Company / Organization: I.M. Systems Group, Inc.
Type: Full-time
City: College Park, MD
Description:
Various Scientist, Analyst, Engineer and Product Developer Positions College Park, MD I.M. Systems Group, Inc. (IMSG) www.imsg.com, leading a Scientific and Technical Support Team (IMSG Team, consisting of IMSG, Inc. and subcontracting companies) is looking for qualified scientists, analysts, software/system engineers, and product developers to strengthen our existing staff team and provide support to the NOAA Research to Operations for Next Generation Global Prediction System (NGGPS) program. NOAA/NWS leads an effort in continued advancement of operational global prediction capabilities, including migration to next-generation supercomputing, and the development of the NGGPS. The overall effort is to accelerate improvements in the nation's environmental prediction capabilities by developing environmental numerical weather predictions to longer time scales and multiple coupled regimes. This shall be accomplished through improved coupling between component models such as atmosphere, ocean, land surface, ice, and coastal prediction systems. The overall intent of this program is to enhance numerical weather prediction guidance, to unify operational systems under a single framework in order to more easily share common structures/ components and to expedite interoperability. We are working in an applied science and R&D environment monitored or led by U.S. government scientists, managers, and principle investigators, and working along with other U.S. government, research institutes, and private industry staff. These positions are located at the NOAA Center for Weather and Climate Prediction (NCWCP) building in College Park, Maryland. Actual hiring of candidates will be after mid-May 2015, pending the potential Task Order award to IMSG. The scope of work mainly supports NOAA NCEP EMC in the following areas: 1. Technical support for the NOAA Environmental Modeling System (NEMS) common superstructure development - accelerate NEMS development and operational implementation. The development shall include prototyping for a fully coupled system with standardized interfaces for atmospheric, ocean, ice, waves, and land. 2. Upgrade of Infrastructure at NCEP/EMC - provide technical and software engineering support to improve software architecture and system engineering to accelerate infrastructure upgrades. 3. Scientific research and development for upgrade of modeling components and data assimilation techniques - provide scientific research and development support and gap mitigation for overall unified global modeling approach including coupled modeling and coupled components such as ocean, wave, sea ice, and atmosphere through NEMS framework.
