About Nawras

NORCE is an ascetic research institute, with experience in a wide range of strong areas and societies of knowledge. We offer research and innovation in energy, health care, climate, environment, society and technology.

Our solutions address the main challenges of society and contribute to creating value at local, national and global levels.

About the center of social systems modeling

The modeling center (CMSS) is a passionate and multidisciplinary research group at the intersection of cognitive, social and accounting science that works with subject experts and policy professionals to participate in creating conceptual and accounting models to analyze and predict societal change. We use a variety of mathematical methods, but our favorite approach is the agent -based model (ABM). As part of many multinational federations, CMSS develops mathematical models on topics related to sustainable development and peaceful social transformations. Our goal is to provide significant scientific contributions to resolve the current societal challenges, and often by working with stakeholders. In the foreseeable future, we will focus on unifying our pioneering site in the Norwegian research scene and enhancing our presence in international arenas. Our goal is that the Massachusetts Institute of Technology one day will want to be us.

About the situation

The chosen candidate will be appointed full -time position (1.0 FTE) as Forsker III/researchers or researchers at the Norce Kristiansand office. The work language is the English language, although knowledge or willingness to learn Norwegians will be an additional advantage.

We are looking for a researcher (s) that can strengthen the CMSS team, especially in the upcoming projects, where programming, developing the graphic user interface and depicting data is a major role. Successful candidates will initially focus on developing decisive ingredients (user interfaces and advanced data) of the internal strategic infrastructure and horizontal projects in the European Union.

There are no educational obligations. CMSS members are expected to follow grant requests and represent NORCE in publishing events.

Who are we looking for?

We invite candidates who are eager to build their career in a pioneering accounting research team, which greatly contributes to both systematic innovation and applications in the real world. You should be able to work independently and cooperate effectively with local and international teams. In particular, you will develop simulation models and easy -to -use interfaces, ensuring the participation of stakeholders.

Forsker II/Senior Researchers include task and cooperation packages, publishing high -impact research, and supervising project delivery. All team members are also expected to produce high -quality work, write scientific articles, and current results in international contexts.

It is expected that the successful (candidates) (expected) in September 2025 will start and finally move to Norway.

The required qualifications and competencies

We currently see the following aspects as a priority:
* Academic degree (MA for Forsker III/Researcher; PhD for Forsker II/Great Researcher) in a related field (we follow a wide approach to importance, specializations can include, but not limited to computer social sciences, mathematical modeling, software engineering, computer science, psychology, economics, or other field),
* Excellent programming skills,
*Experience in the modeling and simulation of human behavior (for example, agent -based modeling, careful stimulation, system dynamics),,
* Experience in writing the leading cooperative suggestions and tasks (for Forsker II/great researcher),
* The ability to work in multidisciplinary teams and work independently has proven (for Forsker II/major researchers),
* Written English and excellent speech.

Desired qualifications and competencies

You may also shine in other important and related fields, including but not limited to:

• Development of interactive applications and user interfaces (for example, relevant frameworks, libraries and platforms such as unit, Django, Flask, Matplotlib, Plotly, D3.js, or relevant GIS platforms),
• Create information panels, visual analyzes, or front interface on the interactive data, ESP. Search results,
• Data supervision and use of data to inform and verify simulation models,
  *IFAT with widely used ABM simulator platforms (Netlogo, Ilujk, GAMA, Return) and frameworks to deal with large data collections,
• Social quantitative experiments (for example, surveys, (semi), SNA, records) and/or quality (for example, in -depth interviews, concentration group interviews) methods and techniques for collecting data and analysis
• Working in teams through disciplines and/or in the participation of stakeholders (for example, public administration, industry, NGOs or societies) in participatory settings (methods used in joint design, joint formation, and joint evaluation),
• Manufacturing and imagining information, and converting specific/quantitative inputs into organized outputs such as flow plans, causal ring plans, etc.
  Attention to socially related modeling, with an allergy to the ethical, political or cultural dimensions of the interaction of stakeholders,
• Write or contribute to successful grant requests,
  Scientific Projects Management,
• Personal communication skills and excellent communications, with the ability to translate between artistic and non -artistic audiences,
• Academic writing skills are very good that are reflected in publications in magazines that are reviewed by quality peers.

We offer:

• Join a team of people who love each other, love what they do and tolerate it,
• Creative, multidisciplinary, multicultural environment with excellent development and capabilities of communication,
• An opportunity to contribute a useful way to the pioneering systematic work of a fast -growing research institution,
• Work on motivation projects aimed at making positive changes in complex social systems,
• Support in the progress of social simulation skills,
• Links with other national and international centers,
• Access to innovative infrastructure and resources,
• The opportunity to develop a strong and stable research profession,
• Work in Norway that provides a predictive and stable environment with high -quality social services and benefits,
• Support in Norwegian learning,
• Competitive salary,
• Good retirement and insurance plans.
