at the Earth System Research Lab (ESRL), Global Systems Division (GSD) in Boulder, CO.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",serif;color:#555555">The Weather Information System Evolution (WISE) section within GSD develops weather-related software, systems, and associated tools used by numerous governmental agencies (domestic and international).
A primary focus of WISE is developing improvements to the Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System (AWIPS) II, a computer system used by the National Weather Service (NWS) around the country. This system consists of software written primarily in Java
and Python code. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in;line-height:18.0pt;background:#FBFBFB;box-sizing: border-box;font-size:1rem">
<span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",serif;color:#555555">One key development effort by WISE is the creation of Hazard Services. Hazard Services is a multi-year effort, and one foundational aspect of the program is to combine the capabilities of AWIPS
WarnGen, Graphical Hazard Generator, and RiverPro into a single application. Currently, these critical applications allow NWS forecasters to produce hazard watch, warning, and advisory products and deliver various services. Other development areas for Hazard
Services have, or will soon, include probabilistic hazard information, NWS National Center applications, and potential applications for international agencies. All three of these efforts require testing and evaluation of the software and associated workflows.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-family:"Helvetica Neue",serif;color:#555555">WISE is seeking a meteorologist to serve as a Software Evaluation Lead for several development teams within the Section. While the focus will be on testing and evaluating new functionality in Hazard
Services on the AWIPS II platform, testing and evaluations on other systems could also be required. This position will be a critical component of the Hazard Services team, and will inform the software design and development based on testing and evaluation
activities. Close interaction with user groups (e.g., operational forecasters, hydrologists, NWS Management, etc.), as well as software developers from various agencies such as GSD, NWS, and Raytheon, Inc. will be essential. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
