One highlight at the end is a skech of the crazy new language features we're going to have to teach to the 100s of JS devs. If that sounds like an exciting challenge, consider applying! We have roles in both NY and London.

For perspective: a recent study suggested that economic savings from just a *single* well-predicted hurricane, thanks to NOAA research advancements, are on order of *$5 billion.* That exceeds NOAA's *entire proposed annual operating budget.* So much for government efficiency.

This will build on the work we've done with fortran-src (joss.theoj.org/papers/10.21...) and CamFort (camfort.github.io). It's a chance to try out new ideas, develop both theory and practice, and to work with industry and academic partners (including applied to climate modelling).
