Description :

The University of Nottingham’s Digital Research Service (DRS) is one of the UKs largest Research Software Engineering teams and we have a new exciting role for a graduate to come and develop their expertise across various nationally important projects. DRS is a dedicated core facility of Research Software Engineers (RSE) that supports the entire research community in Nottingham by providing expertise and capabilities in the areas of Data Analytics/Data Science, Bioinformatics and Software Development (including High Performance Computing). Our team of 20 interdisciplinary experts make the DRS one of the UK’s largest RSE groups. 

The DRS has a proven track record of enabling, improving and impacting research on projects ranging from small proof ­of ­concept studies with a handful of data points to large national data infrastructure projects such as the UKCRC Tissue Directory and Coordination Centre. Over the course of the academic year 2018/2019, the DRS team have successfully completed over 60 projects from a wide range of research domains, including research projects in collaboration with industry partners. Furthermore, the expertise within the DRS has attracted commercial partnerships with the NHS, the local government and businesses in finance, advertising, social housing, transportation and retail. The DRS offers unrivalled exposure to commercial and research projects from different domains, allowing team members to acquire a diverse set of project experience in a relatively short amount of time. 

The successful candidate for this role will be given training opportunities to learn enterprise level software development skills. We are looking for the candidate to have a good grounding in software development methods and an eagerness to develop, rather than a developer with a specific skillset.  

This full time post will be offered on a fixed term contract for a period of 12 months. Job share arrangements may be considered.

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Dr Phil Quinlan, email philip.quinlan@nottingham.ac.uk. Please note that applications sent directly to this email address will not be accepted.

Closing Date: 29 May 2020
