Dear all,

We would like to draw your attention to the following job opportunity, which closes at the end of this month:

CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowship in Astrophysical Masers and/or Interstellar Medium Science with GASKAP-OH
(https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/TPFqCGv0oyCJYQkZyTKfKCZ?domain=jobregister.aas.org)

Applications for this position are open to Australian/New Zealand Citizens, Australian Permanent Residents or Australian temporary residents currently residing in Australia and be able to commence in the role by 31 January 2023.

CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years of relevant postdoctoral work experience. The successful candidate will work with incoming data from the GASKAP-OH project, one of nine approved Survey Science Projects on the Australia Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP). GASKAP-OH is observing all four 18-cm ground state lines of hydroxyl (OH) at unprecedented resolution and sensitivity, across the Southern Galactic Plane and Large Magellanic Cloud, and pilot data is in hand. The Fellow will work with the ASKAP software team to finalise the imaging pipeline for the full GASKAP-OH survey, and lead the publication of early science results and data release papers. The key science areas of GASKAP-OH are high-mass star formation masers, evolved stellar masers, and quasi-thermal OH absorption as a probe of interstellar medium physics. The postdoctoral fellow will develop a high-impact science programme in one of these key areas, supported by the expertise of a dispersed project team in Sydney, the SKAO (Perth & Manchester, UK), and many other institutes across the world.

For a full position description including key duties, essential and desirable selection criteria, see the link above.

We welcome applicants from any science area with a strong background in interferometry.
