R sig jobs - Feb 2009 - Searching for R programmer in India, New Delhi

Hello

The National Institute for Public Finance and Policy is looking to hire 
someone for the month of March 2009.

The project is in time series econometrics (threshold cointegration with 
package tsDyn)  and involve computer intensive methods, so external help 
is needed for overall code optimisation, involving:
- parallel work (set-up of a small cluster),
-rewritting pieces of code from R to C of Fortran
-set-up of algorithms for matrix computations.

As current applications concern financial markets, people with knowledge 
in finance or econometrics are also welcome to apply. This job can 
possibly lead to a longer term engagment at the institute for other 
projects in case of satisfactory work.
