POSITION SUMMARY Applications are invited for scientists at all levels of seniority at the Center for Computational Mathematics (CCM), in the Flatiron Institute, in all our active areas of research. These include:
(For a full description of CCM research areas and scientific staff, please see our website.) Research and Data Scientists are expected to lead active research programs at the forefront of their fields internationally, including dissemination of results through scientific publications, conferences, and/or software. They also are expected to interact with other researchers in CCM, across the Flatiron Institute, and in the wider scientific community, as well as supervise/mentor postdoctoral fellows and undergraduate/graduate student interns. They are encouraged to participate in and shape the vibrant activities of the institute such as workshops and seminars. They receive a research budget, participate in the selection and review of research staff, software engineers, and postdoctoral fellows within CCM, and have access to the institute's powerful scientific computing resources. Positions will be based, and have a principal office or workspace, at the Simons Foundation's offices in New York City. Depending on levels of experience, posit ions may be at-will or a fixed term appointment. The anticipated start date is between July and October 2023, but is flexible. Tremendous opportunities exist at the intersection of mathematics, computer science, statistics, and their scientific applications, with the lines between theory, algorithm development and software implementation often blurred. Thus a major goal of CCM is to develop the next generation of simulation and analysis methods and to make them available to the scientific community. The center also hosts an array of meetings, workshops and conferences, serving as a focal point for the field internationally. The center currently has about 40 members, and will grow to about 60, including short- and long-term visitors. The Flatiron Institute, located in the heart of New York City, also hosts computational centers for astrophysics, biology, quantum physics, and neuroscience. If you anticipate extensive collaboration with researchers in one of these centers, please indicate this in your research statement. ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS/RESPONSIBILITIES
