Dear Paul,

I would like to come back to our phone conversation of last Friday. I would 
appreciate if you could dissaminate the attached job opening. We are looking for 
capable person in view of the long lasting involvement in the Rosetta mission 
and the upcomming change of generation. This could turn into a leading position 
depending on the qualification and commitment of the person.

Thank you very much for your support.

Uwe Keller


Job opening at Max-Planck-Institute for Aeronomy (Germany)

The Max-Planck-Institute for Aeronomy (MPAE) has been successfully involved in 
several space missions providing CCDs and readout electronics. Starting with the 
Giotto mission to comet Halley in the early eighties we provided CCDs for the 
Cassini and recently for Mars Pathfinder missions.
Currently we are delivering cameras for further Mars landers and develop 
electronics for the science cameras of the Rosetta mission that will rendezvous 
with a comet in 2011. Here backside illuminated 2k by 2k CCDs will make state of 
the art imaging possible.

We are looking for a colleague to strengthen our small CCD electronics group. We 
expect a person with experience in CCD testing and/or electronics development. 
Acquaintance with space electronics would be useful but is not required. The 
initial appointment is for 5 years.
Depending on the qualification and personality a leading role within this group 
can be envisaged.

Inquiries and applications to be addressed to:
Dr. H. Uwe Keller 
Max-Planck-Institute for Aeronomy
Max-Plack-Str. 2
37191 Katlenburg-Lindau
Germany
