Descrição

• Support the operational transition of WoFSv1 and the development of WoFS v2 within a cloud environment, focusing on model development, system integration, testing and optimization, and transition of WoFS v1 capabilities into NWS operations. • Harden the cloud-based WoFSv1 system to meet the NWS NCO operational implementation requirements and support its operational transition. • Conduct rigorous model performance evaluations, benchmarking (WoFSv1 vs. WoFSv2), as well as retrospective and real-time simulations to evaluate forecast skills, operational readiness, and overall system value. • Expand the system’s geographical scope by developing the capability to run WoFS outside the CONUS domain. • Develop new WoFS products and metrics for a wider range of high-impact weather hazards beyond severe convection, leveraging forecasters input. • Support the development and testing of the MPAS-JEDI-based WoFS v2 prototype. • Develop a robust, unified end-to-end workflow for the WoFSv2 system, integrating all components: model input preprocessing, data assimilation, forecasting, post-processing, product generation, and visualization. • Establish, maintain, and manage GitHub repositories to support version control and code development.

🎯 Requisitos

• Education: M.S or higher in Atmospheric Science, Meteorology, Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a closely related field. • Advanced knowledge of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) modeling of convective and mesoscale meteorology, ensemble data assimilation, and atmospheric physics and dynamics. • Experience in developing weather forecasting systems built on WRF and MPAS • Experience in software development, code management (e.g., GitHub), and integrating complex modeling and data assimilation components. • Experience assimilating weather radar, satellite, conventional, mesonet and conventional observations with GSI or JEDI to improve initial conditions for rapid-fresh, convection-allowing ensemble short-range weather prediction systems is preferred. • Programming Skills: Strong proficiency in Fortran and modern scripting languages, particularly Python (including scientific packages for AI/ML training and verification). • Experience working within cloud High Performance Computing environments is highly desired. • Communication: Excellent oral and written communication skills with a proven ability to work both independently and within a multi-disciplinary team.
