The British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC), part of the National Oceanography Centre, manages UK ocean science data through a sophisticated network of software systems, designed and developed by our team of in-house research software engineers.
We also support many European & international projects, amongst which is MOCCA – Monitoring the Oceans and Climate Change with Argo – a 5 year project to deploy 150 Argo floats at locations around the globe that will monitor sea temperature and salinity.
To help us meet the MOCCA project deliverables, we’re looking for a software developer with strong Python skills to join the team for 12 months, the primary goal being development of a Python quality-control tool for Argo float data, based on existing MATLAB code.
As the role is fixed term for 12 months, we’re looking for a candidate who’s able to learn quickly, and not afraid to ask plenty of questions, but don’t worry, you won’t be on your own; there will be support and guidance from the BODC software development team, as well as the Argo team who are based onsite.
Minimum Requirements:
1. Strong skills in Python.
2. Some knowledge of MATLAB.
3. Ability to review existing code and understand how it works.
