UW faculty and staff also enjoy outstanding benefits, professional growth opportunities and unique resources in an environment noted for diversity, intellectual excitement, artistic pursuits and natural beauty.
The Pacific Northwest Seismic Network (PNSN) at the University of Washington (UW) in Seattle has an excellent opportunity for a Seismic Analyst. This is an in-person or hybrid (in-person and telework) position.
The PNSN monitors earthquakes in Washington and Oregon for public safety and scientific research. We operate 600+ remote seismic stations throughout the region. Data from these remote sites are continuously transmitted to the UW. The data are processed through several software applications to provide a series of earthquake information products.
As a seismic analyst, you will play a key role in producing PNSN’s event catalog. Together with the lead seismic analyst, you will review, relocate, and categorize every single seismic event that the automatic algorithms detect. In addition, as part of a small team of scientists, software engineers, and computer specialists you will help maintain and implement other products and ensure that they are successfully sent to the ANSS Comprehensive Catalog and our public-facing website. The ideal candidate has excellent computer scripting and python programming skills.
The PNSN’s values emphasize a respectful inclusive environment, the open sharing of different perspectives, employee flexibility, and a commitment to serving Washington and Oregon with strong applied science. Professional development is expected and encouraged.
