Job Abstract
The Cooperative Institute for Analysis in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) on the College of Colorado Boulder conducts collaborative analysis with NOAA’s Nationwide Facilities for Environmental Info (NCEI). CIRES has a direct opening for a Scientific Software program Developer. The profitable applicant will probably be liable for a wide range of duties associated to growing scientific software program and working that software program to provide new geomagnetic subject fashions. Ideally suited candidates could have expertise in scientific software program growth and transitioning analysis software program to operations. The flexibility to work collaboratively inside a staff of analysis scientists, software program builders and knowledge managers is a should. Candidates should exhibit a robust consideration to element and the flexibility to conceptualize person necessities into customer-friendly and environment friendly software program purposes.
The College of Colorado Boulder is dedicated to constructing a culturally numerous neighborhood of school, workers, and college students devoted to contributing to an inclusive campus setting. We’re an Equal Alternative employer, together with veterans and people with disabilities.
Who We Are
The CIRES/NCEI geomagnetism staff conducts primary and utilized analysis within the subject of Earth magnetism. We develop data-based fashions and calculators of the varied magnetic fields originating throughout the Earth (within the core, mantle, lithosphere and oceans) and within the near-Earth house setting (within the ionized layers of the environment and the magnetosphere). Such fashions have a variety of scientific and technical makes use of, from investigating bodily processes related to a specific supply, for instance core flows, to offering correct headings for plane navigation and directional drilling. The group is predicated out of NOAA’s Boulder campus and is primarily funded by the NOAA Nationwide Facilities for Environmental Info (NCEI).
The Cooperative Institute for Analysis in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) is an internationally acknowledged chief in modern environmental science and analysis and is positioned on the College of Colorado Boulder. At CIRES, greater than 800 environmental science professionals work to know the dynamic Earth system, together with individuals’s relationship with the planet. CIRES has partnered with NOAA since 1967, and our areas of experience embrace climate and local weather, modifications at Earth’s poles, air high quality and atmospheric chemistry, water sources, stable Earth sciences, and extra. Our imaginative and prescient is to be instrumental in making certain a sustainable future setting by advancing scientific and societal understanding of the Earth system.
What Your Key Obligations Will Be
- Transition analysis grade scientific software program to operations to provide cutting-edge geomagnetic subject fashions in a manufacturing setting.
- Contribute to the event of high-profile NOAA geomagnetic subject fashions, e.g., the World Magnetic Mannequin (WMM), Enhanced Magnetic Mannequin (EMM) and Excessive Definition Geomagnetic Mannequin (HDGM).
- Develop new geophysical inversion software program and assist future updates of present software program for scientific analysis functions.
- Pursue funding alternatives for scientific software program growth (NASA, NOAA, and so forth.).
- Develop detailed documentation of chosen software program for inside and exterior customers.
What We Require
- Bachelor’s diploma in Laptop Science, Arithmetic, Physics, or associated fields.
- At the least 5 years of expertise as a scientific software program developer and demonstrated success growing a wide range of software program techniques with duty for evaluation, design, implementation, and deployment duties.
- Expertise in collaborating with analysis scientists to develop novel algorithms, prototype modern scientific software program and transition analysis software program to manufacturing.
- Vital expertise in at the least three of the next areas of scientific computing:
- Numerical linear algebra (dense and sparse matrices)
- Quick Fourier Rework
- Becoming fashions to knowledge
- Statistics
- Information visualization
