UC Berkeley | Software Engineer | Berkeley | Full-time, REMOTE, ONSITE, http://berkeley.edu

UC Berkeley is hiring a full-time software engineer to work on a DARPA-funded project to build next-generation methods for social science research [1]. The software engineer will join a team of scientists and engineers building Dallinger [2], an open-source platform that automates the full pipeline of crowd-sourced experimentation, from recruiting participants to managing the resultant data; think lab-on-a-chip or microfluidics, but with people. The position is a 2-year contract, renewable up to 3.5 years, and includes a comprehensive benefits package. The full job ad and instructions for applying can be found at http://bit.ly/2hCqGrj. Remote work is possible.

Our stack is Python, Flask, PostgreSQL, Redis, WebSockets, the SciPy stack, Jupyter notebooks, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, all on Heroku & AWS.

Seems like the buttons to apply are greyed out; is there another way to submit an application?

Looking into this now. If you email me at suchow (@berkeley.edu), I can send you an email with a working link once it's back up.

There's an issue with the posting on the HR site. The university is on academic and administrative holiday until tomorrow, so this won't get fixed today, but should be back up tomorrow. Happy to answer questions here or by email in the meantime.

You probably just need to click the 'return' link and create an account. (Haven't actually tried it tho.)

To save people time: I created an account but it still doesn't seem to work. Now the URL seems to always redirect to the login page.
