Original posting

Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation | Seattle, WA Data Scientist / Simulations and Forecasting Researcher http://bit.ly/ihme-hn IHME is 250 person independent research institute affiliated with the University of Washington, primarily focused on global health research and statistics. I'm looking for a data scientist / researcher / dev for a cool project we're working on that aims to simulate the health of the entire world. Experience with distributed computing a must, as this is a massively parallel task. We've got a lot of fun toys to play with like a 20k core cluster and all the latest Spark gizmos, plus you get to work on projects that have proven impact on the world. Contact me at kfor at uw dot edu if you're interested.
