This post is full time (35 hours per week) and open ended.

Relocation assistance will be provided where appropriate.

We have an exciting opportunity for three Research Software Engineers to provide specialist scientific advice and input across the College in the use and development of research software. The postholder will work with research colleagues to develop rigorous and robust tools for computational research that enable research outcomes and effectively enhance the impact of supported research. Working on a wide range of research projects across all the schools of the College, the postholder will help foster a community of practice for research software engineering, leading on specialist and thematic areas as appropriate.

The post holder will also contribute and develop the provision of training for research staff and students, including occasional delivery of courses covering both introductory computational skills and more advanced specific techniques. The postholder will identify training needs present in the College and, where necessary, develop and deliver appropriate training materials.

To be considered for appointment at Grade 8, recommended candidates must perform the above duties with a higher degree of independence, leadership and responsibility, particularly in relation to leading specialist and/or thematic areas and planning, funding, collaborating and publishing research and play a leading role in the development of the community of practice and broadening outreach efforts for research software engineering best practice, amongst other additional duties.

Informal enquiries about the role are welcomed and should be addressed to Iain Barrass, Iain.Barrass@glasgow.ac.uk.
