Spacecraft Operations Analyst Copernicus Sentinel1, Sentinel2 mf Ref.Nr. 158548.2 The Mission The Sentinel1 and Sentinel2 missions are part of Europes Copernicus Earth observation space program. The first in the series, Sentinel1, carries an advanced radar instrument to provide an allweather, dayandnight supply of imagery of Earths surface. The first of two spacecraft was launched in 2014. The second, Sentinel2, is a polarorbiting, multispectral highresolution imaging mission for land monitoring to provide, for example, imagery of vegetation, soil and water cover, inland waterways and coastal areas. Sentinel2 will also deliver information for emergency services. Sentine1 and Sentinel2 spacecraft will be operated from ESOC, in Darmstadt, Germany. The Challenge We are looking for a qualified Spacecraft Operations Analysts SOE to be part of the flight control teams supporting Sentinel1 and Sentinel2 spacecraft operations engineering services. The tasks to be performed are those typical for a spacecraft operations analyst, with specific responsibilities for Support to the Sentinels missions as a member of the Flight Control Teams FCT during the operational phases, including special operations i.e. LEOP, Commissioning, deorbiting. Participation to testing campaigns SVT, inflight tests of the above mentioned missions. Implementation and maintenance of tools needed to manipulate the SCOS2000 Missions Control System databases, to create synthetic parameters and to support the data analysis tasks, as required e.g. MSEXCEL, MSACCESS, Visual Basic, SCOS2000 Operational Language Maintenance of spacecraft operational databases, related tools, procedures and documentation under strict configuration control. Organisation, training and operational readiness check of the spacecraft controllers assigned to the mission, in cooperation with the other Sentinels Analysts. Collection of information data regarding the performance of the mission and provision of inputs for mission reports. Provision of spacecraft control support in case of special operations where the Spacecraft Controller assigned to the mission is not in a position to cover the needs this task is expected to be necessary for only very limited periods of time Support the generation of operational reports based on inputs received from other FCT members Telemetry data consolidation and archiving Support the FCT in the configuration, setup and operation of the Sentinels NDIU CORTEX and Lite.
