EISCAT Scientific Association is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to lead the software development for EISCAT_3D

EISCAT_3D is a modern, multi-static, phased array radar system to be deployed in Finland, Norway, and Sweden. The implementation phase starts 1 September 2017 and the system will be ready for use in 2021.

As Senior Software Engineer, you will lead the software development for EISCAT_3D. The Software Engineer will join the EISCAT_3D project team to help develop a scalable and distributed software architecture for the system. To successfully perform the duties, it is critical to have a modern, forward-looking, and standards-based approaches to software design and development. The radar systems will initially consist of 20 000 channels at each of three sites, so software approaches that are properly scalable in a real-time environment are crucial.

As of today, little of the needed software sets exist in the world. A significant challenge will therefore be to find and attract the key individuals possessing realisable solutions. One possible route could be to establish partnerships with universities in Europe and elsewhere.

The Senior Software Engineer will lead a small software development team in an agile environment to create, maintain, and extend a diverse array of engineering and system application tools that will be used for the operation of the world's most advanced scientific radar. Furthermore, the Senior Software Engineer will have a superb opportunity to influence the software development of the whole system based on own interest and background.
