Company description : EUMETSAT is Europe's meteorological satellite agency, operating satellites that monitor the weather and climate from space - 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. EUMETSAT is an international organisation employing staff from across all 30 member states and this role is being advertised on multiple international job boards, but please note that this role would be based in Darmstadt, Germany and would require international applicants to relocate if successful. More about us EUMETSAT's role is to establish and operate meteorological satellites to monitor the weather and climate from space - 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. This information is supplied to the National Meteorological Services of the organisation's Member and Cooperating States in Europe, as well as other users worldwide. EUMETSAT also operates several Copernicus missions on behalf of the European Union and provide data services to the Copernicus marine and atmospheric services and their users. As an intergovernmental European Organisation, EUMETSAT can recruit nationals only from the 30 Member States (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom). Job description : We are currently looking for an experienced Remote Sensing Scientist to join our international team of young and inspiring engineers and industry professionals, tasked with driving innovation within the Space, Satellite and Earth Observation sector. This role is routed in the mission of EUMETSAT and will provide the opportunity to work with leading IT, Space and Earth Observation organisations and domain experts to make a positive impact on society! The Remote Sensing and Products (RSP) Division provides the scientific expertise required to develop, implement, validate, maintain, and evolve operational observational products for all EUMETSAT satellites and agreed third party missions, such as Copernicus Sentinel-3, as well as establishing the user requirements for future EUMETSAT satellite programmes. Within the Image Navigation, Registration and Calibration Competence Area (INRC CA) of the RSP division, the Remote Sensing Scientist – radiometric calibration expert is responsible for,and contribute to, scientific support, prototyping, developing and maintaining vicarious calibration and inter-calibration methods to address Level-1 radiometric calibration needs for EUMETSAT imaging instruments. What you'll be doing :

• Acquire and maintain an in-depth understanding of the imagers, polarimeters and imaging spectrometers of current (EPS, MSG, MTG-I, Sentinel-3) and future (MTG-S, EPS-SG, CO2M) satellite systems and of their Level-1 processing and radiometric performances;
• Provide calibration expertise to establish the calibration performance, identify anomalies or inconsistencies in the Level-1 radiometric calibration chain, and work with instrument and processing experts to troubleshoot, determine root causes, and develop solutions;
• Support the maintenance and monitoring of the current EUMETSAT in-house calibration tools;
• Support scientific development, prototyping and operational implementation of vicarious and inter-calibration methods for optical imaging sensors, from UV to thermal infrared;
• Initiate, manage and exploit internal and external studies on the extension of relevant calibration and inter-calibration methods and activities;
• Support the activities with the international research working groups (e.g. GSICS) in the development of common methods of satellite inter-calibration and vicarious calibration. Required profile : Requirements : Qualifications :
• Advanced university degree or equivalent in remote sensing of atmospheric composition parameters, meteorology, physics or another relevant discipline. Skills and Experience :
• In-depth knowledge of the physics of optical remote sensing;
• Knowledge of vicarious radiometric calibration and inter-calibration techniques is considered a strong asset;
• Demonstrated experience of working with optical imaging instruments Level-1 products, in the development phase or the operational phase;
• Proven experience in developing scientific application software using Python. Familiarity with databases and additional expertise in general-purpose programming languages (such as C++ and Java) is an advantage;
• Excellent analytical, synthesis, and presentation skills, paired with strong interpersonal abilities and a proven track record of successfully applying these skills within teams and across multidisciplinary collaborations.
