Jobs & Appointments

Aarhus University invite applications for a 28-month full time (37h/w) fixed-term postdoctoral position in Simulation and Modelling.
The position focuses on designing and implementing the agent-based modeling component of research projects in code, requiring proficiency in programming and simulation development.

The Department of Management at Aarhus BSS, Aarhus University, invites applications for a 3-year postdoc position in the Novo Nordisk Foundation-funded project “PlantTip” focusing on modelling food consumer behavior and policy responses.

The position comes with an earmarked travel and training budget, and will be part of a generally well-funded project with access to HPCs and local LLMs. The position is full-time research but teaching can be negotiated if candidates are interested.

The Center for Connected Learning & Computer-Based Modeling (CCL) at Northwestern University is looking for a
full-time Software Developer to work on NetLogo. If you are a system builder and can design and implement a whole
application independently, this position is ideal for you! Start date as soon as possible. Please apply via [email protected], which is faster than applying via the web site. See detailed description.

The NetLogo project seeks a founding executive director (Sr. Project Administrator) to help develop an organizational structure to cultivate the ecosystem of NetLogo users and contributors. The organization exists to maintain and develop the NetLogo software and grow its community of computational modelers. The initial term for this position is through 8/31/2025.

MS/PhD position at the Auburn University College of Forestry, Wildlife and Environment. Collaborative research focusing on the use of a published agent-based modeling framework, OvCWD, to inform Chronic wasting disease surveillance and management strategies.

Arizona State University’s School of Complex Adaptive Systems has an opening for a social or ecological scientist, with expertise in scientific modeling, to work with an interdisciplinary team to design, develop, refine, and apply cyberinfrastructure that supports computational models of the complex interactions and dynamics in social-ecological systems.

This postdoc will work with all collaborators under the direction of Dr. Pat Zollner to develop an Agent Based Model of the behaviors of cage free chickens. This work will be informed by extensive empirical work and will use ODD & TRACE for documentation to compare alternative cage free housing systems based on chicken welfare and laying of eggs outside nest boxes. Work will incorporate perspectives from industry as well as interested non-governmental organizations.

This postdoc will help design, develop and apply an Agent Based Model simulating the effects of stressors on least bells vireos (an endangered bird species found in southern California). A project overview can be found here (https://serdp-estcp.org/projects/details/89fdcf5b-0c44-41f9-af97-fd1d45908863/rc22-3216-project-overview) and this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0DQPcSk-Qg) provides a 1/2 hour project summary. Questions can be directed to Dr. Pat Zollner using [email protected].

The research of the post-doc will be focusing at the modeling of human behaviour in selected cases of local social innovation (projects at neighborhood level). The HUMAT framework, developed in an earlier project (SMARTEES, see https://local-social-innovation.eu) will be used as architecture for developing a simulated population for selected cases. Empirical data will have to be collected and implemented to construct a valid and representative population. Simulation runs will produce differ[…]

Job Opportunity - Netlogo developer

The primary duties of the position will consist of working collaboratively to maintain and improve complex agent-based simulation models of human behavior in NetLogo. This will include general model improvements of existing models, designing and coding new model components, and research and experimentation with these models.
