The successful candidate will be responsible for leading large-scale astronomical data processing and management projects, ensuring their timely and within-budget delivery. This pivotal role involves overseeing a diverse team of approximately 150 scientific, technical, and administrative staff, and the Executive Director will be tasked with strategic planning, fostering scientific excellence, and promoting the optimal use of the center's resources within the broader astronomical community. The position also requires close collaboration with the scientific community, as well as with leadership at the company and other relevant institutions, in developing the case for IPAC's involvement in new missions and initiatives. Additionally, the Executive Director will represent the company in national and international forums related to astronomy and will be the primary liaison with funding agencies to support IPAC's goals.
