We are looking for a Thermal System Engineer Thermal Control 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 Support the development of advanced thermal analysis methods tools, e.g. general improvements related to algorithms, finite element based methods, data management and numerical analysis. Support the execution of advanced analyses, using standard thermal software, and development of relevant inhouse software utilities. Support the evaluation and validation of development activities related to thermal software tools. Support the execution of multidisciplinary analyses e.g. thermoelastic and general interface between structural and thermal models. Support the exchange and transfer of models between different thermal analysis tools, including the development, maintenance and verificationvalidation of data exchange software tools. Support the development of guidelines for the management of software and thermal models. Make regular progress reports. Provide adequate documentation, covering all tasks above. General tasks to be performed Provide support to the Agency in the thermal engineering design, analysis and verification area related to the sections thermal control activities. Provide support to ESA projects, including CDF activities, interface with the project team, interface if requested with the industrial team, participate in progress meetings and reviews, as requested by project work, and provide appropriate feedback on the achieved progress and discussions. Support the thermal control activities project support and RD activities of the Section in the area of hisher specialization. Build geometrical and thermal models, perform relevant analyses, evaluate critically the results and issue relevant documentation covering all work performed. Support the maintenance and upgrading of thermal mathematical models. Support thermal verification test campaigns for ongoing ESA projects by performingreviewing test procedures, test predictions and test correlations and attend the tests if required. Support ESA project reviews. Support European standardization activities To successfully perform the above mentioned tasks, the following background experience is required Master degree in relevant discipline Thermal Engineering or equivalent. Background in analysis methods, numerical analysis, data management and a general knowledge of space thermal engineering. Very good knowledge of the analysis tools ESATANTMS and some knowledge of other CAE tools such as IDEASTMG, Thermica. Experience in development of software products. Knowledge of the STEPTAS data exchange protocol and software libraries. The Contractor shall have a very good background and experience in thermal modelling and analysis as well as thermal spacecraft design and verification. Heshe shall also have a very good background and knowledge of spacecraft system aspects. Heshe shall also have a very good background and experience with the Agencys thermal analysis tools, e.g. ESATANTMS About ESAESTEC The European Space Agency ESA has sites in several European countries. The European Space Research and Technology Centre ESTEC is the largest site and the technical heart of ESA. This nursery of European space activities is located in Noordwijk, Netherlands. At ESTEC, about 2500 engineers, technicians and scientists work handson with mission design, spacecraft and space technology. Almost all ESA projects except launchers are managed from ESTEC. In Noordwijk, people work on science missions, manned space missions, Earth observation, telecommunications and navigation satellites. ESTEC provides extensive testing facilities to verify the proper operation of spacecraft, such as the Large Space Simulator LSS, acoustic and electromagnetic testing bays, multiaxis vibration tables and the ESA Propulsion Laboratory EPL.
