Requirement: National Research Council Canada intends to establish a Supply Arrangement on behalf of the Space Exploration Branch of the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) for the services of dedicated Instrument Scientists. The Work involves providing Missions & Operations Support for the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) program at the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in Baltimore, Maryland as part of a cooperative agreement with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) of the United States of America. Instrument Scientists will be required to support ground-system development for the Fine Guidance Sensor (FGS) and the Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS).
