Are you ready for an exciting new career working at NASA? Come work side by side with top developers and scientists developing Earth / Atmospheric Science data analysis and visualization tools. The tools you will help develop will be used by data analysts and researchers around the globe as well as benefit educational organizations.

NASA, the pinnacle of human achievement wants you to join this team. We at ADNET Systems are proud to be a member of this unique team, and now, so can you. Come join ADNET Systems.

KBR is looking for enthusiastic Data Science and Software Developers with implementation interest or experience in an agile framework to support work at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Earth and Data Information Services Center (GES DISC). The responsibilities for this project requires full stack engineering with team members performing multiple roles. We are also transitioning a significant portion of our on-prem operations to cloud processing so experience or certifications in AWS DevOps or SysOps would be highly desirable.

The Software Developer will work with a team of experts in Earth Science data informatics and Software Engineers to support a NASA Earth Science Data Center (https://disc.gsfc.nasa.gov) located in Greenbelt, MD. The ADNET team is involved in supporting the archiving and distribution of Earth Science data from NASA Earth Science missions, development of online discovery and analysis applications (https://giovanni.gsfc.nasa.gov). The successful candidate will have technical development responsibilities and help with planning, coordination and delivery of applications based on infrastructure-as-code concepts. The ideal candidate must have experience and expertise with container-based architectures Docker and Kubernetes and with AWS server-less services (Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, etc.) and managing resources through Infrastructure as Code (IaaC).

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center nestled in the Maryland suburbs of Greenbelt is just 30 minutes from the heartbeat of America – Washington, D.C. Now you can have it all, the nightlife, museums, great food and theater. Work in a place that pushes the envelope of science every day, yet spy a deer or a Canadian goose as you stroll the grounds of Goddard during lunch.

Come, reach for the stars with NASA!!
