About the role
Caltech invites applications for a Research Scientist to constrain and characterize Mars' volcanic history using SHARAD radar data in study areas near the Tharsis Montes. The successful candidate will also analyze SHARAD radar data of various Mars regions.
You will lead the implementation of super‑resolution processing techniques tailored for the SHARAD dataset and perform detailed unit and subsurface mapping of lava flows by reprocessing SHARAD data using advanced algorithms. Ph.D.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
