Position Overview:
Assistant Project Scientist - A reasonable estimate for this position is $74,100 - $96,600.
Applications are invited for appointment as Assistant Project Scientist at the Department of Land, Air, and Water Resources, the University of California Davis. We are seeking a highly motivated scholar to develop remote sensing algorithms and data-driven machine learning analytics for improving ecosystem resilience and agriculture sustainability. The candidate will be involved with projects on monitoring, modeling, and forecasting eco-hydrological dynamics. Within these overarching project goals, the candidates will have intellectual freedom to develop and pursue the research directions that they find most interesting. The candidate will be based at the Remote Sensing and Ecosystem Change Lab, University of California, Davis. The appointee will also have the opportunity to collaborate with scholars across diverse disciplines from multiple institutes. This position's direct supervisor will be Dr. Yufang Jin (yujin@ucdavis.edu).
The Assistant Project Scientist makes significant and creative contributions to a research or creative project in his/her academic discipline. The appointee possesses the subject matter expertise and the creative energy necessary to function at a high level of competence. The appointee will participate in activities to increase, improve, or upgrade competency. Appointees with Project (e.g., Scientist) titles may engage in University and public service. They do not have teaching responsibilities. Although the Assistant Project Scientist is expected to work independently under the general guidance of an academic member with an independent research program (i.e., Professor, Professional Researcher, Specialist in Cooperative Extension, etc.), he/she is not required to develop an independent research program or reputation. He/she will carry out research or creative programs with supervision by an individual in an academic title that carries with it automatic Principal Investigator status.
