Frankfurt am Main, Deutschland Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung (SGN) Vollzeit

**Data Scientist in Ecological Statistics and Modelling**

(tenure-track, full time / part time options available)

SBiK-F investigates the interactions and feedbacks between biodiversity and climate in the past, present and future. In our research, we integrate approaches from biosciences and geosciences and combine data from natural history collections with empirical research and modeling in ecological, evolutionary and ecosystem sciences. A core, innovative element of our research program is the development of cutting-edge numerical methods for the analyses of collection-based, organismal trait data to gain a functional understanding of the consequences of biodiversity loss.

**Your tasks**
- Conduct internationally outstanding trait-based research with plants and/or animals, ideally also addressing ecosystem-level processes
- Develop cutting-edge concepts and methods for the analyses and modelling of trait data
- Contribute to a mechanistic understanding of how climate and other environmental drivers shape biodiversity
- Contribute to establishing digital collections as a hub for trait-based research globally
- Publish results of your research in prestigious, international scientific journals
- Secure external third-party funding
- Contribute to the supervision of early-career researchers
- Provide support and training on novel statistical and machine learning/AI approaches to Senckenberg scientists

**Your profile**

**Essential criteria**
- Doctoral degree in biology, bioinformatics, environmental or geosciences, or a related field
- Excellent knowledge in cutting-edge statistical methods, e.g., Bayesian statistics and/or mechanistic/process-based ecological modelling
- Expertise working with functional traits of different taxa (e.g., plants and animals) and/or with trait-based ecosystem models
- Strong interest in biodiversity research in relation to climate change
- Willingness to work in interdisciplinary teams across the different Senckenberg institutes
- Fluency in spoken and written English
- Proven success in obtaining third-party funding given the career stage

**Additional desirable criteria**
- Curiosity to identify mechanisms linking different levels of biological organization (e.g., from genes to traits to ecosystems)
- Teaching and supervision experience

**What can you expect?**
- A vibrant, international team of scientists focused on curiosity-driven research to understand and protect Earth’s biodiversity
- Excellent infrastructures and collaboration opportunities, e.g. in ecology, ecosystem sciences, global change biology, molecular ecology and genomics
- An attractive and challenging position in a research institution of international standing
- Opportunities to participate in teaching and outreach activities, e.g. in our museum and with collaborating universities
- Life in a vibrant, internationally-minded city (population 750.000), a global hub for transport and culture
- Flexible working hours - mobile office - annual special payment - company pension scheme - 30 days holidays - strong support for work/life balance (certified by “audit berufundfamilie”)
- Secure employment that is robust to economic or health crises
