Working closely with the Performance Assessment team in the Research to Operations (R2O) program, our team of scientists and software engineers incorporates new verification approaches into the Jive and METplus verification systems, develops displays and dashboards for visualising outputs, and assists others to use these systems.

We are looking for an experienced software engineer to provide technical leadership for the team of software developers who are building, implementing and enhancing the Jive forecast verification system.

They will have highly developed professional skills, and will be experienced in working collaboratively in teams, as well as taking responsibility for the technical quality of critically important operational verification systems.
