Job description

ADS is seeking a Senior Support Scientist to support the Cryosphere/ Geosphere Sphere in the Earth Science Division (ESD) of NASA's Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters (HQ).

The principal responsibility of this position is to serve as a member of the Geosphere team, supporting the program management and strategic planning responsibilities of the Geosphere. This position will add to the Geosphere team at NASA HQ.

The successful candidate will support the Geosphere, and in some cases take a primary role in:

  • Developing solicitations for research in the areas covered by the Geosphere.
  • Conducting the evaluation of proposals by organizing and implementing peer review panels, as well as reporting the results to NASA management.
  • Monitoring the performance of researchers who are selected for funding.
  • Formulating and implementing activities to foster growth and scientific impact of the NASA solid-Earth community (e.g., workshops, airborne science campaigns).
  • Engaging with other Earth-science offices (e.g., Earth Action, Technology, Flight) and NASA research programs to bring an ESI perspective to cross-divisional/interdisciplinary work.
  • Engaging with key interagency partners (e.g., USGS, NSF, NOAA) to advance ESI objectives.
  • Representing Geosphere on HQ or external working groups and committees.
  • Assisting in completing Sphere reporting requirements of research activities.
  • Interacting closely with the ESD research communities in the US and abroad.

Requirements

A competitive candidate will have:

  • A Ph.D. or equivalent experience in geophysics or a closely related discipline, plus at least ten years of research or science management experience.
  • Strong organizational and project management skills and the ability to track multiple tasks.
  • Strong written and verbal communications skills -- the individual must be able to formulate project level plans/documentation and presentations and attend, organize, and host meetings with senior members of the Earth Science community.

Preferred experience:

  • Demonstrated experience in imaging spectroscopy science and engineering with applications to studies of the solid Earth.
  • Demonstrated experience in integrating multiple types of remote sensing data with applications to studies of the solid Earth.
  • Demonstrated experience in using both airborne and satellite remote sensing with applications to studies of the solid Earth.
