Remote Computational Design information

What is remote computational design?

Remote computational design refers to the use of algorithms, programming, and digital tools to create and optimize design solutions while working from a location outside of a traditional office. Professionals in this field leverage software like Grasshopper, Rhino, or Autodesk Dynamo to automate and enhance the design process for architecture, engineering, or product development. Working remotely, these designers collaborate with teams and clients through digital communication platforms, enabling flexibility and global cooperation.

How do remote computational designers typically collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to ensure project success?

Remote computational designers often work closely with architects, engineers, and software developers through digital collaboration tools such as BIM platforms, cloud-based modeling software, and video conferencing. Regular virtual meetings, shared digital workspaces, and clear documentation help maintain effective communication and project alignment. To overcome challenges posed by physical distance, it's important for remote designers to be proactive in updates, responsive to feedback, and adaptable to different time zones. This collaborative approach ensures that design intents are accurately translated into computational models and that all team members stay informed throughout the project lifecycle.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote computational designer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Computational Designer, you need expertise in computational geometry, algorithm development, and digital modeling, usually backed by a degree in architecture, engineering, or a related field. Proficiency with tools such as Grasshopper, Rhino, Dynamo, and programming languages like Python or C# is essential, along with familiarity with collaboration platforms. Strong problem-solving, communication, and self-management skills help you excel in remote settings and interdisciplinary teams. These skills are crucial for creating innovative design solutions, efficiently collaborating across distances, and meeting complex project requirements.

Job description

The University of Mississippi - fondly referred to as Ole Miss - stands as a premier public research institution with a proud legacy of academic distinction. We are devoted to nurturing a vibrant, inclusive community where every member - student, faculty, and staff - can achieve their fullest potential.

Job Summary:

This position focuses on developing and maintaining computational and geospatial technologies that support agricultural watershed science, water quality assessment, dam-break flood modeling, risk evaluation, and emergency planning. The role emphasizes building decision-support systems and web-based tools, managing large environmental datasets, and enabling data-driven environmental management through advanced modeling, software engineering, and GIS/remote sensing workflows.
It also includes supporting high-performance and Linux-based research computing environments, contributing to scientific communication (journal articles, technical reports, and conference presentations), and collaborating with interdisciplinary teams and stakeholders. In addition, the role supports grant proposal development and may include leading external research efforts.

Job Description:

Essential Duties/ Responsibilities:
  • Develop computational models, software tools, and web-based decision support systems for agricultural watershed processes, water quality assessment, dam-break flood modeling, risk assessment, and emergency planning.
  • Develop and maintain scientific software, geospatial applications, databases, and computational workflows using programming languages such as FORTRAN, C++, Python, R, and related technologies.
  • Design, develop, and maintain geospatial databases, web mapping applications, decision-support systems, and cloud- or cluster-based cyberinfrastructure to support environmental modeling, visualization, and data dissemination.
  • Manage and process large environmental and hydrologic datasets using GIS, remote sensing, spatial databases, and geospatial analysis tools.
  • Support high-performance computing, Linux-based research computing environments, automation workflows, and related computational infrastructure required for environmental modeling and data-intensive research.
  • Participate in and lead external research grant proposal development.
  • Participate in and lead peer-reviewed journal publications, technical reports, and scientific conference presentations.
  • Collaborate with interdisciplinary teams of scientists, engineers, and stakeholders to develop innovative solutions for water resources and environmental management challenges.

Job Responsibilities:

Preferred Experience, Knowledge, Skills & Abilities:
  • Experience in developing computational models, decision-support systems, and web-based tools for hydrologic, hydraulic, watershed, water quality, and environmental management.
  • Experience in scientific programming (e.g., FORTRAN, C++, Python, R), software development, computer systems, and computational infrastructure for environmental and geospatial applications..
  • Experience in geospatial analysis and environmental data management using GIS, remote sensing, spatial databases, and web-based geospatial technologies.
  • Experience with database design, administration, and optimization, including PostgreSQL/PostGIS and large-scale spatial data processing.
  • Experience in developing and deploying geospatial web services, map servers, and cloud- or cluster-based computing environments for environmental modeling and visualization.
  • Experience with Linux system administration, high-performance computing (HPC), virtualization, automation, and research computing infrastructure.
  • Excellent oral, written, and presentation skills (both technical and non-technical).
  • Experience in AIMS and/or DSS-WISE modeling and decision support systems is preferred.
Education:
  • Ph.D. in Computational Hydroscience and Engineering, or a closely related discipline. The PhD degree should be already received or about to be received at the end of the current semester.

* This position is fully or partially funded by external research grants. Continued employment is contingent upon satisfactory performance and the ongoing availability of funding.


** Applicants are requested to attach a Resume/CV with their application.
