Full-time positions

Research Specialist – MIni CArbon DAting System (MICADAS)

Join our team at the KCCAMS facility to support research in climate change and air quality with our new MIni CArbon DAting System (MICADAS). 

We are seeking an individual to operate the MICADAS, prepare samples, conduct data analysis, and train and supervise facility users. We expect that approximately 80% of the time will be devoted to the operation of the MICADAS, and the remainder to collaborating on research with KCCAMS and outside scientists.

The position provides significant training and growth opportunities and comes with health and other benefits. 

With questions, contact  Dr. C. Czimczik (czimczik@uci.edu) or G. Santos (gdossant@uci.edu). Apply here: https://recruit.ap.uci.edu/JPF08137
