Description of Work :
This position will support our recent excellent faculty hires who are working on cutting edge research in their disciplines, and collaborating across disciplinary boundaries in our systems teams. The incumbent will work with the Holland Computing Center, ITS, Libraries, and external Federal partners (e.g., Agricultural Research Service, USDA) to initiate the development of agricultural data architecture, configuration, and analytic technologies that will allow our researchers to store (short and long-term), visualize, show workflow, use version control (i.e., keep previous versions), integrate heterogeneous data, capture metadata (that can be expandable), guarantee compatibility between systems, and offer onsite analysis (i.e., avoid downloads).
Recognizing that diversity within a context of inclusivity enhances creativity, innovation, impact, and a sense of belonging, the Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources (IANR) and Agricultural Research Division are committed to creating learning, research, extension programming, and work environments that are inclusive of human diversity. We actively encourage applications from and nominations of individuals from underrepresented groups.
