<p class="MsoPlainText">We are looking to hire a POD scientist to work on the precise orbit determination and in particular the solar radiation pressure and attitude modelling of the BeiDou constellation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Who may apply: All qualified Australian and international candidates. CRC for Spatial Information will sponsor a working VISA for this position.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The position offers competitive salary ($80K to $115K per annum depending on experience) and benefits together with relocation expenses.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">This position is a project based 26-month appointment with the Cooperative Research Centre for Spatial Information (CRCSI) and will be hosted by Geoscience Australia (GA), Canberra.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The research project will address solar radiation pressure (SRP) and attitude regime modelling of the BeiDou (BDS) satellite constellations with the goal of producing BDS products that support users across Australia to determine their
positions anytime, anywhere and with the highest precision and integrity possible. The research will contribute to Australia's National Positioning Infrastructure (NPI).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Australia greatly benefits from the current BDS geographical configurations. The capacity of a future analysis centre software (ACS) platform to utilise the BDS system as part of its routine processing constitutes an important requirement
for the successful implementation of the NPI.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The successful candidate will work within GA's GNSS Positioning and Algorithms Development Team. The role will give the opportunity to work collaboratively within GA and its partner organisation including: Wuhan University, NASA, CRCSI,
Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT), Otago University (NZ) and Curtin University Western Australia.<o:p></o:p></p>
