EUROPEAN SYNCHROTRON RADIATION FACILITY
INSTALLATION EUROPEENNE DE RAYONNEMENT SYNCHROTRON

 

The ESRF is a multinational research institute, situated in Grenoble, France and financed by 20 countries mostly European. It operates a powerful synchrotron X-ray source with some 30 beamlines (instruments) covering a wide range of scientific research in fields such as biology and medicine, chemistry, earth and environmental sciences, materials and surface science, and physics. The ESRF employs about 600 staff and is organized as a French société civil.


Within the Instrumentation Services and Development Division, the Software Group is now seeking to recruit a:

Software Developer (m/f)

permanent contract

THE FUNCTION

The ESRF is in the process of a major upgrade of the accelerator source and of several beamlines. In particular, the Upgrade Programme has created a heavy demand for data visualisation and analysis due to the massive data flow coming from the new detectors. The next generation of experiments will rely on both advanced parallelised algorithms for data analysis and high performance tools for data visualization.

You will join the Data Analysis Unit in the Software Group of the ISDD and will develop software for data analysis and visualization. You will be expected to:

  • develop and maintain software and graphical user interfaces for visualizing scientific data
  • help develop a long term strategy for the visualization and analysis of data (online and offline)
  • contribute to the general effort of adapting existing software and developing new solutions for data analysis

You will need to be able to understand data analysis requirements and propose working solutions.

 

QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE

The candidate should have a higher university degree (Master, MSc, DESS, Diplom, Diploma, Ingeniera Superior, Licenciatura, Laurea or equivalent) in Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Bioinformatics, Engineering or related areas. Applicants must have at least 3 years of experience in scientific programming in the fields of data analysis and visualisation.

The candidate must have good knowledge of OpenGL and the OpenGL Shading Language or similar visualisation libraries. Experience in data analysis, especially of large datasets is highly desirable, particularly using e.g. OpenCL, CUDA. Knowledge of one high level programming language (Python, Matlab, ...), a high-level graphics library (VTK ,...) and one low level language (C, C++, ...) will be considered assets in addition to competence in using development tools for compilation, distribution and code management. Proven contributions to open source projects will also be appreciated.

The successful candidate should be able to work independently as well as in multidisciplinary teams. Good English communication and presentation skills are required.

Further information on the post can be obtained from Andy Götz (andy.g...@esrf.fr) and/or Claudio Ferrero (ferr...@esrf.fr).
