a world-leading user programme for large-scale structures (neutron reflectometry and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS)).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Description of division</span></strong><b><span lang="EN-US"><br>
</span></b><span lang="EN-US">The Data Management and Software Centre (DMSC) of the European Spallation Source (ESS) is tasked with the mission to assist users of ESS with all their scientific computing needs. This includes experimental control, data curation,
reduction and analysis, modelling and simulations, user office software and associated hardware and infrastructure. ESS has two locations, DMSC located in Copenhagen, Denmark, and with experimental facilities and the head quarter located in Lund, Sweden.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Description of main responsibilities</span></strong><b><br>
</b>As an instrument data scientist for neutron reflectometry and large-scale structures at the European Spallation Source you will act as an interface between DMSC and one or more instrument teams for reflectometry and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS).
This is a new type of position at ESS and therefore the candidate has an opportunity to shape the role in collaboration with other ESS instrument data scientists and corresponding stakeholders. However, the role as instrument data scientist will encompass
the following tasks:<o:p></o:p></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US">Project / product managing the deliverables from DMSC to the instrument teams in order to maximize the scientific impact from those instruments.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US">Working with your colleagues at DMSC and the instrument team(s) on providing the best user experience.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US">Co-designing and co-developing data processing and analysis software with your colleagues at DMSC using requirements from users and instrument team(s) across all domains and techniques.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US">Providing direct support (including acting as local contact) to the experimental programme assisting users with analysis of their data once the instruments have entered the ESS user programme.<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US">Co-creating with instrument teams a world leading user programme for large-scale structures<o:p></o:p></span></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1">
<span lang="EN-US">Advancing the domain of neutron reflectometry with cutting edge data science and data analysis methods<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
<p>Focus will initially be on ensuring that scientific user software is ready for operation of the instruments. The instrument data scientist will therefore play a central role during commissioning of the instruments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The candidate will become a member of the Data Reduction, Analysis, and Modelling (DRAM) group at DMSC and report to the corresponding Group Leader, but is at the same time expected to be an active member of the relevant instrument teams.
<span class="inline-comment-marker">For this reason, the instrument data scientist is expected to spend significant time in both Copenhagen and Lund.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The instrument data scientist is strongly encouraged to maintain an active research profile in the domain of neutron reflectometry, while keeping the task of enabling users to do world leading science a first priority.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The instruments that currently are being constructed for neutron reflectometry is ESTIA, which has full polarization analysis, and LoKI for SANS. These will later on be supplemented with the liquids reflectometer FREIA and the SANS instrument SKADI. For
more information about the ESS instruments see the ESS home page at <a href="https://www.europeanspallationsource.se/">
https://www.ess.eu</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Qualifications</span></strong><b><br>
</b>For this position it is essential that the candidate has experience with neutron reflectometry experiments including associated data processing, analysis, and modelling. To best complement current skills in the group and to best support ESTIA, we are particularly
interested in an individual with experience and interest in hard condensed matter. Moreover, the candidate should have an interest in utilizing those skills for helping users at the ESS. Python is used extensively at ESS for data processing and the candidate
should therefore be able to become proficient in using Python for solving scientific problems.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>It is desirable (but not a requirement) if the candidate also have some of the following skills:<o:p></o:p></p>
