High-resolution global climate modeller

hace 4 meses


Barcelona, España Barcelona Supercomputing Center A tiempo completo
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.

The candidate will first participate in the development of a Climate Digital Twin for Climate Adaptation based on the IFS-NEMO-SI3 global model as part of the BSC contribution to the Destination Earth European initiative to deliver cutting-edge climate simulations of unprecedented accuracy. The candidate will later contribute to the European Project EERIE, where a global eddy-resolving version of IFS-NEMO-SI3 will be used to investigate whether and how ocean mesoscale interactions (never resolved before at coupled global scales) provide a new understanding of future climate change .
Key Duties
  • Modify and test several model features to ensure that the IFS-NEMO-SI3 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 spin-up
  • 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 high-level 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 SVN or Git) will be valued.
  • Competences
    • Reliable and constructive interpersonal skills
    • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
    • Ability to take initiatives, prioritise and work under set deadlines
    • Ability to work both independently and within a team
    • Fluency in English

Conditions
  • The position will be located at BSC within the Earth Sciences Department
  • We offer a full-time contract a good working environment, a highly stimulating environment with state-of-the-art infrastructure, flexible working hours, extensive training plan, restaurant tickets, private health insurance, support to the relocation procedures
  • Duration: Open-ended contract due to technical and scientific activities linked to the project and budget duration
  • Holidays: 23 paid vacation days plus 24th and 31st of December per our collective agreement
  • Salary: we offer a competitive salary commensurate with the qualifications and experience of the candidate and according to the cost of living in Barcelona
  • Starting date: ASAP
