Postdoctoral Researcher in Movement Ecology

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team at the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research (Leibniz-IZW) in Berlin, Germany. The successful candidate will work on the development of the ATLAS telemetry research hub on movement ecology, jointly with the University of Potsdam (UP) and the Leibniz Institute for Agricultural Engineering and Bioeconomy (ATB). The project focuses on understanding and improving the adaptive capacity of wild animals to cope with global change.

The postdoctoral researcher will be responsible for conducting field work on birds, supporting the ATLAS telemetry hub, developing and implementing AI tools for the analysis of movement data, and manuscript writing. The candidate will also have the opportunity to supervise MSc/ BSc students and interns.

Requirements:

  • Doctorate/PhD in ecology, biostatistics, computer science or related areas, or equivalent experience proven by track record.
  • Experience in field work, especially with ringing and tagging birds (ringing license and car license mandatory).

  • Experience with the analysis of movement data and machine learning algorithms; knowledge of agent-based modelling is an asset.
  • Excellent programming skills, ideally in R and/or Python; experience with tools for reproducibility, code sharing and version control.
  • High motivation, flexibility and ability to work both independently and as part of a team with a diverse team of scientists.
  • Good interpersonal and communication skills.
  • Knowledge in modelling of infectious disease transmission in wildlife systems is highly desirable.

This is a full-time position with a salary in accordance with the public collective bargaining law TVöD (Bund) with an annual bonus payment, at level E13.
