The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Centers
for Environmental Information (NCEI) has an opening for a permanent
Physical Scientist federal hire in the Solar & Terrestrial Physics (STP)
group. The STP group consists of 40+ world-class scientists and technical
experts in Boulder, CO supporting a broad Sun to Earth product portfolio.
The successful applicant to this Heliophysics Data Steward position will
have a lead role in all of NCEI’s space weather data stewardship services
with a focus on heliospheric data sets from NOAA’s satellite assets in the
solar wind such as DSCOVR, SWFO-L1, and future missions. These data
stewardship services include real-time and historical data oversight,
scientific algorithm development, calibration & validation activities, long
term preservation and access, and interfacing with primary operational and
scientific data users.


The duties and example experience of the STP Heliophysics Steward:

   -

   The steward will have oversight of the entire heliospheric data library
   at NCEI. The steward will also lead the development of long term strategy
   and direction for the heliophysics services within NCEI including
   collaborating with internal and external stakeholders. Demonstrated success
   as a heliophysics project lead is a plus.
   -

   The steward will work independently and with a group of scientific
   experts and code developers to design and implement space weather product
   pipelines, to perform instrument calibration and validation activities, and
   conduct data analysis projects. Research experience in heliophysics or
   space weather data analysis or product development will be beneficial.
   -

   The steward will be a public face for these data, interfacing with
   national and international partners and stakeholders in NOAA, across the
   federal government, the scientific community, and the general public.
   Strong communications skills as demonstrated by publications, reports,
   presentations, and outreach activities are encouraged.


Applications are accepted through USAJOBS; applicants should research best
practices for USAJOBS if you are not familiar with it as the process can be
very different from academic or research applications. Applications will be
accepted for two weeks from Dec 27 until Jan 10. This is a permanent
federal civil servant non-supervisory 1301-ZP-4 position (equivalent to GS
13/14). The duty station for this position is in Boulder CO (where the STP
group is based), Silver Spring MD, Asheville NC, or Stennis MS. If you have
any questions please contact Laurel Rachmeler at Laurel.Rachmeler at noaa.gov.
