The Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology (MBMG) invites applications for a seismologist to operate, monitor, and maintain the 50-station Montana Regional Seismograph Network (MRSN). Duties include, but are not limited to, the following tasks: Analyze and catalog local and regional seismic events for research in seismic hazards studies. Cooperate and share data with surrounding seismic networks, the USGS Advanced National Seismic System, and the EarthScope Data Management Center. Visit remote sites to maintain and repair seismograph stations and telemetry sites. Maintain computer servers that handle seismic data. Respond to significant seismic events and provide information to the public, and State, Tribal, and Federal agencies. Continue the effort to upgrade and modernize the MRSN and analyze seismic data. Develop new grants and work cooperatively with the MBMG GeoHazards team, which may include collaborating on earthquake hazards research projects and fieldwork, the annual Montana GeoHazards Workshop, and the Montana Earthquake Working Group. The position is based in Butte, Montana and is primarily supported by state funding. The MBMG is a department of the Montana Technological University, but this is a non-tenurable, non-teaching position.
