General Sciences Corp. (GSC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Science Applications
International Corp. (SAIC), is seeking a lead oceans programmer for its MODIS
support contract at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. MODIS, the Moderate
Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, remotely senses ocean, land, and 
atmospheric parameters and is due to launch in 1998 aboard NASA's Earth 
Observing System (EOS) satellite. The contract is up to 10 years in duration.

The oceans lead will be responsible for overseeing the integration of oceans
algorithms from MODIS scientists into a production environment running at GSFC.
He/she will have considerable interaction with the scientists and their
programmers during the code transfer and integration progress, and will
participate in software design reviews. 

The successful candidate should have 5+ years Fortran and/or C experience
in a UNIX environment. Experience with SGI, Sun or HP workstations, ocean
remote sensing, and the EOS computing environment are all pluses. The candidate
should have 1+ years leading a small (1-2) group of programmers in a schedule-
driven environment, and must possess strong communication skills.

The work is off-site, at the GSC/MODIS facility in Seabrook, MD, approximately
1 mile east of the GSFC main gate. The opening is immediate.
