Desired skills include designing enterprise databases, e.g., Oracle or

of data flow.

The position is open to U.S. citizens and nationals. It will be filled
under the "Operations Research Analyst" job series, and located in Seattle,

bearded, ringed, spotted, and ribbon seals in Alaska. The primary
objectives of the program are to support management and assessment of
population status under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, and to gain a
better understanding of the factors responsible for the dynamics of
populations and their roles in the ecosystem.
