EUMETSAT is Europe’s meteorological satellite agency. Its 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.

EUMETSAT is now inviting well qualified candidates from its Member States to apply for the following post:
EUMETSAT is the European operational satellite agency for monitoring weather, climate and the environment, pulling together the resources of 30 Member States. We observe the atmosphere, ocean and land surfaces from Space, 365 days a year, offering images and data to provide insights into weather situations, environmental hazards and climate change. Our work helps users worldwide to monitor changes in these to protect lives, lifestyles and properties.
The Meteosat Third Generation (MTG) programme will see the launch of six new geostationary (imaging and sounding) satellites from 2021 onwards. This programme will ensure the user community can look forward to continued visible observations from geostationary orbit, as well as the use of observations from infrared and ultraviolet/visible sounding instruments. MTG ground segment elements are being procured for the processing requirements of MTG imager and sounder data, and EUMETSAT’s infrastructure is being upgraded to accommodate the future needs of the MTG mission. We are recruiting for an engineer to help us integrate those elements and verify the overall MTG ground segment.
This is a challenging and rewarding opportunity to get involved in a long term programme where your expertise in integration and verification, preferably of Earth Observation satellite systems, will be fully realised. You will support the AIV Team Leader in many engineering activities and will have the opportunity to utilise your experience of DOORS and knowledge of ECSS engineering standards.
We offer a competitive salary, benefits and a great working environment in Darmstadt, Germany.
The closing date is 17th April 2018 and we expect to hold interviews in the w/c 21st May.
EUMETSAT is committed to providing an equal opportunities work environment for men and women and is seeking to recruit nationals from its Member States. Please see our website for further details.
