[OSGeo-Jobs] Data Science Research Engineers

[Cameron Shorter]

Hi all,
Dietmar asked if I could forward on this advertisment for job 
opportunities at the University of Sydney. There is more information (on 
a PDF) which I haven't included as it probably won't fit on an email list.

Dietmar should be able to forward to you if you reach out to him.

Warm regards, Cameron
