About BSC
The Barcelona Supercomputing Center
Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS) is the leading supercomputing center in Spain. It houses MareNostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputers in Europe, was a founding and hosting member of the former European HPC infrastructure PRACE (Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe), and is now hosting entity for EuroHPC JU, the Joint Undertaking that leads largescale investments and HPC provision in Europe. The mission of BSC is to research, develop and manage information technologies in order to facilitate scientific progress. BSC combines HPC service provision and R&D into both computer and computational science (life, earth and engineering sciences) under one roof, and currently has over 800 staff from 55 countries.

We are particularly interested for this role in the strengths and lived experiences of women and underrepresented groups to help us avoid perpetuating biases and oversights in science and IT research.
Context And Mission
The Atmospheric Composition group from the Earth Sciences department at the BSC-CNS is looking for a junior research support engineer willing to work on the development of a Spanish nearreal time greenhouse gas anthropogenic emission monitoring system as part of a large initiative on the "Modernization of observation networks and digitalization of production processes for the development of intelligent meteorological services in the context of climate change" in the framework of the European Recovery, Transformation, and Resilience Plan funded by the European Union
Next Generation EU.
The position will support the development and timely provision of data quantifying the daily emissions of CO2 and CH4 at national and highresolution scale based on nearrealtime activity data and emission factors, as well as the evaluation of the resulting emission estimates against national inventories and other relevant datasets.
The successful applicant will work closely with computational engineers to support the system requirements specification process and workflow development, as well as with providers of emission and activity data to build and produce emission databases suitable for nearreal time monitoring purposes.
Key Duties
Collection, analysis and processing of nearreal time activity data for use in the system development.
Development of spatial and temporal profiles for different emission sectors.
Development and assessment of greenhouse gas emission estimation methodologies.
Analysis, postprocessing, benchmarking and intercomparison of emission results.
Interact with computational engineers for the technical development and deployment of the system

Requirements:

Education
A graduate degree in the physical sciences or engineering (e.g., Chemistry, Meteorology, Physics, Environmental Engineering, Chemical Engineering), Master in Environmental Engineering or similar.
Essential Knowledge and Professional Experience
