Requirements

What You’ll Be Doing (We don’t love the bullet points, but we love the work!)

In this key role, you'll get to be part of an engineering team responsible for performing characterization and performance tuning of various software solutions for multiple HPC node types. You'll collaborate with HPC SMEs, mission customers, and other stakeholders to understand their computational needs and develop efficient software solutions to meet those requirements. This position involves working with parallel computing frameworks, optimizing algorithms for parallel execution, and ensuring scalability and performance of software applications on HPC clusters!

You will get to work with cutting edge systems which might include (but are likely not limited to) containerization tools (remember, this is HPC), novel algorithm development, manipulation of extremely large data sets (again, HPC!), real-time systems, business management information systems, and systems which incorporate data repositories, data transport services, and application and systems development and monitoring. All being critical to the success of the customer and the overall mission at large.

Required Skills

– Experience using the Linux CLI

– Experience developing scripts using Bash/Python to automate test procedures

– General HPC knowledge regarding compute, network, memory, and storage components

– Experience developing software applications and libraries e.g., C, C++, Java, Python 

– Experience with HPC parallel computing frameworks such as OpenSHMEM, pthreads, OpenMP, MPI, UPC

– Experience optimizing code performance through parallelization, vectorization, and other optimization techniques

– Experience documenting software design, implementation, and performance optimizations

– Experience troubleshooting and debugging performance issues in HPC applications

– Experience performing HPC benchmarking testing

Position Desired Skills

– Experience with Git Version Control System

– Experience with the Atlassian Suite of Tools (Jira, Confluence)

Qualifications

– (3-9) years’ experience, multiple positions

– Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related discipline, or substitute years experience
