Job Description


The Florida Space Institute (FSI) invites applications for a non-tenure earning position as assistant scholar/scientist with a concentration in atmospheric science. The incumbent will participate in Global‐scale Observations of the Limb and Disk (GOLD) science team activities.

Experience with studies of dynamics in the middle to upper atmosphere; two or more years of postdoctoral experience in atmospheric science related to thermosphere, ionosphere, or magnetosphere studies; expertise with remote sensing technologies; expertise with LIDAR technology and science; and expertise with satellite instrumentation.

Special Conditions


Due to the nature of the research performed, U.S. citizenship and the ability to attain security clearance is beneficial, but not required.
