Descripción
**Context And Mission

The Earth Sciences Department of Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC-ES) led by Prof Francisco Doblas-Reyes develops, among other research tools, global climate models to perform a range of climate experiments at frontier (storm and eddy-resolving) spatial resolutions.

The Department is looking for a research engineer or scientist to assist in the development of the high-resolution global simulations with the IFS/NEMO climate model.

Applicants with a more scientific background are also encouraged.

**Key Duties

  • Modify and test several model features to ensure that the IFS-NEMOSI3 model is suitable to produce physically sound climate simulations
  • Collaborate with members of the Earth Sciences Department to test the latest model and workflow developments, debug potential model errors, and ensure that the experiments are performed efficiently
  • Conduct and evaluate numerical simulations for model tuning and spinup Contribute to the production of the final Destination Earth and EERIE experiments and their assessment from a physical point of view
**Requirements

  • Education
  • Bachelor degree in computer sciences, applied mathematics or physics, or any related discipline
  • A PhD and work experience in meteorology/oceanography will be considered an asset
  • Essential Knowledge and Professional Experience
  • Advanced knowledge in highlevel computer languages (especially FORTRAN) and experience with UNIX/LINUX environments, scripting languages (bash, Python) and debugging tools.
  • Experience working with numerical models of ocean, atmosphere and other Earth system components.
  • Experience in using HPC architectures and parallel programming will be valued.
  • Experience with version control systems (e.g., SVN or Git) will be valued.
  • Competences
  • Reliable and constructive interpersonal skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
