Gulf of Maine Research Institute | Web Application Developer | Portland, ME | Full Time
If you like science or the ocean, know technology, and want to use tech to push science forwards, we’re looking for a Web Application Developer at Gulf of Maine Research Institute as part of the Ocean Data Products team.
GMRI is right on the waterfront in Portland Maine, where we work at the intersection of people and the ocean.
For a little detail of what the ODP team does, here’s a little of what I’ve been working  on recently:
- Testing knowledge graph ontologies for a NSF project that is trying to push the domains of scientific modeling forwards
- Developing a citizen science platform designed to support classrooms and projects that need a coverage to prove presence vs absence
- Geeked out with USGS about low cost sensor platforms at the ESIP conference
- Evolving the user focused components of NERACOOS’s interface to the buoys in the Gulf of Maine and beyond to make it more approachable to regular mariners (fishermen, sailors, surfers) than just scientists.
- Prototyping transitioning our primary data service (ERDDAP) for NERACOOS to run on Kubernetes.
Or in the tech stack flavor: AWS, Digital Ocean, Kubernetes, Python, JavaScript, ERDDAP, THREDDS, Django, PostGIS, some flavor of graph database to be decided soon...
If that sounds like your kind of jam, here are some details: <a href=" You can reach out to me akerney at our website if you've got any questions.
