Functiebeschrijving

Are you motivated as a Configuration and Data Management (CADM) Lead to work on Europe’s own global satellite navigation system? Do you enjoy bringing structure, control and traceability to complex, mission-critical programmes? As a CADM Lead within CGI Space, you can make a direct contribution to the Galileo programme.

Your day-to-day activities

As CADM Lead, you will be responsible for Configuration and Data Management activities within a mission-critical system that is part of the Galileo 2nd Generation infrastructure. Galileo is Europe’s own global satellite navigation system, providing highly accurate positioning services under civilian control. Within this complex and security-sensitive environment, effective configuration and data management is essential to ensure that system baselines, documentation, software, hardware and other configuration items remain controlled, traceable and compliant throughout the project lifecycle. You will lead the CADM activities within the project and work closely with project management, systems engineering, software and infrastructure teams, quality assurance, security teams and customer stakeholders. You will ensure that configuration and data management processes are consistently applied and that project deliverables meet contractual and programme requirements.
