Join us for the Seattle Research Software Engineer (RSE) Meetup, a FREE event hosted and sponsored by the eScience Institute. This introductory networking event is a great opportunity for Research Software Engineers, developers, and scientists in the Seattle area to connect, network, and build a community.

Whether you’re an experienced RSE or just starting out in the field, this meetup is designed to provide a friendly and inclusive environment where you can meet like-minded professionals, share your experiences, and expand your professional network. Our goal is to foster a supportive community of RSEs in the region and create opportunities for collaboration and knowledge exchange.

The event will feature networking activities, icebreakers, and interactive discussions to help you get to know your fellow RSEs and build meaningful connections. You’ll have the opportunity to exchange ideas, learn from each other’s experiences, and explore potential collaborations in a relaxed and informal setting.

This is just the beginning! Our future events will feature lightning talks, demos, and interactive discussions on a wide variety of topics related to research software development, including best practices, tools, techniques, and challenges faced by RSEs in various domains. We’ll cover topics ranging from programming languages, version control, data management, software testing, and more. You’ll have the opportunity to hear from experienced RSEs and researchers, learn about cutting-edge projects, and engage in lively discussions that will help you broaden your knowledge and stay up-to-date with the latest developments in the field.

Don’t miss this chance to connect with fellow RSEs, establish new relationships, and be part of a growing community of Research Software Engineers in the Seattle area. Food and refreshments will be provided, and there will be ample time for networking and socializing. Come join us for an evening of building professional connections, sharing insights, and fostering collaborations!

We look forward to welcoming you to the Seattle RSE Meetup and starting this exciting journey of building a strong RSE community in the region!

The event will be held in the WRF Data Science Studio on the UW campus
