Hi all,

We have two job openings at Unidata. If you could pass along the
announcement below to anyone you think might be interested, I would be most
grateful.

Thanks,

Ethan

UCAR Unidata <https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/about/tour/index.html> has two
openings for scientific software developers to help us support our
community of researchers and educators in their use of the Unidata AWIPS
<https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/awips2/> package. AWIPS (Advanced
Weather Interactive Processing System) is the meteorological display and
analysis package used at the US National Weather Service (NWS) forecast
offices. Unidata AWIPS is a version of the NWS AWIPS that has been modified
and repackaged for non-operational use for research and education.

Scientific software developer - Software Engineer II

As a Unidata AWIPS developer, you will work with a great team at the
Unidata Program Center and an enthusiastic open source community to
support, maintain, and develop the Unidata AWIPS package. Together with the
rest of the Unidata AWIPS team, this position will support, maintain, and
develop the Unidata AWIPS package and the real-time meteorological data
streams available through AWIPS. In addition, the Unidata AWIPS team is
responsible for maintaining and advancing Unidata AWIPS training materials
and teaching Unidata’s AWIPS Training Workshops, locally and periodically
at regional workshops.

Unidata AWIPS Lead Engineer - Software Engineer IV

As technical lead, you will work closely with NOAA/NCEP, NOAA/NWS,
Raytheon, and the broader community to understand and specify Unidata
community needs. You'll collaborate with Unidata management and other
Unidata developers to evaluate the state of the AWIPS project, determine
next steps, and communicate this information to Unidata’s governing
committees and the broader Unidata community.

In addition, you'll work to improve and simplify the Unidata AWIPS
distribution and the installation process for use by the Unidata community,
and contribute to Unidata’s efforts to support the deployment of AWIPS in
other countries and national weather services. Alongside Unidata developers
and community members, you'll identify ways that AWIPS can be modified to
improve usability by University educators and researchers, working with the
NOAA AWIPS development team to document issues and consider solutions that
can be contributed back to the AWIPS codebase.
