Working for Open Cosmos
Aim high, go beyond At Open Cosmos we are solving the world's biggest challenges from space, providing businesses, governments and researchers access to more readily available information than ever before - ready for the challenge? Then read on

Ground Segment Products Team

Our team is responsible for the analysis, calibration and software on the ground-side which gathers and disseminates data from existing & future satellite fleets to our customers.

We follow a highly agile methodology, we look for suggestions & contributions from all team members, and we're not afraid to try new ways of working when we see an opportunity for improvement.

Our image processing specialist will be fundamental to ensuring the success of our future EO (Earth Observation) missions and our data platform DataCosmos, by analysing our imagery, improving the quality and delivering it into forms that will enable our customers to derive business-critical insights.

What will you be doing?

You will be at the forefront of leading the development of our image calibration processes, analysis of image quality and software tools.

This will be used across our own Open Constellation & satellite fleets as we move into a phase of rapid expansion in order to deliver data to our customers as quickly as possible.

Working with satellite data from diverse sources and at different levels of processing, you'll develop software that make the data valuable to our customers and integrate this into our large-scale workflow orchestration system to process data at scale.

You'll take ownership of these workflows, making sure that they are running healthily and delivering the data within contract requirements, organisational goals, etcProcessing techniques you'll implement can include e.g.

band-to-band registration, georeferencing, orthorectification, optical correction, radiometric correction, atmospheric correction, cloud detection, etc

You'll be the main point of contact for sales and system engineering teams for the technical aspects and requirements of image processing, guiding the specifications and estimates that go into contracts and proposals.

As you progress, you will have the opportunity to drive the evolution of the image processing chain to improve both the quality of the images and the processing machinery in Open Cosmos, making recommendations for and/or developing new tools and algorithms to this end.

What you need to be successful

We're more interested in what you can do than being dogmatic about your background We'd love to take a look at your CV even if you're not sure you tick all the boxes.

To succeed in this role, you'll need:

Strong mathematical skills & knowledge in areas required for satellite image processing (e.g. matrix multiplication, convolutions, orbital mechanics)
Ability to write clean and readable image processing programs/scripts in e.g. Python and undertake image analysis
Knowledge of remote sensing techniques and working with geospatial libraries e.g. GDAL, QGIS
Coordinate with stakeholders and customers to understand their data needs.
Ability to work & learn independently, while also communicating effectively with the rest of the team to overcome blocking issues together

What we offer:

Prefer to mostly WFH, that's fine Need to take 30 mins at 3pm to get the kids from school? Go ahead.
We're more interested in your contributions than when and where you're working.
25 Days holiday in addition to national holidays.
