DescriptionHPC Systems Software Engineer - 97205
Division: NE-NERSC
Lawrence Berkeley National Lab’s (LBNL, https://www.lbl.gov/) NERSC Division has an opening for an HPC Systems Software Engineer to join the team.
In this exciting role, you are a combination of software and systems development role with more classical systems administration, set in a cloud-oriented High Performance Computing Environment. You will work with a diverse team of subject-matter experts, operational staff, and vendor affiliates to assure operational success for the computational systems. You are a member of a team responsible for analysis and 24x7 on-call support of world class HPC computational systems, including integrated networking and storage, as well as developing novel capabilities to integrate into the system to further scientific productivity and usability. You will work on maintaining existing operational systems, associated test systems, integrating new systems, and contributing to the operational design and development of future systems. Further, you will interface and work closely with colleagues both within the organization in cross-functional teams, as well as with vendors.
What You Will Do:
• Design, deploy, and manage High Performance Computational systems.
• Provide 24x7 on-call support and analysis of operational HPC systems.
• Develop new software and maintain existing software (typically in C and Python, other languages from time-to-time) to manage the system or extend system capabilities.
• Participate in team-oriented agile development and management process for HPC systems.
• Work closely with Infrastructure, Operations, Networking, Security, Storage, and User Engagements groups to assure smooth operation of the system and user experience.
Additional Responsibilities as needed:
• Define and then lead new collaborative projects influencing new functionality or major vendor interactions.
