<br>
The Basque Centre for Climate Change (BC3) is building a software task<br>
force to support its strategic activities related to integrated data<br>
science and collaborative, integrated modeling on the semantic web. The<br>
team, which is expected to eventually include three software engineers,<br>
will contribute to the development and maintenance of the *k.LAB software<br>
stack*, a semantic web infrastructure that uses artificial intelligence to<br>
build computational solutions to environment, policy and sustainability<br>
problems. The open source k.LAB software includes client and server<br>
components that connect data and models from distributed repositories,<br>
guided by machine reasoning over a set of shared ontologies. This<br>
technology, based on machine reasoning, machine learning, distributed<br>
computing and high-performance, multi-disciplinary and multi-paradigm<br>
system modeling, is the flagship product of the *Integrated Modelling<br>
Partnership* (<a href="http://www.integratedmodelling.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://www.<wbr>integratedmodelling.org</a>) which is expected to<br>
serve a growing number of worldwide users (from academia, governments, NGOs<br>
and industry) in the years to come.<br>
<br>
<br>
During the first year, you will work closely with the main system architect<br>
and implementer, collaborating to bringing the currently alpha-stage<br>
software to a stable, well-documented and feature-complete version 1.0.<br>
Your responsibilities will be a subset of those identified below, according<br>
to experience and skill set. As the software stabilizes and the team<br>
expands, we expect more specialization of roles, with a potential<br>
redefinition of responsibilities towards roles of coordination and team<br>
leadership.<br>
<br>
<br>
We are seeking candidates with *three professional profiles* dedicated to<br>
different components of the k.LAB technology:<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
1.<br>
<br>
*Back-end developer*: is .. The core components are based on Spring and<br>
the successful candidate will be focusing on REST API, service<br>
implementation, security and …<br>
2.<br>
<br>
*Modeling engine (middleware) developer*:<br>
3.<br>
<br>
*Front-end (Web UI) developer and release engineer*:<br>
<br>
<br>
All candidates will be required to provide a percentage of their time (no<br>
higher than 20%) to provide support for external users and adopters through<br>
online support channels and issue tracking. The following requirements<br>
describe a general profile that could suit all candidates.<br>
<br>
*Key Responsibilities:*<br>
<br>
-<br>
<br>
Collaborate to developing, strengthening and debugging the back-end<br>
and/or the client components of the k.LAB software stack (including a<br>
semantic web node server, a modeling engine, an Eclipse-based modeler IDE<br>
and a web-based interface for end users).<br>
-<br>
<br>
Collaborate to the definition of unit tests and code review policies for<br>
both k.LAB and the associated data/model products.<br>
-<br>
<br>
Participate in all aspects of the development life cycle including<br>
analysis, design, development, documentation, release and deployment.<br>
-<br>
<br>
Communicate and coordinate with both technical and non-technical<br>
stakeholders.<br>
-<br>
<br>
Collaborate to the administration of the core network components of the<br>
k.LAB network in support of active projects (such as ARIES:<br>
<a href="http://aries.integratedmodelling.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://aries.<wbr>integratedmodelling.org</a>).<br>
<br>
*You should have:*<br>
<br>
-<br>
<br>
Strong analytical skills and an ability to learn quickly and to think<br>

issue tracking, continuous development and deployment (BC3 uses the<br>
Atlassian toolchain: Jira, Bamboo, Confluence).<br>

responsibilities, if the performance grants it. Applications from freelance<br>
programmers are welcome.<br>
<br>
*Salary:* The position will carry competitive salaries according to the<br>
professional profile of the applicant and excellent conditions of work<br>
