Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory ⚛ Berkeley, CA
Web Developer | full-time or part-time
Berkeley Lab is looking for a talented web developer who will work on building powerful web-based tools for materials scientists on the Materials Project team (see materialsproject.org). We use millions of CPU-hours a year to compute the properties of advanced new materials, and disseminate the information with web interfaces and APIs.
This is a great opportunity for a developer with an interest in science and energy-related innovation. You'll work with a very small team of scientists and engineers and will have a major impact on any aspect of the project that interests you — from application architecture to data visualization.
A successful applicant will have experience in:
   ▪   HTML (HTML5 desirable) / CSS3

   ▪   Python and Django (or similar framework)

   ▪   Javascript — experience with Backbone.js, 
       CoffeeScript, and Require.js is highly relevant

   ▪   Web services technologies and REST

   ▪   Information visualization — knowledge of javascript
       graphing libraries such as d3 or HighCharts and   
       understanding of information visualization techniques
       highly relevant

   ▪   MVC-style development

   ▪   Writing unit-tests for client side applications

   ▪   Unix environments 

   ▪   User interface design principles
