[ES_JOBS_NET] Computer Programmer, USGS – Woods Hole, MA (Remote Contractor Position)

[Weber, Kathryn M]

Position Description:

The USGS Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center is seeking to contract a programmer, computer scientist, statistician, geographer, or related practitioner to support the operationalization of coastal landscape response models.  The primary focus will be on a model that synthesizes geospatial data and analyzes them in a Bayesian statistical framework.  The successful candidate will work with an interdisciplinary team of scientists that developed and use the model (originally developed in MATLAB and recently migrated to Python), which supports decision making needs for sea-level rise and coastal landscape change at varying times scales and under different climate scenarios.  Recent model and source data updates and expansion of the geographic footprint provides an opportunity to streamline the underlying code and migrate it to an open-source framework, increase processing capacity, and explore new ways to serve the data (e.g. dashboards, etc.).  Are you interested in being part of a dynamic team that creates user-centered products designed to support climate resilience and adaptation planning for our nation’s coast?

  *   Version control (e.g., git)
  *   Scientific programming and data visualization in Python or related software
  *   Ability to work independently and communicate, both written and orally, with project sponsors, stakeholders, users, colleagues on a development team, and management are crucial in the current telework environment

Desired skills:

  *   Experience with C/C++
  *   Experience with C APIs (such as that use by Norsys’s Netica Software)
  *   Knowledge or the desire to develop for cloud-hosted services (i.e., Amazon Web Services)
