About us SCISYS Deutschland GmbH provides professional engineering and consultancy services supporting space programmes and missions. We have a strong presence at ESOC and EUMETSAT, as well as serving all ESA sites, ESO, Columbus Control Centre, the German Galileo Control Centre and spacecraft primes. Our team is composed of university graduates and experienced professionals, comprising some of the most knowledgeable, dedicated and talented engineers across Europe. Our services cover the whole life cycle of space programmes from early concepts to operations. Our Space Division provides a dynamic, supportive and friendly atmosphere in which you are encouraged to lead with initiative. We support new ideas from our colleagues and are focused on innovation. Moreover, we actively manage your professional development, training and career progression. For the location in Darmstadt, Germany we are looking for two Software Engineers for the EPS Data and Product Processing Facilities fm at EUMETSAT. It is assumed that one Engineer will focus more on the FEPPGF aspects, while the other will be more concentrating on the PGFPPF issues. Tasks The EUMETSAT Technical and Scientific Support Department TSS provides support to operations of existing satellite systems and to the development of new programmes. For the future, several new missions are in preparation such as MTG, EPS Second Generation EPS SG and others. A core activity will be the maintenance and evolution of the EPS data and product processing systems. The EPS Ground Segment monitors and controls EUMETSATs METOP satellites and processes and distributes all data from its instrument payload. The EPS Front End Processing Facility FEP is responsible for the transport of XBand data from Svalbard to the central site in Darmstadt and to the Backup Control Centre BUCC in Madrid. The Product Generation Facility PGF is in charge of generating L0 products and is also in control of the higher level production in the EPS Core Ground Segment CGS. Higher level production is then performed in Product Processing Facilities PPF. Within TSS, the System Engineering and Projects Division SEP together with the Generic Systems and Infrastructure Division GSI is in charge of the maintenance and engineering of the ground based satellite infrastructure of the operational systems and to provide engineering expertise for the preparation of new missions. As members of the SEP LEO Mission Data Processing Operational Applications maintenance team, the Key Person shall support the maintenance and evolution of the EPS Ground Segment, specifically the FEP and PGF facilities and provide support to the development and integration of new PPF. The FEP and PGF application software is mainly developed in C and a good experience in C is therefore mandatory. For the PPF support knowledge of C will be needed in addition. The Key Persons duties will include a range of tasks, from the support of the day to day operation and maintenance, the analysis, design, development and testing of the facilities which also includes the handling of anomalies, upgrades and configuration changes for these facilities. Tasks will also contain the settingup and implementation of maintenance policies and procedures as well as the coordination with external providers of maintenance services. Besides the above described routine tasks, the Key Person will also be expected to contribute to design and system engineeringreengineering activities in the field of science data processing that will become necessary for existing and future production systems. Typically the tasks will include Contribute to the definition and design of architectures of data processing ground segments and their components, their interfaces, and the validation and verification methods Monitor the detailed design and implementation of new system software components by industrial contractors and perform the acceptance of externally developed components Support the operations of existing data processing ground segments and their maintenance and evolution. This will also include Upgrade software, including implementing and maintaining new algorithms and products for the EPS instrument suite, e.g. for ASCAT, ATOVS and AVHRR processing, including rationalising common data processing components such as software libraries to reduce cost Maintenance and development of the FEP and PGF software it should be noted that the first line maintenance is being performed by EUMETSAT in conjunction with the industrial contractor the second line maintenance is being performed by the industrial contractor under supervision and with support from EUMETSAT and it entails in particular Contribution to FEPPGF system design and reengineering Support to the development and implementation of FEP and PGF tools and script Support to procurement activities for maintenance and evolution activities as described above Perform routine tasks in operational systems under configuration control such as Support to Configuration Management, building and distribution of FEPPGF software releases and patches Support to the development, integration and configuration management of software developed by third parties, its installation, and configuration and testing Anomaly investigations, documentation and classification Follow up of the delivery of SW resolutions for these anomalies Perform SW testing in a structured approach to verify that delivered SW is fulfilling the requirements or to demonstrate that problems have been corrected Analysis of the maintenance requirements and identification, procurement or implementation of the tools required to fulfil them Settingup and implementation of maintenance policies and procedures Support to the procurement and installation of hardware and software, and the coordination with external providers of support services Participation in technical meetings and formal reviews Essential requirements In addition to having a University degree or equivalent in a relevant discipline, the Key Person shall have experience in SW development, configuration controlled software build environments, experience with the operation, maintenance or trouble shooting of large, complex, realtime data processing systems.

Will Sequestration Bring Pork Processing to a Screeching Halt?
2013-02-15 16:20:00| National Hog Farmer
What a week in Washington. As a vast divide separates the congressional Republicans and Democrats when it comes to budget issues, The Hill is predicting a high likelihood that the automatic spending cuts known as the sequester will be implemented. Food Safety News reported this week that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) could conduct 2,100 fewer inspections at domestic and foreign food facilities and the U.S Department of Agricultures Food Safety and Inspection Service might have to furlough all employees for approximately two weeks to meet the extensive budget cuts. This would, in effect, bring the U.S. meat industry to a screeching halt.National Hog Farmer Blog read more
