position: Senior engineer / scientific programmer
Centre of Mathematics for Applications (CMA) was recently funded
as a 'Centre of Excellence' by the Research Council of Norway. CMA
is one of three such centres at the University of Oslo.
The departments of Informatics, Mathematics, Physics and the Institute
of Theoretical Astrophysics are involved, with collaboration from
SINTEF Applied Mathematics. There will also be participants (centre
members) from the universities in Bergen and Trondheim. Read more
about CMA here.
We hereby invite applications for
a position as senior engineer / scientific programmer
(See Norwegian version here.)
- The position is available from August 1, 2003.
- Applications with all necessary enclosures must be received
by June 3, 2003.
- Please include names of persons who can be contacted for references.
- Relevant applicants will be contacted for an interview.
- Salary at scale of pay 54-64 (p.t. NOK 368.800 - 443.000), depending
on qualifications.
The position belongs to the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural
Sciences / The Department of Informatics at the University of Oslo.
Within the lifespan of CMA the working place is in CMA. Thereafter
the postion will be transferred to the technical staff of the Department
of Informatics.
The main vision of CMA is to create a national research centre
in mathematics where top class scientists from different areas can
work together with a joint perspective and common goals. The main
focus will be on mathematics motivated from applications, with emphasis
on problems arising from modern scientific computing. The activity
in the centre will be built upon 4 different research areas: geometry,
stochastic analysis, differential equations and applications in
the physical sciences (mainly within astrophysics and computational
quantum mechanics). The centre will specifically focus on research
activities on the boundaries and intersections of these areas.
The scientific programmer will support and provide the scientific
staff with implementations and visualizations. Applicants must demonstrate
a broad experience in mathematical modeling using modern IT-systems
with tools of advanced software and programming. Furthermore, preference
will be given to applicants with scientific experience within the
relevant research fields of CMA.
