*Curate, validate, and standardize macromolecular structures from the 
PDB community. Participate in exciting projects with significant impact 
on the scientific community.*

Data archives are critical to research and education. They provide safe 
and secure storage of valuable scientific data, and ensure that 
information is freely available to the world. Data curation is critical 
for these resources. In the case of PDB, data are carefully reviewed and 
annotated by wwPDB curators before public release. Expert curation of 
data coming into PDB is critical for ensuring findability, 
accessibility, interoperability, and reusability (FAIR). Biocurators 
communicate daily with members of the deposition community, and 
annotate, publicly release, and update entries in the PDB archive.

The RCSB PDB at Rutgers University in Piscataway, NJ has two openings 
for a Biochemical Information & Annotation Specialist (Biocurator) to 
curate, validate, and standardize macromolecular structures for 
distribution in the PDB Core Archive.


This position offers the opportunity to participate in exciting projects 
with significant impact on the scientific community. The position is an 
academic position with state benefit. The salary is compatible with 
faculty level.

Knowledge and Skills:

  * PhD in Biological chemistry or chemistry is required
  * Background in 3DEM or crystallography has strong advantage
  * Experience with small molecules such as organometallic complexes is
    preferred
  * Knowledge of Linux computer systems and biological databases is
    preferred

The successful candidate should be self-motivated, pay close attention 
to detail, possess strong interpersonal, communication, and writing 
skills, with the ability to handle multiple projects, shifting 
priorities, while meeting deadlines. This academic position has state 
benefits and a faculty-level salary.
