The tasks to be performed include the short-term (flexible) scheduling of queue observations, the calibration and monitoring of the instruments, and the assessment of the scientific quality of the astronomical data. Paranal Operations Staff Astronomers contribute to the challenge of operating a world leading astronomical facility so as to optimize its scientific output, have the opportunity to acquire expert knowledge of novel instrumentation, and may be given the overall responsibility for an instrument. Flexibility exists so as to tailor duties and responsibilities as a function of personal expertise and interests.
