Hello,
My research project at NUS has one open position for a research
assistant. We are developing a scientific cloud (yes we also use
buzzwords in research). More precisely we provide to the users a system
with two main roles: first, a file storing and sharing system for (among
other things) scientific data, second, an interface to design
computational tasks on this scientific data. The system is still in an
early phase but already deployed in production for the scientists of our
research project.
The interesting bit for Ruby programmers:
Both the front-end (providing an HTML5 + jquery interface) and the
back-end (providing a REST API) are running on Sinatra, and the main
part of the job will consist in implementing new features for the users,
so you will write a good deal of Ruby. The remaining part can consist in
a lot of disparate tasks, depending on your skills.
The job position is open to anyone with a Master's degree, Bachelor's
degree with Honours can be considered (subject to the administration's
clearance). There is no restriction on the status, you will be issued an
employment pass if you are neither local nor permanent resident. The
contract is one year long, renewable once (so, total of two years).
If you are interested, have any question or comment, please contact me
