Please permit me to share the following job postings.
Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to share the following exciting opportunities to join the
dynamic team at the UWI Seismic Research Centre (SRC). Grateful if you
could share with your networks.
1. *Vacancy for Research Fellow - Seismologist:*
This role offers the chance to work with a multidisciplinary team of
seismic analysts, earth scientists, and engineers, contributing to
cutting-edge real-time earthquake and volcanic surveillance in the
Eastern Caribbean. The Seismologist will be expected to develop a
research program, in collaboration with other staff members, with the
overall aim of improving the understanding of tectonic and volcanic
processes, as well as the hazards associated with the regional
geodynamic processes. The nature of this research will depend on the
individual's research background and experience. He/She will maintain
the regional, instrumental, earthquake catalogue ensuring its
completeness going forward and backward in time. He/She will provide
oversight to the technical seismology staff as well as coordinate and
contribute to their ongoing training and development. He/She would
interpret seismic data and report to the SRC Director regularly,
particularly with regard to the necessity for and timeliness of warnings
to be provided to SRC contributing territories. He/She would play a
lead role in the operations, maintenance and further development of
seismological data acquisition and processing tools that underpins SRC’s
monitoring and research functions (e.g., Seiscomp, Python programming).
The individual will work with other regional risk reduction stakeholders
to strengthen capacity building for the production and application of
earthquake and volcanic hazard/risk assessment tools in a more
consistent manner. He/She will also be expected to assist with the
day-to-day operations of the SRC, as the need arises.

Application Procedure <https://sta.uwi.edu/jobs/details.asp?view=&id=3002>
The application deadline has been extended to: February 16 2025.
2. *Vacancy for **Instrumentation Engineer:*
This position offers a unique chance to work alongside a talented team
of earth scientists, data analysts, electronics technicians, and ICT
professionals to advance geophysical monitoring and surveillance in the
Eastern Caribbean. He/She will play a lead role in the operations,
maintenance and continuous development of the geophysical monitoring
network. This will include design, development, testing, analysis, and
modification of electronic hardware and software that will enable
continuous data communications between computer-based instrumentation
and data acquisition computers via programmable digital telemetry.
He/She will also be expected to work with vendors, manufacturers,
contractors, service providers and local personnel in establishing and
maintaining stations. In addition, he/she will participate in the SRC’s
scientist-on-duty rotation and assist with the day-to-day operations of
the SRC as the need arises.
This role is ideal for a hands-on engineer eager to apply advanced
technological solutions to real-world challenges in seismology and
geophysics, making a tangible impact in the region.
Further details can be found at the link:
Application Procedure <https://sta.uwi.edu/jobs/details.asp?view=&id=3040>
The application deadline is February 23 2025.
With thanks,
