About the role

  • Senior Data Processing Engineer at ABSOLUT SENSING developing geophysical products from hyperspectral images. Focused on satellite monitoring to reduce global methane emissions.

Responsibilities

  • Develop geometric corrections: geolocation, co-registration and orthorectification.
  • Develop radiometric corrections and calibration: instrumental corrections, spectral calibration and conversion to physical units.
  • Integrate radiative transfer models to account for atmospheric effects.
  • Implement inversion algorithms to extract geophysical maps (e.g., gas concentrations, surface properties), including uncertainty tracking.
  • Transition algorithms from research prototypes to production environments with a strong emphasis on code quality: clean design, testing, documentation, reproducibility and performance.

Requirements

  • More than 5 years of hands-on experience in software engineering applied to Earth observation or scientific data processing.
  • Proven experience developing and maintaining processing pipelines for satellite imagery.
  • Experience in physical modeling, such as radiative transfer models or geometric corrections, is highly valued.
  • Continuous learning mindset and a passion for pushing boundaries.
  • Proficiency in English.
  • Good communication skills, open-mindedness and team spirit.
  • Proficiency in Python or Rust and strong programming best practices.
  • Understanding of geometric correction principles (orthorectification, co-registration) and radiometric calibration.
  • Strong analytical skills for implementing inversion algorithms and managing uncertainty metrics.
  • Experience handling Earth observation data formats (e.g., NetCDF, GeoTIFF) and coordinate reference systems.

Benefits

  • Meal vouchers
  • Supplementary health insurance
  • 50% reimbursement of public transport/commuting costs
