Primary responsibility will be to assist in development of a model-based population genomics pipeline, and development of a graphical front-end to be hosted in the Galaxy Project platform. This position is funded by an NSF grant to Dr. Arun Sethuraman (CSU San Marcos - www.arunsethuraman.weebly.com) and Dr. Jody Hey (Temple University - https://bio.cst.temple.edu/~hey/) and will have ample opportunities for collaborative development of statistical and evolutionary genetic applications across both labs. The position will be based out of CSUSM (San Marcos, California). This work requires experience in C/C++, Perl/Python/Shell across Unix and Windows platforms. Experience with development of applications for the Galaxy Project is desired. Experience with software programming best practices, including test automation (e.x. travis-ci, jenkins.io) and task management (e.x. Jira, waffle.io) will be an added plus. The position is funded for three years, with possibilities for continued funding. The programmer/postdoc will report directly to both PI's and also have the opportunity to train and mentor graduate and undergraduate students (2-3 per year) in scientific programming and software development. Please contact Arun (asethuraman@csusm.edu) with any questions regarding the position.
