Vacancy in the Directorate of Earth Observation Programmes. ESA is an equal opportunity employer, committed to achieving diversity within the workforce and creating an inclusive working environment. Applications from women are encouraged. Post Multispectral Instrument Detection Chain and Performance Engineer This post is classified A2A4 on the Coordinated Organisations salary scale. Location ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands Description Multispectral Instrument Detection Chain and Performance Engineer in the Earth Observation Projects Department, Directorate of Earth Observation Programmes Duties Reporting to the Sentinel2 MSI payload and mission engineering manager, the incumbent will be part of the Sentinel2 project team and responsible for procuring the subassemblies constituting the payload VNIR and SWIR detection chains detectors, proximity electronic units, video compression subsystem, following up the optomechanical and electrical integration of the detection chains in the payload, checking consistency of the development plan and AIT programme from subassembly level up to the payload and satellite levels, allowing appropriate characterisation of the detection chains key parameters driving MSI radiometric and optical performance, the verification approach for detection chain functionalities and performance and its appropriateness to associated system requirements compliance. Duties include monitoring the design, development and assembly of each detection chain constituent detectors, proximity electronic units, video compression subsystem so that their procurement meets system engineering requirements coherently and costeffectively, establishing and monitoring, with the industrial consortium, the detection chain performance verification programme and monitoring its incremental implementation from unitsubassembly level up to instrument and satellite integrated level, including verification of external interfaces, to demonstrate qualification andor acceptance of the payload detection chains, ensuring that payload performance requirements, keeping focused on the detection chains key parameters, are being verified in compliance with applicable specifications and standards, reviewing payload detection chain AIT plans and their consistency with the design, development, integration, test and verification plans applicable to the payload, monitoring commissioning of optical, mechanical and electrical ground support equipment required for payload performance characterisation and functional validation at instrument and satellite level, monitoring delivery of relevant detection chain test data and verification information to the ground segment, monitoring performance SNR, MTF, spatialtemporal coregistration and engineering budgets, ensuring consistency with payloads overall performance requirements, ensuring consistency of the payload reference and characterisation databases required for onground and inorbit payload monitoring, supporting commissioning preparation to achieve payload functional verification and inorbit performance characterisation.
