Dear all, this is a job advert; application deadline 15 May 2018.
The project and position is about the integration of an existing computational science tool called OOMMF (a simulation of magnetism at the nanoscale) into Jupyter, so that the simulation software can be driven and analysed from the Jupyter Notebook. For this, we have already a Python interface to the simulation software, and are now in the process of tidying up the implementation, improving the data analysis and visualisation aspect within the Notebook, improving the distribution, etc. Please see below for details, and don’t hesitate to contact Marijan Beg or myself with questions. The position position is limited to 6 months, but well paid with an international bonus. The language of work is english. Please get in touch if you like more information on employment details, future options etc. Best wishes, Hans > Join our team > > European XFEL is an international non-profit company located in the Hamburg > area in Germany.
