Candidates are expected to have experience using the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), and have a solid background in programming in a variety of languages. Individuals should be creative, organized, motivated, have excellent communication skills, and able to work well as part of a group. Annual salary is $50,000. Review of the applications will begin immediately, and proceed until the position is filled.
