Our German activities grow at fast pace and to face our costumers high level expectations and needs, we are looking for talented profiles having relevant experience in Space systems. The Key Person will be a member of the SEP Data Processing System Applications and Tools Group and in particular the Supporting Applications Engineering team, a multidisciplinary engineering team supporting operational and future programmes. Moreover the key person is expected to support the Operational department in the frame of maintenance and evolution of LEOGEO data and product processing systems. The Key Person shall provide engineering support to design and system engineeringreengineering activities, fully system lifecycle, in the area of the Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Multi Mission Element framework, named MME MONA, which consists in a portfolio of offline Ground Segment elements, specifically for the Long Trend Analysis, Quality Monitoring and Reporting aimed to support the operational activities of existing and future programmes. Candidate areas are programmes such as, EPS, MSG, MTG, EPSSG, JasonCS, Sentinel 3. The Key Person shall be requested to support the maintenance and evolution of off line Ground Segment elements, specifically for quality control, calibration and validation, data visualisation and auxiliary data management and services. The application software is mainly developed in CC, PERL, IDL and Python. 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. The Key Person will be the focal point when it comes to integrating each individual Facility into a system context, covering all aspects from early SW development, definition of interfaces, system integration and testing, and end to end testing of the production system. Tasks will also contain the settingup and implementation of maintenance policies and procedures as well as the coordination with external providers of maintenance services. The activity is assumed, as a baseline, to require the fulltime participation of one Consultant for the duration of the contract. The tasks of the Key Person will be carried out mainly at EUMETSAT facilities in Darmstadt, but travel within Europe may be required for certain activities. Typically tasks will include Contribute to the definition, design, implementation and maintenance of architectures for data processing ground segments and their components with special emphasis on product quality control, calibration and validation, production monitoring and reporting. This task will mainly include Maintenance and evolutions of the MONA framework in all its components Configuration Management, building and distribution of software releases and patches Contribution to software system design and reengineering Support the definition, design and implementation of Climate Data Record project 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 for product quality control and calibrationvalidation activities. Perform routine tasks in operational systems under configuration control such as Support the Configuration Management process and the building and distribution of 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 any engineering change e.g. anomalies and evolutions Perform standard SW engineering activities such as SW testing in a structured approach to verify that delivered SW is fulfilling the requirements or to demonstrate that problems have been corrected. SW integration and verification in the EUMETSAT ground segments Settingup and implementation of maintenance policies and procedures Support to the procurement and installation of software, and the coordination with external providers of support services Participation in meetings and formal reviews. PROFILE Mandatory Attributes, Skills and Experience In addition to having a University degree or equivalent in a relevant discipline, the Key Person shall have the following mandatory attributes, skills and experienced.

New Department For Transport Data Shows No Palm Oil Used In The UK
2016-08-05 18:19:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: For the first time since the start of the UKs Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation in 2008, no palm oil has been used in the renewable biodiesel that is blended into fossil diesel. Volumes have dropped sharply since 2012 and UK biodiesel is now largely made from waste feedstocks, in particular used cooking oil. UK feedstocks are also the major contributor to renewable bioethanol that is blended into fossil petrol. In 2008 UK feedstocks accounted for 8% of UKs renewable fuels and this has now...
