Under the direct authority of the Head of the Future Missions and Architecture Department, the Head of the Future Missions and Instruments Division (H/EOP-FM) is responsible for preparatory activities for future missions and instruments including:
On quantum sensing specifically, the departments’ mission is to harness the potential of quantum sensing technology, developing compact, power-efficient and space-qualified sensors capable of enhancing Earth observation, enriching our understanding of the Earth, and driving innovation and scientific excellence in addressing environmental challenges.
We invite you to join us as an intern and contribute to an exciting project aimed at accelerating innovation in quantum sensor technology for Earth observation.
The primary goal of this internship is to develop a proof-of-concept demo for a quantum sensor database, similar to what has been achieved for nanosatellite missions. You will focus on creating a functional prototype that enables users to compare quantum sensors based on key performance metrics, known as Figures of Merit. The demo will include sample data and projections for future trends. This role is ideal for someone with a background in industrial engineering, database development, and an interest in quantum sensing technologies and space-based Earth observation.
During the internship, you will be responsible for developing the demo from the ground up, focusing on the following key areas:
Design and structure the demo version of the database.
Create visualizations that demonstrate historical trends and future projections for quantum sensors, using sample data.
Develop physics models to link the quantum sensor FoMs to Earth observation mission requirements for at least one quantum sensor.
Use the demo database to prioritize a quantum sensor technology for at least one Earth observation mission concept.
By the end of this internship, you will:
This internship offers a rare opportunity to dive into the world of quantum sensing, developing a tool that has the potential to accelerate technological innovation in the field. If you’re ready to contribute to a project with real impact, apply today!
