Greatest opportunity and salary conditions to work in ESAC The European Space Astronomy Centre in Madrid, Spain with The Server Labs. Well established and leader in software development and technology consultancy, The Server Labs is a European IT services company, specialised on software engineering and handson consulting. We offer an excellent package, including highest salary, social benefits, company benefits, extra holidays and health and dental insurance. Important Candidates must hold a European Passport and be willing to work in Spain Job Description Support to Science Archives and Virtual Observatory Software Engineering ServicesLISA Pathfinder Science Operations This work package is intended to provide a number of specialised services to support ESA in System and Software Engineering at ESAC for the Science Archives and Virtual Observatory Team. Within the Science Operations Departments overall responsibility for scientific operations development and execution for astronomy and solar systems missions, the Science Archives and Computer Engineering Unit carries in particular the role of developing science archives, providing easy access to mission data for the scientific community worldwide. The Science Archives Team in ESAC works on various archive projects from old missions ISO, Exosat, Giotto, Smart1, Huygens, Herschel, Planck, Ulysses, current missions XMMNewton, Integral, HST, Mars Express, Venus Express, Rosetta, Soho, Cluster, Gaia and future missions BepiColombo, Euclid, LisaPF, Solar Orbiter, . All mission science archives are available online through GUI rich client or thin client web interfaces and machine scriptable interfaces, with data distribution either online or via asynchronous FTP. Modular and flexible multitier and client server architecture together with the use of an objectoriented approach, Java and XML allows configurability and reuse of software systems across archive projects. Furthermore, ESA, through the ESAC Science Archives Team is playing an important role in the Virtual Observatory VO worldwide to position itself as the main VO actor for all European spacebased astronomical data. A VO is a network of interoperating data archives and software tools that use the connectivity provided by the Internet to form a scientific research environment in which astronomical research programs can be conducted. The vast astronomical archives and databases around the world, together with analysis tools and computational services, are linked together into an integrated facility, not only connecting astronomical data centres and providers but also providing collective capabilities beyond those possible in any individual archive. Within the Science Archives Team, people are usually dedicated to a specific archive project, taking care of design, implementation, operations and evolutive maintenance of the archive software systems data repository and database of products metadata, middletier applications, data distribution and interoperability, user and scriptable interfaces. As the archives software systems share a common technical framework, people assigned to one archive project can move to another archive project, ensuring easier and efficient knowledge transfer. Specific tasks would include system and software engineering tasks such as design, development, testing installation, deployment, operations, maintenance with associated documentation according to the ESA software engineering processes. Furthermore, participation to working groups, workshops, conferences and meetings where science archives and virtual observatory standards and practices are discussed might be required.
