POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITION: LOW-FREQUENCY SURVEYS WITH THE MURCHISON
WIDEFIELD ARRAY 

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research associate / fellow
to process and deliver science from a low-frequency survey undertaken
with the Murchison Widefield Array. The position is based at the Curtin
Institute of Radio Astronomy, a node of the International Centre for
Radio Astronomy Research, in Perth, Western Australia. The researcher
will work with project leader Dr Natasha Hurley-Walker and other MWA
science experts at CIRA to continue processing and publishing the
GaLactic and Extragalactic All-sky MWA - eXtended (GLEAM-X) survey. This
builds on the success of the original GLEAM survey and will be the
widest-bandwidth low-frequency survey of the southern sky to date,
producing wide-area images in both continuum and polarisation. 

We seek a candidate with excellent skills in supercomputing, the
organisational capacity to undertake a large survey, and the ability to
deliver science results therefrom. We will offer the three-year
fixed-term position at Academic Level A or B commensurate with the
candidate's skill and experience. Applications close 2nd July. For the
full advertisement and a link to the application portal, see:
