Integrated Statistics is looking for a Database Project Manager to work in support of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS).

The Project Manager will work on software for the Northeast Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC), Greater Atlantic Regional Field Office (GARFO), and a variety of other stakeholders. NOAA NMFS collects fishery data by sampling onboard commercial fishing vessels from Maine to North Carolina, USA. The collected data is tracked, edited, audited and uploaded to a master database, then provided to end users and stakeholders for use in fisheries management decision making.

The Database Project Manager will help to develop and analyze Electronic Monitoring (EM) program database requirements. EM is an exciting new tool that is at the forefront of efforts to modernize fisheries monitoring. Staff working on this project are passionate about service to fishery stakeholders, innovation, and collaboration.

The database project manager will work under the direction of the EM Lead, taking responsibility for managing specific aspects of the EM programs, including: supervising EM software and database personnel; interacting with EM project partners; and collaborating with relevant staff to prepare program database specification documentation. Through these actions, the database project manager will support multiple growing EM programs while ensuring control, security, integrity and accessibility and dissemination of data.
