The Leibniz-Institute of Freshwater Ecology and Inland Fisheries (IGB) is an institute of the Berlin research association (FVB). The FVB is comprised of eight research institutes in Berlin, which are active in the fields of natural sciences, life sciences and environmental sciences. As research institutes of national scientific importance, they are jointly funded by the German federal and state governments. The institutes belong to the Leibniz Association.
The IGB is the principal German center for research of limnic ecosystems, and unites hydrologists, chemists, microbiologists, fish ecologists and fish biologists (www.igbberlin.de). The research focus of the Institute of Space Sciences at the Free University Berlin
(FU) is airborne and spaceborne remote sensing. Both institutes collaborate in different scientific projects. For future research projects we are looking for an "Unmanned Airborne system specialist" to start immediately.
The job will be remunerated according to TVöD and is at first limited to 2 years, with an extension currently being sought. There is the possibility for supplemental professional qualifications.
Duties:
• Technical supervision of an unmanned aerial helicopter (UAS)
• Transfer and preparation of the collected data (e.g. VIS, IR, LIDAR, CASI)
• Quality control and administration of the data
• Collaboration in the development of measurements programs (e.g. cameras, GPS/IMU
integration)
• Organization, coordination and execution of flight campaigns
• Maintenance and calibration of optical sensors
Requirements:
• Higher education in an appropriated technical profession
• Excellent computer skills
• Advanced knowledge of mechanic and electronic systems
• Willingness and ability to perform field work
• Versatility and engagement
• Interest in and aptitude for team work
• Experience with optical sensors (e.g. IR and VIS cameras, LIDAR, CASI) is welcome
• Experience in photogrammetry, remote sensing and GIS is welcome
• Private pilot license or license to operate big UAVs (25-150 kg) is advantageous
