Hi all,

At the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA, www.nina.no)

special focus on our Linux-based infrastructure for scientific
computing, where FOSS GIS technology plays a central role:

see: http://www.nina.no/english/News/News-article/ArticleId/4098/Systems-administrator-Linux

Since this is the first Linux-oriented position in NINA, the person to
be employed will be a kind of pioneer in NINA and has to be
comfortable with taking responsibility. Nevertheless, “young and
talented” candidates are equally encouraged to apply as “experienced”
ones!

NINA is planning to setup a HPC/Cloud-based solution for scientific
computing, which will become an important tasks in this position
together with system administration for databases, OGC web services,
data management and storage as well as possible involvement in
research projects.... The work will be carried out in close contact
with our System administrators on Windows, our FOSS GIS developers as
well as users from the fields of FOSS GIS / remote sensing, statistics
or genetics.

About NINA:
NINA is a diverse research institute covering many different fields of
nature research (in addition to biologists and ecologists we have
economists, social scientists, veterinaries). NINA has a wide
portfolio of projects, so our future employee will definitely not
suffer from monotony. Being a foreigner here in Norway myself, I can
warmly recommend NINA and Norway as a place to work. Of course, nature
here is fantastic and also climate and light conditions are more
pleasant than one might think from the outside…
