All,

The U.S. Geological Survey, Climate and Land Use Change Mission Area, is
seeking applicants for two leadership positions in the Land Remote
Sensing Program: the Program Coordinator and the Associate Program
Coordinator. Please assist us by spreading the word to colleagues and
potential candidates.

These positions provide leadership and management for the science,
engineering, and operations aspects of the program.  As you know, the
program is known for operating, providing data, and developing
information products from the Landsat satellites.  Other land remote
sensing responsibilities include areas such as user requirements, UAS,
LiDAR, and international data exchanges.

The two positions are being advertised together (one job announcement
for both).  Each is advertised in both the Physical Scientist (1301) and
Engineer (801) job series, and for both internal (merit promotion, MP)
and external candidates (delegated examination, DEU).
