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.
