4 weeks ago
Applications are invited for the position of Engineering Lead at the Institute of Computing for Climate Science (ICCS). In the face of the present climate crisis, there is pressing need for skilled software engineers to collaborate with climate scientists in delivering a new generation of high-quality, high-performance, and high-assurance models. The Engineering Lead will steer a highly-specialised Research Software Engineering (RSE) team that develop and improve complex scientific applications to enable the research agendas of the associated climate science teams and ICCS. The role holder will work in close synergy with researchers across multiple disciplines to develop research software to tackle problems across a range of subfields within climate science.
ICCS is one of the Schmidt Sciences Virtual Institutes of Scientific Software that are working to accelerate the pace of scientific discovery. The Engineering Lead will work directly with six groups funded as part of Schmidt Sciences' Virtual Earth Systems Research Institute (VESRI) to directly address specific computational and research software needs of climate scientists across an international spread of University-based climate modelling groups and national labs. The team of RSEs that this post will manage also interacts with researchers based at ICCS. Thus, this leadership role provides a unique opportunity to be involved in projects directly connected to climate science but also broader research into supporting climate science through computer science, software engineering, and data science.
The Engineering Lead will collaborate with the Head of Research Software Engineering and the Computer Science lead. The post also includes funding to support travel to conferences and for training activities to support career development as well as an affiliation with Queens' college.
