Observatory of Geneva | Rust/Python Software Engineer | Geneva (Switzerland) | Hybrid Schedule | Full time (2.5 years)
The Observatory of Geneva (World renown in the field of exoplanetology, where Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz detected the first exoplanet, which got them a Nobel Prize in physics in 2019), in collaboration with the CEA (a French public government-funded research organization), will be seeking one talented junior software engineer to develop and improve two scientific codes which will predict the destiny of planetary systems (ESPEM & Posidonius, see https://github.com/marblestation/posidonius).
The successful candidate will:
- Collect the requirements (e.g., the code must run in multiple operating systems, provide pluggable solvers) that will inform future decisions about the design and implementation of a new ESPEM;
- Evaluate the use of more modern programming languages and design patterns (such as Rust and Python 3) for the new ESPEM;
- Design and implement a new version of ESPEM, reproducing the physics present in the current version of ESPEM but following the best coding practices;
- Design building blocks that will allow the implementation of new physics in a modular architecture for the new ESPEM;
- Implementation and integration of new physics in ESPEM and Posidonius;
- Write the corresponding documentation;
- Write unit tests to reach a coverage above 80% of the code;
- Identify optimizations that could help reduce the execution time, particularly certain functionalities that are more computing intense;
- Write visualization routines to easily explore the results.
Entry salary of 85,000 CHF with annual revisions + flexible schedule/environment (up to two days of allowed remote work) + friendly working culture with nice work-life balance + international travels (e.g. CEA headquarters in the Paris region, conferences).
Your contribution will be open source and it will have a world-wide impact in the exoplanet community!
