Job Offer
I've been asked to pass on information about a position open at Applied Research Associates, Inc..
There is a heavy slant on programming, but it is what is being programmed that is acoustics related. The current programming need involves coding human injury prediction models from blast waves and other sources and incorporating them into a larger framework. Therefore, the extra knowledge of acoustics and wave physics would be of use. Plus, once that project ends, the ability to both program and perform additional acoustics and signal processing work would be beneficial.
Location: Littleton, Colorado, United States
