Job Requisition ID:18732
Closing Date:31 July :59 CET/CEST
Publication:External Only
Type of Contract:Internal Research Fellow
Date Posted:19 June 2024- Internal Research Fellowship Opportunity in the Directorate of Technology, Engineering and Quality. This post is classified F2 on the Coordinated Organisations' salary scale.
Location
ESTEC, Noordwijk, Netherlands
Our team and mission
The Section, a large multicultural and dynamic team, is involved in the following areas:

  • Systems engineering support to the space missions of the various ESA directorates: Human and Robotic Exploration Programmes, Space Transportation, Earth Observation Programmes, Navigation, Science, Exploration and Robotics, Operations, and Connectivity and Secure Communications;
  • Feasibility and earlyphase studies of future ESA missions using the stateoftheart Concurrent Design facility (CDF);
  • Supporting the digitalisation of engineering and providing methodologies and tools using modelbased systems engineering, augmented and virtual reality, machine learning and AI;
  • Initiating and performing technology research and development (R&D) activities targeting strategic fields of systems and concurrent engineering, including clean space, ecodesign and the latest innovation trends;
  • Contributing to the evolution of systems engineering methodologies and standards.
You can find out more by visiting the following websites:

  • CDF
  • Systems Engineering Division

Field(s) of activity/research for the traineeship-The purpose of this research fellowship is to propose, implement and validate solutions to the theoretical and practical issues arising during the space mission life cycle while ensuring synergies with past and ongoing developments in digital engineering and MBSE within the Agency.

Your tasks will include:
- proposing, implementing and validating solutions that will lower the threshold for the adoption of model-based techniques by stakeholders with a wide range of backgrounds, skills, and knowledge levels;
- identifying innovative methods to capture system requirements and architectures in user-friendly ways, for example through visualisation, augmented reality, immersive presence and digital assistants;
- at the request of the responsible technical officer, participating in and contributing to ongoing technology research and development activities relevant to the line of applied research, identifying technology gaps in driving future developments and proposing approaches to address these gaps as input to the relevant ESA technology roadmaps;
- contributing to semantic interoperability, i.e. how to use conceptual data models (ontologies) to drive meaningful data exchange;
- supporting the ESA project teams in the adoption of MBSE, advising on the best modelling strategy for the needs identified and potentially providing hands-on training to non-experts as required;
- investigating methods to derive knowledge from data available in both legacy and MBSE model artifacts, for example using natural language processing, artificial intelligence, and machine learning techniques, to improve data quality, model creation and maintenance while promoting reuse;
- actively participating in the dissemination of the results achieved within the Agency and with the European space community and contributing to working groups to drive forward the state of practice.
