Job Summary
Ship Operations is seeking a Scientific Data Systems Specialist.
This is a full-time (1.00 FTE), 12-month, professional faculty
position.
CORIOLIX (Cruise Observations Real-time Interface & Open Live
Information eXchange) is a software package that has been in
development since 2015 by a small team under the OSU Regional Class
Research Vessel (RCRV) Program to support the science data needs of
oceanographic research vessels. CORIOLIX provides real-time data
access and visualization, on both ship and shore, for a suite of
oceanographic and meteorological sensors. It also provides tools to
support inventory tracking, situational awareness, data processing,
quality assessment, event logging, and customized alerts. The
software is designed to meet the needs of scientists, marine
technicians, sensor specialists, and educators. Interest in
CORIOLIX has expanded beyond the program's three RCRVs to other
research vessels (academic and government; domestic and
international) and even to terrestrial stations.
This position serves the needs created by transitioning the
CORIOLIX system into production on numerous oceanographic research
vessels and other platforms, including: software and hardware
installation, working with field technicians to incorporate sensor
data feeds, and end-user training. In addition, the position
supports continued software development, software and hardware
maintenance, end-user support, and security tasks.
