Position no.: 0030514

Salary: $76,057 - $82,331 p.a. plus 17% superannuation

The Australian Urban Research Infrastructure Network (AURIN) project 
(www.aurin.org.au) is an exciting $20m initiative across Australia tasked with 
delivering a state of the art research infrastructure supporting nationwide urban 
and build environment researchers. The project will develop a core framework 
(e-Infrastructure) through which a variety of urban research areas (lenses) will 
be supported. Examples of the kinds of lenses that will be supported include 
supporting researchers interested in health impacts of living in cities, traffic, 
housing, energy and water challenges facing cities, and future city models. Many 
of these challenges are based on the access to and use of a wide variety of 
heterogeneous data sets from a range of data providers across Australia including 
government departments such as the Australian Bureau of Statistics, to 
commercial/utility companies, to research data sets from universities and a range 
of other organisations. The data is itself extremely heterogeneous. The AURIN 
e-Infrastructure is currently accessible through a portal-based environment 
accessible through the Australian Access Federation (www.aaf.edu.au). This portal 
offers access to a range of diverse data sets, tools and workflows that support 
urban and built environment research.

The project requires an experienced user interface software developer who will 
work as part of a core AURIN e-Infrastructure team in the Melbourne eResearch 
Group (MEG) at the University of Melbourne under the leadership of Prof. Richard 
Sinnott. The individual will, working closely with the AURIN technical team and 
with the existing AURIN portal e-Enabler, be involved in the design, definition, 
implementation and support and future extensions to the AURIN portal user interface.
