The focus will be on the Science Investigator-led Processing System (SIPS) which is the science algorithm processing component for the ICESat-2 mission and is comprised of the SIPS facility, as well as the SIPS Scheduling and Data Management System (SDMS) and ATLAS Science Algorithm Software (ASAS).
The person selected for this position will support the project in the successful deployment of the SIPS system.
The SE needs recent/relevant Ground Systems experience with NASA, with demonstrated experience with NASA protocols and directives regarding Systems Engineering, which will include a strong understanding of relevant NPRs, eg, 7120 and 7150.
He/she will be expected to review systems requirements applicable to SIPS, as well as understanding the correlation of requirements across the ground system enterprise for ensuring continuity of the SIPS approach and activities to achieve goals and objectives of the ICESat-2 ground system.
The SE will participate in a broad spectrum of development, testing, deployment, and transition to operations activities.
The SEs role will require in-depth coordination of engineering activities with the SIPS Test Lead and will participate in the distillation of requirements, construct of detailed test procedures that will fully demonstrate satisfaction of the requirement(s), analysis of collected artifacts, and confirmation of requirement(s) satisfaction.
In addition, the SE will play a significant role in identification of SIPS failure scenarios, and participation in the documented articulation of how software recovery processes are applied and confirmed.
Other duties will include the verification and validation of ground subsystems operations requirements; support the development, integration, deployment, and initial operations of the SIPS system as a component of the ground system; work closely with other subsystem engineers and ground systems developers to validate operations requirements; support ground ICD development; support all pre-launch tests, as well as all assigned post-launch tests, and transition to operations.
The SE will participate in various scheduled and ad hoc meetings, TIMs, and teleconferences, and will be responsible for compilation and presentation of assigned documents and presentations.
