Working Student (f/m/d) - GSOC Reactive Planning

What to expect

The position belongs to the mission planning group, which deals with the development and construction of systems, in particular with planning the activities of ground segments and satellites in the orbit and their payloads. Future earth observation missions, the support of constellations including optical communication or the operation of a rover on other planets and moons pose particular challenges in terms of planning and system architecture. These requirements must be analyzed, the feasibility demonstrated and finally the mission planning software system implemented and operated after satellite launch. Complex interrelationships and dependencies in the development of a mission planning software system and its interactions via internal and external interfaces as well as the underlying user requirements are part of the description. Another important aspect is the development and ongoing further development of generic components and services and the testing of new technologies.

Your tasks

• scala 3 migration of mission planning libraries and frameworks
• preparation of Scala 3 trainings and documentation for mission planning engineers
• extend architecture documentation for mission planning libraries and frameworks
• improve documentation for mission planning libraries
• integrate mission planning libraries into standard monitoring infrastructure
• design and implement alerting infrastructure in mission planning frameworks

The tasks can be carried out by arrangement as a student assistant or as part of a student internship or in connection with a thesis (Bachelor/Master).
