Your role in the team
- At OHB System AG, you'll join a leading European systems integrator driving the future of space-based defence.
- In this role you'll lead the development of a state-of-the-art system of systems simulation platform, with elements interacting in real-time.
- Such simulation architecture will be the backbone integrating space assets, air-defence systems and national missile-defence infrastructures across Europe enabling the development of space and air shield systems.
- If you thrive on technical challenges, enjoy complexity, and want to shape systems that matter on a continental scale, this role is for you.
- Lead and coordinate the development of the simulator's core modules, including: Geometry module: simulation of satellite and system-of-systems positions and orientations (LEO, GEO, etc.) at each time step, Scene generation module: modelling of the observed environment, including atmospheric effects and radiative transfer, Sensor module: representation of geometric, spectral and radiometric sensor behaviour tailored to mission use cases, Ground processor: ingestion and correction of sensor data, applying instrument-specific compensations, User module: execution of image-processing algorithms to extract mission-relevant information.
- Führen Sie die Erstellung technischer Konzepte und Anforderungen für den Simulator an.
- Manage and prioritize the software engineering tasks and backlog.
- Ensure the information flow between the software team and other stakeholders, working in an international team of experts from OHB and project partners.
- Monitor and control technical progress, schedule, cost, and quality in close collaboration with project management.
- Identify, assess and mitigate software-product and project risks.
- Leiten Sie die Steuerung und Bewertung von Änderungen, die den Umfang, das Budget oder den Zeitplan des Projekts beeinflussen.
- Prepare, organize and lead technical reviews as well as key project milestone reviews.
