What is the difference between Senior Science Communication vs Science Writer?

AspectSenior Science CommunicationScience Writer
Required CredentialsAdvanced degree in science or communication, experience in science outreachDegree in journalism, communications, or related field; strong writing skills
Work EnvironmentResearch institutions, science centers, universities, public outreachMedia outlets, publishing companies, online platforms
Employer & Industry UsageUsed in academia, government agencies, science museumsCommon in media, publishing, science journalism

While both roles involve communicating science, Senior Science Communication focuses on strategic outreach and public engagement, often within institutions. Science Writers primarily produce articles, reports, and content for media outlets. The roles overlap in communication skills but differ in scope and environment.

Job description

Overview
Lynker Corporation is a leading provider of innovative solutions in weather and climate science. With a commitment to excellence and a passion for innovation, Lynker leverages cutting-edge technologies and scientific expertise to support the creation and delivery of improved operational weather forecasts.
As part of our ongoing growth and expansion, we are seeking a dynamic and experienced Senior Wetlands Scientist to join our growing team.
Mapping wetlands accurately across large areas is hard, and the maps are only as trustworthy as the validation behind them. We are hiring a Senior Wetland Scientist to lead that work, combining wetland science, remote sensing, and cloud-native geospatial computing to produce defensible wetland products across regional to national extents. The role spans model development, large-area production, validation and uncertainty, and technical leadership.
You will sit close to our modeling and geospatial teams, turning wetlands science into methods that run reliably over large areas. The strongest candidates pair wetland and ecological expertise with strong geospatial and coding skills, and are comfortable moving between the underlying science, the data pipeline, and validation of the resulting maps.
Responsibilities
Duties of the Senior Wetlands Scientist will include the following:
  • Mapping at scale: produce, improve, and maintain versioned wetland maps across large regional to national extents.
  • Cloud-native geospatial: build and run mapping and modeling workflows using cloud-native geospatial tools, formats, and storage.
  • Wetland modeling: implement, adapt, and improve existing and new models for wetland potential and for wetland boundary and extent.
  • Data integration: integrate LiDAR-derived elevation, hydrology, imagery, soils, and existing wetland inventories into reproducible modeling pipelines.
  • Validation & QA: design validation against reference data, quantify uncertainty, and quality-control wetland maps for accuracy and consistency.
  • Communication: document methods and results, contribute to reports and proposals, and partner with the Platform, Modeling, and Applications teams that scale and serve your products.

Qualifications
The Senior Wetlands Scientist selected should have the following:
  • Master's or PhD in wetland science, ecology, geography, environmental or earth science, hydrology, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
  • Roughly 5+ years of relevant experience, or a PhD plus a few years of relevant work.
  • Demonstrated experience mapping wetlands, land cover, or comparable features at large spatial scale.
  • Hands-on experience with cloud-native geospatial tooling, formats, and workflows.
  • Experience implementing or adapting geospatial or ecological models (wetland potential, habitat, boundary and extent, or comparable).
  • Proficiency in Python and/or R for geospatial analysis, with sound coding and reproducibility practices.

The Ideal Senior Wetlands Scientist will have the following:
  • Experience with wetland potential or probability modeling and with wetland delineation, boundary, and extent methods.
  • Experience applying machine learning to land-cover or wetland classification.
  • Familiarity with national wetland, hydrography, soils, and elevation datasets, and with remote-sensing inputs.
  • Experience with distributed or parallel processing for large-area geospatial work (e.g., cloud batch, Dask, or Google Earth Engine).
  • A record of scientific publication or successful proposal work.
  • Colorado Front Range presence for periodic in-person collaboration.

About Lynker
Lynker is a growing, employee owned business, specializing in professional, scientific and technical services. Our continually expanding team combines scientific expertise with mature, results-driven processes and tools to achieve technically sound, cost effective solutions in hydrology/water sciences, geospatial analysis, information technology, resource management, conservation, and management and business process improvement.

  • Comprehensive healthcare for the employee at no monthly cost
  • Healthcare benefit covers medical, prescription drug, dental, and vision
  • Personal Time Off (PTO) Policy plus paid holidays
  • Highly competitive compensation plan regularly calibrated against industry and location benchmarks
  • 401(k) retirement plan with company-matching
  • Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) - we're all company owners!
  • Flexible spending accounts
  • Employee assistance program (EAP)
  • Short- and long-term disability insurance
  • Life and accident insurance
  • Tuition assistance/Training/Workforce improvement reimbursement per year
  • Spot bonuses for exceptional performance
