Tasks & accountabilities

• Development of tracking algorithms for a space-based object tracking system
• Analysis of tracking filters for performance comparisons to select the optimal algorithm
• Implementation of the selected algorithm into a code framework (preferred programming language: Fortran)
• Modularisation of the code implementation with object oriented programming techniques to facilitate integration into the space-based tracking System
• A code framework in Fortran 2003 is available and can be used as a starting point.
• This job requires an awareness of any potential compliance risks and a commitment to act with integrity, as the foundation for the Company’s success, reputation and sustainable growth.

Profile
