Job Description

Background

ERT, Inc. is seeking talented individuals to support the Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) in ensuring the quality and reliability of environmental satellite measurements. These measurements are vital for forecasting the weather, environmental monitoring, and numerous other applications.

The sensor science and crosscutting technology theme within STAR supports research and development for NOAA's satellite sensor payloads, ensuring data quality and preparing for future instruments. This involves developing mathematical models and algorithms to interpret satellite measurements, enhancing our understanding of Earth's systems and their impact on weather and climate.

Position Description

The selected candidate will work as part of collaborative teams to support the system/software design engineering and development of calibration tools and interfaces, and life cycle processing, maintenance, and stewardship of the JPSS/GOES-R series and other Sensor Data Records (SDR) including instrument and data product quality monitoring in support of the NESDIS/STAR integrated calibration/validation program.

The candidate will provide system engineering and related services in support of systems producing products derived from NOAA and non-NOAA satellite data, and data from other sources such as data collection platforms.

The candidate will support the government in developing, analyzing, and validating system architectures and interfaces, and related documentation.

The candidate will plan and execute the transition from research (and development) to operations, and develop all required processes such as validation, sustainment plans, and training of operational personnel.

The candidate will work closely with STAR SDR teams as well as inter-Agency collaborations and international partners on the development and maintenance of instrument and data product quality monitoring systems.

Required Skills

  • A minimum of 6+ years of applied science, software engineering and programming experience in satellite related applications (advanced degrees can offset multiple years of required experience).
  • Experience in instrument calibration and validation.
  • Software configuration and system administration abilities are recommended.
  • Knowledge of, and/or background in, cloud computing and/or AI/ML are also a plus.

Education

BS in an engineering discipline, atmospheric science, physical science, computer science, related discipline, or equivalent. Positions at the BS, MS, and PhD-level will be available.

Benefits

All full time employees are eligible for the following benefits upon starting: Medical, Dental, Vision, 401(k), Paid Time Off, and 11 Paid Federal Government Holidays.

ERT is a VEVRAA Federal Contractor and Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer - All qualified applicants will be considered for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, or protected Veteran status.
