The DFACS control systems is the main component for achieving inorbit demonstration of the unprecedented low differential acceleration noise for the two free floating Test Masses in the Inertial Sensor subsystem. In particular, correct tuning and robustness of the DFACS will likely define the ultimate performance of the Lisa Pathfinder mission objectives. Hence, the post holder will also have a major responsibility for verifying the science performance budget of the mission. Specifically, the main tasks of the post include Supervising the design and implementation of the DFACS and AOCS subsystems effectively finished. Supervising the verification of DFACS in particular performed by Industry AOCS verification is to a large extent finished. This includes the test planning, test procedure development, test execution and analysis of test results as well as taking part in nonconformance review boards. Monitoring the schedule of DFACS verification onground and inorbit commissioning. Supervising the DFACS user manual prepared by Industry for correctness. Supervising the inorbit commissioning of DFACS that will be performed by Industry. Liaison with STOC and MOC for the preparations of handover of the SC after inorbit commissioning for the DFACS. This involves following science operations simulations before launch and assessing nonconformant observations raised during such simulations for impact on DFACS. Verification of the DFACS and science performance achieved in his specific field of competence, supporting System Engineering manager on the definition of the flight operations constraints and procedures, and the mission operations the preparation and implementation of the launch and commissioning phase. Required Skills and Experience University degree or equivalent in a relevant discipline. Fluency in English. An extensive insight and good experience in control engineering and verification of complex control systems is required. Strong interpersonal and good communication skills are required for efficient interaction with highly skilled industrial and scientific expertise as well as capability to work effectively with the ESA project team.
