baseline. To be noted that dates and Control Centre CC selection for each LEOP summarised in the table below are derived from the current baseline. As the project schedule is still dynamic, changes in the launch calendar or rotation of the CCs ESOCCNES are not excluded. L3 ESOC, Sep2013 L4 CNES, Dec2013 L5 ESOC, Mar2014 L6 CNES, Jun2014 L7 CNES, Sep2014 L8 ESOC, Jan2015 The position holders will be required to support SCTCSVT, Simulations Campaign and LEOP activities conducted from any of the two CCs. This will imply short term normally no more than a week but repeated colocation periods when SCTCs, simulations and LEOPs will be conducted from CNES Toulouse, France. Essential requirements For the accomplishment of the listed tasks, knowledge of the following is mandatory A good knowledge of SCOS2000 and ESOC Ground Segment Operations Desirable skills Experienceknowledge of the following would be a distinct advantage LEOP experience Other information Fluency in English, both spoken and written, is required The nominal duration of the LEOP according to the present baseline is 6 days, with 8 hour shifts Must be an EU national or possess a valid German Work Residence Permit Planned start dates are between April 2013 and January 2014 To guarantee that your application is processed, please apply via our website httpwww.scisys.dewhereweworkspacecareersspacejobs.html
