We are seeking a Nearshore Oceanography Research Support Engineer to work with several Oregon State University faculty members specializing in nearshore ocean fluid dynamics and sediment transport from the dunes through the surfzone. The successful candidate would support a vibrant research program that spans numerical modeling, remote sensing, and field oceanography. Specifically, work will involve supporting the scientific equipment and resources used by the group (faculty, students, and technicians) including HPC servers, disk arrays, scientific codes and databases, laboratory electronics, and field gear for remote and in-water/on-beach measurements. The successful candidate will also assist in supporting field going and large-scale laboratory experiments. The successful candidate will be supported through external research grants generated by the faculty in the group, and the position is expected to be permanent and long-term.
