For our facility Space Operations and Astronaut Training in Köln we are looking for an
IT Network Engineer (f/m/x)
Planning and implementation of the LUNA Groundsegment
What to expect:
On the site of the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Cologne, DLR is building a facility called LUNA for the development and simulation of future Earth's moon space missions in a joint project with ESA. In addition to basic astronautical and robotic missions, the objective is to prepare united and autonomous lunar operations. The outfitting elements of LUNA are provided by various DLR institutes and ESA departments, but only their joint utilization enables the realization of planned mission scenarios and test campaigns. For this purpose, all components and units are connected to an IT ground segment based on space mission standards that is operated by mission teams in Cologne and Oberpfaffenhofen.
At Cologne-Porz, an operator team of the Microgravity User Support Center (MUSC) manages and runs the LUNA control center.
The focus of the work is on the implementation, verification and long-term operation of the MUSC IT ground infrastructure of LUNA, which is planned, realized and deployed together with the LUNA IT team at Oberpfaffenhofen. In addition, an internal MUSC ground segment is to be planned, implemented and finally put into operation: it is used for simulation and operations preparation and is the MUSC contribution to the LUNA project.
Hybrid working is possible after consultation and depending on project requirements.
