Scientific software expert - Scattering - Hiring in process/Finished, not possible to apply

As a member of a forming team you will participate in developing and supporting scientific software projects for data analysis from a new generation light sources. You will challenge high data rates and large data volumes coming from them. Beside other team members you will work closely together with beamline scientists, MAX IV users, industry, HPC experts and with MAX IV partners from the Nordic academia and other large scale facilities.

In supporting data analysis from a wide range of scattering techniques you will learn new methods and master applications of the scientific software. You may also strengthen your competence in project management when coordinating software projects. As a member of the large KITS team you will develop your agile and team work skills and as a part of MAX IV you will cultivate the MAX IV scientific World.

You are not obliged to develop your own research program but you are strongly encouraged to keep and develop your project, collaborations and participate in experiments in MAX IV or other facilities in order to connect software experts and scientists.
