About the position

ERT is seeking a Scientific Software Engineer with a background in space weather research and development to join a team of researchers and developers supporting the Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) in Albuquerque, NM. Apply software engineering expertise to scientific research to deliver mission-impact and high-quality software-based decision tools. The position will require working closely with AFRL (Air Force Research Laboratory) ionospheric researchers to develop and model the variability of the ionosphere and quantitively assess its impacts on RF propagation. Directly collaborate with senior researchers to achieve the desired science modeling and implement necessary numerical analysis code in production quality to be transitioned to mission owners in a comprehensive Research-2-Operations (R2O) process. Responsibility will include writing code, running code, testing code reliability, improving and monitoring performance, identifying problems, and interpreting the results for verification purposes in collaboration with the researchers.
