You will join the Scientific Data Group of the Technical Division. We provide the beamlines with a high-rate data acquisition system from cutting edge detectors. We also support online and offline data processing and visualisation pipelines that let users preview the final results of their X-ray scattering, imaging or spectroscopy analyses. We deal with high data rates (GB/s) and “big data” volumes. To strengthen the support we can offer to the beamlines and their users, we are looking for a Beamline Data Scientist to improve the data analysis experience within the MAX IV computing environments.

The successful candidate will contribute to developing and supporting the overall software ecosystem for data analysis within the MAX IV edge-cloud environment while at the same time directly assisting beamlines in developing their own analysis tools and frameworks. This can range from collaborating with the IT infrastructure group to enhance platforms such as JupyterHub, to implementing custom tools and GUIs for specific data processing tasks together with MAX IV scientists. Responsibilities involve building full stack web applications for data access, visualisation, and interpretation. Active engagement in major research software initiatives is encouraged, including contributions via pull requests, publications, and presentations at conferences and workshops.
