JOB DESCRIPTION Spacecraft Operations Manager Responsibilities Duties Tasks The Spacecraft Operations Manager SOM is responsible for the definition, implementation and execution of all mission operations activities. His responsibilities encompass the requirements definition for operational facilities and software, operations preparation, generation and validation of Flight Operation Procedures, LEOP operations timeline, operational databases, displays and onboard software maintenance tool and procedures. The SOM is also responsible for execution of spacecraft operations, onboard software maintenance and inorbit mission evaluations and preparation and execution of System Compatibility Test Campaign SCTC activities. The SOM is also directly involved in the operational decision making in the event that spacecraft anomalies occur. The operational facilities, tools and products required to support a GALILEO LEOP SOYUZ have already been developed and operationally validated with the 1st GALILEO FOC LEOP Aug2014, as a consequence the service mainly focus on preventive and corrective maintenance of the operations facilities, tools and products, and on preparation and execution of LEOP. GALILEO LEOP are conducted alternatively from ESOC Control Centre and CNES Control Centre Toulouse. Each shift is composed of a mixed team i.e. team members from ESOC and CNES The duration between 2 LEOP is either 3months if the next launch is a SOYUZ Launch 2 spacecraft or 6 months if the next launch is an ARIANE5 launch 4 spacecraft. For each SOYUZ LEOP 2 SOM out of a pool of 4 will be assigned one out of 2 from ESOC, one out of 2 from CNES. For an ARIANE5 LEOP, all 4 SOMs 2 from ESOC and 2 from CNES will be in charge of LEOP operations execution The SOM will be assigned to one or more GALILEO LEOP either as lead SOM or as a deputy SOM. For the LEOP to which the SOM has been assigned, the SOM will be responsible with its CNES counterpart for ensuring The readiness of the operations tools and products required to execute the operations The operational readiness of the Flight Control Team shift Spacecraft Operations Engineers and Spacecraft Controllers under its leadership. Timely provision of the inputs required relevant to the SOM service for the GALILEO LEOP reviews Operational Validation Readiness Review, Operations Readiness Review Execution of the LEOP, including supporting the Flight Operations Director for investigation and recovery of inflight anomalies Timely production and release of the LEOP operations report In the assigned period the 1st LEOP to be supported by the SOM will be operated from CNES control Centre. The current baseline is that GALILEO LEOP are SOYUZ LEOP dual spacecraft, however it is expected that during the period of the service an ARIANE5 LEOP quadruple spacecraft will have to be prepared and executed. The present planning targets for the next LEOP to either A SOYUZ LEOP not earlier than NET endFeb2015 An ARIANE5 LEOP before mid2015 When not assigned to a specific LEOP the SOM service shall ensure that the preventive and corrective maintenance of the operations organisation and products.
