Hello OCAML-list members,
The American Museum of Natural History (www.amnh.org) seeks to fill several positions
at various levels for a two-year project for application and systems development for the
study of emerging infectious disease. One position (the first in the list), is for an
Ocaml programmer which (I hope), might be of direct interest for some of you. The
others are CS related, so I'm leaving them as these could be of your interest too.
Programmer: Computer Science or engineering BS or MS degree, with at least 3 years of
experience in scientific computation. Knowledge of at least one functional language
(ML, Lisp, Haskell) is required, preferably Ocaml or ML and the C language. Experience
in parallel computing desirable. Experience in UNIX/LINUX environments necessary.
Algorithm Scientist: Ph.D. in computational science to perform research
and
implementation of algorithms for full-genome phylogenetic and biogeographic analysis.
Experience in algorithm design , especially combinatorial optimization problems
crucial. Experience in string and parallel algorithms, and computational biology,
desired. Programming skills for prototyping
necessary.
Systems Scientist: Ph.D. in computational science to perform R&D of a computational
system to integrate results of whole genome phylogenetic analysis with geographic and
phenotypic data. Experience in data modeling and development of middleware and user
interfaces for large-scale data management across diverse research sites is crucial.
Experience in geographic information systems important, programming skills in Java
preferred.
Systems Manager: Ph.D. with five years experience in scientific computing, hardware,
and software maintenance. Strategic planning, specification and purchasing of
hardware, grant writing, training of personnel are key skills.
