<tt>Cornell's Lab of Ornithology is seeking a Prog/Analyst III to design and
implement sound analysis software and support ongoing and future
research in the field of animal bioacoustics in the Bioacoustics
Research Program. Current research projects include basic research on
acoustic communication in whales, elephants, and a variety of bird
species, as well as conservation-oriented research using sound as a
means of monitoring populations of threatened and endangered species.
Software development activities include work on the existing Raven
project as well as other internal tools and future projects. Must be
able to interact well with others, including software developers,
software users, engineers, and biologists. Responsibilities will include
planning, designing, scheduling, implementing, and tracking of software
projects. This is not merely a project oversight position but includes a
large percentage of time writing code. Implementation of software
applications will be in Java, C++, C, and/or MATLAB. Additional growth
opportunities exist to lead project teams in the future.</tt><br>
