Software Engineer

The “Novel Materials Discovery Center of Excellence (NoMaD CoE)” (http://nomad-coe.eu) is presently being established by 8 leading scientific institutions and 4 supercomputing centers. It relies, for example, on the “NoMaD Repository” (http://nomad-repository.eu) as a base, hosting already an enormous amount of materials data. For a brief summary, see the movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-nmRSH4NQM
We are looking for a software engineer (MA level) who is interested in interdisciplinary work in the areas of materials science, database systems, and data analytics. He/She will work on the overall NoMaD infrastructure. As a first step, he/she will focus on the improvement and the extension of the current NoMaD Repository. Later, he/she will be involved in the challenges related to the NoMaD CoE, at the intersection between materials science and computer science (Big Data, data management). The initial contract will be for 2 years, extension will be possible.
The work requires experience in relational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL) and a solid background in programming languages and tools, like Java, Scala, Python, or Sqlalchemy. Knowledge in data-analytics platforms such as Apache Flink is appreciated. The candidate should be a team worker/player with good interaction skills, preferably with some background in physics / materials science.
If you want to contribute to building a unique infrastructure for handling a large amount of scientific data and enabling novel analyses on it, please send your application documents to jobs@NoMaD-CoE.eu.
