Job #: 		PVA 45396
Hiring Range 	Open

Position Description:
    This position acts as an expert consultant and enabler to faculty,
post-docs, graduate students, and other researchers and knowledge domain
experts regarding computational methods and architectures, including
code development, debugging, parallelization, optimization, and
performance tuning; scheduling and resource allocation; and effective
use of high-performance storage, high-performance networking, and
computational accelerators. Leverage HPC software and application stack,
including compilers, scientific libraries, and commercial applications
where appropriate. Provide expert diagnosis and resolution of complex
technical issues with HPC resources. Assure effective utilization of
High Performance Computing (HPC) resources and knowledge domain
expertise. Work with faculty, post-docs, and graduate students,
providing significant collaboration in their funded and published
research. Develop and maintain documentation, including configuration
changes, as needed. Participate in efforts to strengthen the HPC user
community, such as developing and disseminating whitepapers and best
practices documents, and preparing and delivering training.
Other contributions to the HPC team may include participating in the
investigation of new HPC technologies for use in successors to current
HPC facilities, and providing a broad range of expertise in
computational middleware, architecture, Grid/Cloud, issues of scale and
automation, system and network security and monitoring, high-performance
networking, and high-performance storage and clustered file systems.

Required qualifications: expert knowledge of computational methods,
architectures, current and emerging technologies, and middleware (e.g.
MPICH, LAM, PVM, LSF, Moab, PBS); multiple programming and scripting
languages, and code development, debugging, parallelization,
optimization, and tuning; scientific libraries and applications (e.g.
VASP, LAMMPS, ACML, FFTW, PETc); and high-performance network
interconnects (e.g. 10 Gigabit Ethernet, InfiniBand, Myrinet). Success
in the position will require excellent communications skills, service
orientation, and consistent follow-through; a high degree of motivation;
and the ability to work well with faculty researchers and IT
professionals while providing technical solutions in an advanced
computing environment.

Additional knowledge, skills, and experience that are desirable, but NOT
required:
·        University or public sector experience, especially in support
of research
·        Scientific and engineering applications (e.g. Mathematica,
Matlab, Fluent, Ansys)
·        RedHat Enterprise Linux, Solaris 10/OpenSolaris
·        Network distributed services (e.g. DHCP, DNS, NFS, Samba, LDAP,
Kerberos)
·        System and network security and monitoring
·        Experience with vendor negotiation and acquisition in a
government procurement environment
·        Participation in funded research proposals and/or potential to
attract external funding

Qualifications:  Minimum requirements are a Bachelor's Degree in
computer science or a related field and 4 or more years of relevant
experience.  Master's or PhD Degree is preferred.
