About the Opportunity

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled individual to join our team as an Intern in the Science Projects Department, focusing on developing an interactive spacecraft simulation model for the En Vision mission.

Job Description

The successful candidate will be responsible for creating a comprehensive interactive model depicting the En Vision spacecraft in its operational environment. This will involve:

  • Developing a tool to showcase the spacecraft's orbit, various mission phases, and attitudes, providing engineers with a deeper understanding of the external environment, including Sun illumination, planet albedo, distance to Earth, and occultation by Venus.
  • Crafting specific views of subsystems, highlighting their architectures and locations on the spacecraft upon user selection.

The developed model will be used for investigations following tests or in-flight operations, interfacing with systems that allow using telemetry from the actual satellite. The goal is to create specific views useful during operations, enabling a clear understanding of the spacecraft's position, attitude, instrument line of sight, thruster usage, temperature maps, and out-of-limit telemetry parameters.

Requirements

To succeed in this role, you should possess:

  • Strong knowledge of software development, particularly in Python, Ansys STK, SPICE/Cosmographia, or similar tools.
  • Familiarity with gaming tools/game development software would be an asset.
  • Understanding of spacecraft system engineering principles.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to work independently.
What We Offer

This internship provides a unique opportunity to contribute to a prestigious space agency, working on a cutting-edge project that will shape our understanding of the Venus environment. As a member of our team, you will enjoy:

  • A competitive estimated salary: €1,000 - €1,200 per month (dependent on location and experience).
  • A chance to develop your skills in a dynamic and innovative environment.
  • Opportunities for professional growth and networking within the space industry.
Who We Are

The European Space Agency (ESA) is an equal opportunities employer committed to fostering diversity and inclusivity within our workforce. We welcome applications from qualified candidates who share our values and passion for space exploration.
