Ocean Associates is seeking a Scientific Programmer to support NOAA Fisheries. OAI is a Virginia corporation established in 2003 that provides consulting and technical services to the U.S. government, non-governmental organizations, international organizations, and the private sector. We specialize in scientific program and project management, strategic planning, professional and technical services, and stakeholder engagement, supporting government contracts.
This position will provide programming and data analysis services required by the Offshore Wind and Ecology Branch (OWEB) of NOAA’s Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC). The OWEB works to determine how offshore wind (OSW) development projects affect protected species, fisheries, marine habitats, and fishing communities. The OWEB provides data and expert support for marine spatial planning of NOAA’s trust resources in the Greater Atlantic Region related to OSW projects for marine resource managers (including fisheries managers, protected species managers, critical habitat assessments, and habitat conservation), stakeholders, and scientific partners. The Scientific Programmer will work closely with the offshore wind scientific staff at the Northeast Fisheries Science Center and our regional partners to ensure the successful completion of activities.
The Scientific Programmer will collect, synthesize, and provide environmental and ecological data and analyses on National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) trust resources and fisheries utilization to inform offshore wind (OSW) siting decisions and subsequent related analyses in the Greater Atlantic Region. The Scientific Programmer will also provide modeling support and identify, develop, maintain, and update needed datasets, maps, and geospatial tools for OSW lease areas currently under environmental review, OSW-related permitting (e.g., cable routing), and for continued planning or adaptive management for OSW projects in coordination with NMFS and partners on NMFS trust resources and fisheries utilization. The Scientific Programmer will build tools to facilitate data access and analysis, including R Shiny dashboards. Duties will also include preparing metadata and ensuring all data meet the Public Access to Research Results (PARR) requirements. To accomplish these goals, the Scientific Programmer will leverage existing data workflows and sources, as well as contribute to new tools to facilitate data storage, access, and analysis.
