Tasks:

The Pipeline Systems Group of our customers Science Operations Software Department is developing the VLT and VLTI data reduction pipelines for the operational instruments at La Silla Paranal Observatory. The data reduction pipelines are used in two operational environments, by our customers Data Flow Operations at Garching, and by the Paranal Science Operations (PSO), for the quick-look assessment of data, the health-monitoring of instruments and detectors, the generation of master calibration data, the reduction of scientific exposures, and data quality control. The work involves the preparation of data reduction procedures for the VLT pipelines, and the implementation of these parts in ANSI-C with the CPL library, as well as the development of Reflex scientific workflows.
