SWPC operates 24/7 to monitor and forecast conditions in the space environment that affect the performance and reliability of critical technologies on Earth and in space. SWPC supports national security, transportation, power grid resilience, emergency management, and commercial space operations. SWPC is also designated as one of three ICAO Space Weather Centers, supporting international aviation. The Web Developer selected will support SWPC Testbed by developing, maintaining, and testing scientific software tools used in space weather modeling, analysis, and forecasting. This position plays a critical role in the research-to-operations (R2O) process by enabling the integration of new models, data sources, and processing workflows into operational test environments. The role requires strong programming and analytical skills, a solid understanding of geophysical or atmospheric data, and the ability to work collaboratively with scientists, developers, and operational forecasters. The Ideal Web Developer selected will be located in the Boulder, CO, however the role could operate remotely for the right candidate. Responsibilities Duties of the Web Developer selected will include the following: * Write, refactor, and maintain scientific code for processing observational data, running models, and supporting experimental workflows within the SWPC Testbed. * Support containerization of scientific applications using tools such as Docker or Singularity to ensure reproducibility and scalability. * Assist in the design, setup, and execution of testbed experiments, including integration of new model output and observational inputs into forecast workflows. * Perform data analysis and quality control of space weather model and observational datasets to support testbed experiments and product validation. * Contribute to the development of graphical user interfaces or visualization tools that enhance the usability of forecast tools and data products. * Collaborate with research scientists, system engineers, and operational staff to ensure code and workflows are aligned with SWPC operational constraints and priorities. * Support documentation of software, experiments, and evaluation results, and contribute to briefings or technical discussions with stakeholders. ## Related Videos - [Lynx: Native for More](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1445-lynx-native-for-more) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [How a Small Team Shrank a Microsoft Monorepo by 94%](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1236-how-a-small-team-shrank-a-microsoft-monorepo-by-94) - [Hacking AI at the Edge of the Indian Ocean](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100177-hacking-ai-at-the-edge-of-the-indian-ocean) - [Docker build without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100114-docker-build-without-docker) - [Git for Code Reviews](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/429-git-for-code-reviews) ## Related Articles - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [7 Most Popular Web Developer Jobs in Europe](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/163-7-most-popular-web-developer-jobs-in-europe) - [Making Data Warehouses Fast: A Developer’s Story](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/107-making-data-warehouses-fast-a-developer-s-story) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers)
