Short-term programming position at MBARI

MBARI has a need for 3 short-term (4 month) Research Assistants for 
projects with some
serious programming needs. People to be considered for these positions
would need to be fluent in Java and C++ and have experience in doing
complex software projects and working in teams. Specifically the idea is
to bring in tools used in NASA mission operations (more recently from
the Mars Exploration Rovers mission) to bear on
mission operations in the Marine world for the Monterey Bay '06 field
experiment (see http://aosn.mbari.org/asap/ and
http://www.princeton.edu/~dcsl/asap/) starting this mid-July. While this 
position
is not specifically AI related, those skills would be welcome

MBARI is  looking for candidates who have the internal drive
and zeal to make things happen, be technically competent, have good
communication skills and have a deep desire to make an impact.

The pay would be in the range of $13/hr + depending on skill. They must be
US nationals or Green-Card holders since there will be quite a bit of
interaction with NASA personnel.  Both undergraduates and graduates are 
welcome to
apply.
