We're looking for an experienced Eclipse developer to work on spacecraft
operations tools in Silicon Valley:
The Ensemble development group at NASA Ames Research Center is looking for
engineers in Computer Science or related fields to work on software
currently used in the operation of spacecraft and other NASA facilities.
The Ensemble team develops software tools that are used to operate the
Spirit and Opportunity Mars Rovers, Phoenix Mars Lander, Mars Science
Laboratory, a flight analogue testbed at Johnson Space Center, as well as a

NASA's mission centers such as the Jet Propulsion Lab and Johnson Space
Center.
The Ensemble framework, which is based on the Java Eclipse Rich Client
Platform, represents a novel approach to developing operational and robust
software on an aggressive timeline. Among other things, Ames-developed
components enable scientists and engineers to plan out the operations of a
remote spacecraft, a testbed facility on earth, and other complex systems.
Members of our team are required to work closely with various Ames research
groups to bring cutting edge products to operational personnel.
Required Skills:
BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science or closely related field
