Abstract
HERMES Pathfinder is a constellation of six 3U nano-satellites by the Italian Space Agency (ASI) and hosting simple but innovative X-ray detectors to monitor cosmic high energy transients such as Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB). The ASI Space Science Data Center (SSDC) is a multi-mission science operation, data processing and data archiving center that will host the HERMES Science Operation Center (SOC). The SOC is responsible for archiving, generating, validating, and distributing scientific and ancillary data, for quick-look analysis, mission planning, GRB trigger alerts, calibration data and data-analysis software. SSDC has developed specific pipelines to automatically perform each task and the HERMEDAS (HERMES Data Analysis Software) software package to generate calibrated and cleaned scientific data from raw telemetry data. The HERMES science data archive will be freely and publicly accessible at www.asi.ssdc.it.

S. Puccetti has been involved in the development and in the data exploitation of many X-ray satellites (e.g., NuSTAR, ATHENA, HERMES, IXPE, Chandra, XMM-Newton, Beppo-SAX). She has experience on SOC (Science Operation Center) activities of X-ray missions, such as development of scientific software for data calibration and cleaning (e.g., NuSTAR, IXPE, HERMES), development of data analysis tool (e.g., detection algorithm for X-ray images), set up of X-ray data archives and catalogs (e.g., NuSTAR, Swift-XRT, COSMOS, ELAIS-S1). She is currently ASI project scientist of the HERMES constellation pathfinder program for GRB science in high energies and responsible for HERMES SOC activities at the ASI Space Data Center (SSDC). Her research activity is mainly focused on Compton Thick AGN and analysis of extragalactic surveys.
