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.

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.
