Scientific Programmer Position

Scientific programmer position available in the Knowledge Systems Lab of
the CSD at Stanford University. Programmer will work with research team
investigating advanced methods of knowledge representation, knowledge
acquisition, and human-machine interfaces. Knowledge to be represented
covers a broad range, from fundamentals of physics and engineering to
rationale for the design of specific devices. Programmer will be
responsible for developing new programming techniques to support solution
of complex problems -- designing and implementing user interface for
augmenting or editing a complex knowledge base; will be involved in design
and implementation of the software system, in performing experiments to
test prototypes, and in evaluating experimental results; will consult on
programming details and supervise students on associated research projects;
coordinate with external organizations on development of large,
shared-knowledge base and documentation of work in user manuals and
technical reports.

Ideal candidate will have master's in CS and four years programming
experience. Equivalent combinations of relevant education and/or experience
will be considered. Must have exceptional Lisp programming skills,
preferably on Sun SparcStations. Prior experience in developing large-scale
systems, designing and implementing graphics-based HCI on the Web. Java
experience is highly desirable. Candidates must have strong background in
AI concepts and programming techniques and ability to independently design
and implement complex software systems.
