    • Analyze data stored in HDF5 format using python, matplotlib, numpy, and scipy
    • Troubleshoot complex, parallel simulation frameworks
    • Develop validation methods for comparing GQL simulations with wind tunnel data
    • Communicate results at national conferences, including the American Physical Society’s Division of Fluid Dynamics annual meeting
    • Participate in inter-collaboration meetings, including travel to Durham, NH and Providence, RI


    Minimum Qualifications:

    Education

    PhD in atmospheric science, oceanography, physics, applied mathematics, or a related field required.

    Experience

    Expertise in computational fluid dynamics.
