This is a fully remote position with an outstanding compensation and benefits package! You will join a collegial and collaborative team dedicated to the finest possible customer service for scientific authors submitting their journal articles to AAS publications.
You will be working to support and learn from the editorial team of AAS Editor-in-Chief, Lead Editors, Scientific Editors, and Data Editors (who all work remotely too).
