Project background

Scientific Software and Data Management (SSDM) is part of ETH's central IT department.

Your main task, occupying half your time, will be to work on a project at ETH's Cosmology Group. The required skills are Python and an understanding of computational programming and solving numerical systems.

The remainder of your time will be spent on projects in our portfolio. We have projects that are written in Java, Python, C++ and web technologies, so the projects you work on would depend on your additional skills.

The position is initially for a duration of 1 year with the possibility of renewal.
