An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Software Engineer Lead for the Green Algorithms Initiative in the Department of Public Health and Primary Care, one of Europe's leading academic departments of population health sciences. As the Software Engineer Lead, you will be responsible for: The development, dissemination and maintenance of the existing tools as well as the design of new emerging tools related to the group's activities. In particular, you will take lead on the development of the upcoming Green Algorithms Dashboard for HPC and on the continuing improvement of the online calculator, ensuring that it meets open source and sustainability development best practices. The development work on the architecture (e.g. databases, services, computational tools), user-interface (website, API), and related software tooling. The Green Algorithms Initiative ( http://www.green-algorithms.org/ ), led by Dr Loïc Lannelongue, is a world-leading project in the field of green computing focusing on quantifying and reducing the environmental impacts of computational science through open-source resources. The tools and frameworks developed and maintained by the group are used internationally and include the popular Green Algorithms online calculator, server-specific monitoring tools and the GREENER Principles for Environmentally Sustainable Computational Science. The Green Algorithms Initiative has received both nominations and awards for its contributions to environmentally sustainable research (e.g. HDR-UK Impact Award). You will work in close conjunction with the senior scientists in the Green Algorithms Initiative (including Dr Loïc Lannelongue and Professor Michael Inouye) as well as our team of expert computational scientists, HPC support teams in collaborating institutions, Research Software Engineers, and users to help deliver the Green Algorithms tools, a resource with real scientific and sustainability impacts and a variety of applications across scientific fields. The preferred candidates will be flexible and independent to learn new languages and find the right tool for the right problem, in order to propose solutions to the overall project lead for eventual implementation.
