Data Analyst/Telescope Operator

2 weeks ago

Perth, Western Australia CSIRO Full time $96,111 - $109,527 per year
Job description:

Acknowledgement of Country

CSIRO acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land, sea and waters, of the area that we live and work on across Australia. We acknowledge their continuing connection to their culture and pay our respects to their Elders past and present. View our vision towards reconciliation

Child safety

CSIRO is committed to the safety and wellbeing of all children and young people involved in our activities and programs. View our Child Safe Policy.

The opportunity

The SKA Observatory (SKAO) is a next-generation radio astronomy facility that will revolutionise our understanding of the Universe and the laws of fundamental physics. Enabled by cutting-edge technology, it promises to have a major impact on society, in science and beyond.

In Australia, the SKAO is collaborating with CSIRO to operate and support the construction of the low frequency telescope (SKA-Low) in remote Western Australia on Wajarri Yamaji Country.

The Traditional Owners and native title holders, the Wajarri Yamaji, have gifted CSIRO with the traditional name Inyarrimanha Ilgari Bundara for the CSIRO Murchison Radio-astronomy Observatory, home to the SKA-Low telescope. The traditional name means 'sharing sky and stars' in the Wajarri language.

The SKA-Low Data Analyst/Telescope Operator is fundamental to delivering the broad and ambitious science from one of the world's largest telescopes.

This role will evolve as the SKA-Low telescope is built:

  • During the construction phase this role will be responsible for executing stable commissioning observations in collaboration with the Commissioning Team and the Assembly, Integration and Verification Team. Observing during this phase may take place outside of normal working hours.
  • Once construction is complete, the SKA-Low Data Analyst/Telescope Operator will be responsible for the day-to-day observing of the SKA-Low telescope and provide analysis of the initial telescope data for quality assurance and science verification.
Your duties will include:
  • Conduct, monitor and calibrate astronomical observations and use appropriate computing resources.
  • Assist with system checks, maintenance handovers, observation configurations and setups.
  • Undertake quality assurance of continuos, frequency-resolved (discrete), and time series radio frequency data obtained from early observations and existing data sets.
  • Contribute to the design and documentation of operating procedures for SKAO.
  • Support communication between engineering and technical staff and scientific stakeholders.

Location: Perth, Western Australia

Salary: AU$96,811 - AU$109,527 plus 15.4% superannuation

Tenure: Indefinite - Full-Time, Part-Time or Job-Share

Reference: 100056

To be considered you will need:

Essential

  • An undergraduate degree or equivalent in science or computing or relevant experience in a similar role.
  • Aptitude to control and operate a scientific research facility including familiarity with monitoring, controlling, and scheduling.
  • Appreciation of steps required for the acquisition and processing of scientific data.
  • Aptitude to contribute to the definition and development of operational procedures, monitoring dashboards and documentation.
  • Ability to work effectively as part of a multidisciplinary team.
  • An awareness of equitable practices, including accessibility, to facilitate broad access to the Observatory.

Desirable

  • Experience in data reduction pipelines and time series data.
  • Familiarity with scientific equipment calibration techniques.

CSIRO is an Equal Opportunity employer working hard to recruit world-class talent that represents the diversity across our society.
