hace 3 meses

Barcelona, España Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Centro Nacional de Supercomputación A tiempo completo

Context And Mission

The mission of the Earth Sciences Department of the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre, led by Prof. Francisco Doblas-Reyes, is to carry out research and develop methods for environmental forecasting, with a particular focus on the atmosphere-ocean-biosphere system. This includes the management and transfer of technology to support key societal challenges through the use of models and data applications in High Performance Computing (HPC) and AI infrastructures. It also includes the dissemination of real-time air quality and climate information based on its research expertise in collaboration with the Spanish authorities and the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO).

The successful candidate will join the Computational Earth Sciences group to co-lead the activities of the HPC for Earth Sciences team, which is responsible for the good scalability and efficient hardware resource usage of Earth models and applications by identifying computational bottlenecks and optimizing them using cutting-edge performance tools and HPC techniques, including from more efficient numerical algorithms to architecture-aware approaches.

The HPC for Earth Sciences team plays a crucial role in the research to operations cycle, including initiatives such as Destination Earth and the European Digital Twin of the Ocean. It has strong links with the other teams in the Computational Earth Sciences group and with the research groups in the department.

Key Duties

Contribute to the coordination and supervision of a team of 15 research engineers and scientists. Lead the planning, execution and completion of ongoing and new engineering and research projects within the team, assigning tasks and prioritising them. Identify and pursue opportunities for the sustainability of the team and the department's models and tools. Contribute to the development strategy of the department's tools, thereby increasing the applicability and international visibility - and hence impact - of the research arising from current and future projects. Contribute to the research activities of the team by identifying potential new lines of research and assisting in the publication and dissemination of the team's research activities. The selected candidate will lead the HPC for Earth Sciences team, manage tasks and deliverables, and supervise team members. The candidate will report to the Head of the Computational Earth Sciences Group.
