- Tuesday, 31 December, 2024**Reference**: 875_24_CS_HPDA_RE1**Job title**: Accelerator design for Bioinformatics (RE1)**About BSC**
- The Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS) is the leading supercomputing center in Spain. It houses MareNostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputers in Europe, was a founding and hosting member of the former European HPC infrastructure PRACE (Partnership for Advanced Computing in Europe), and is now hosting entity for EuroHPC JU, the Joint Undertaking that leads large-scale investments and HPC provision in Europe. The mission of BSC is to research, develop and manage information technologies in order to facilitate scientific progress. BSC combines HPC service provision and R&D into both computer and computational science (life, earth and engineering sciences) under one roof, and currently has over 1000 staff from 60 countries.

We promote Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, fostering an environment where each and every one of us is appreciated for who we are, regardless of our differences.**Context And Mission**
- BSC participates in the AI4Science Fellowship program (AI4S), a talent attraction and retention program aimed at the convergence of HPC and AI, as well as the creation and consolidation of research lines within the departments of the BSC-CNS, leveraging the computational capabilities of MareNostrum 5. This initiative is part of the talent attraction and retention programs within investment 4 of component 19 of the Recovery, Transformation, and Resilience Plan, C005/24-ED CV1.
Our mission is to analyze and characterize the performance of large-scale Artificial Intelligence (AI) workloads to propose novel High Performance Computing (HPC) hardware accelerators. Such accelerators will address the increasingly important challenge of irregular memory accesses and sparsity in AI workloads such as recommender models, sparse large language models and graph learning models, among others.**Key Duties**
- Research on acceleration of bioinformatics and AI workloads using software and hardware optimization techniques.
- Implement novel accelerators in Hardware Description Languages (HDL) and integrate the accelerators in the OpenPiton framework.
- Write scientific papers and actively engage in ongoing research lines and activities.
- Coordinate and attend project meetings, collaborate with other MSc/PhD students in the group, and contribute to research teams and project deliverables.

**Requirements**:

- Education
- Degree/Master in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Electrical Engineering (or a related area).
- Publications in recognized computer science or AI conferences or journals are a plus, but not essential.
- Essential Knowledge and Professional Experience
- Strong background in hardware design, computer architecture, and performance analysis.
- Advanced skills in HDL, such as SystemVerilog, VHDL, Chisel, Bluespec, etc.
- Expertise in AI algorithms and data structures.
- Expertise in C/C++ programming, performance engineering, and low-level optimizations.
- Expertise in Python, Bash and basic Linux.
- Additional Knowledge and Professional Experience
- Experience with CUDA or FPGA programming is a plus but not essential.
- Experience with R and Matlab is a plus but not essential.
- Competences
- Problem-solving, highly proactive, and result-oriented work attitude.
- Strong teamwork skills and capability to work with international partners.
- Strong communication skills, including proficiency in both written and verbal English.
- Autonomy in researching and exploring new problems and lines of inquiry.

**Conditions**
- The position will be located at BSC within the Computer Sciences Department
- We offer a full-time contract (37.5h/week), a good working environment, a highly stimulating environment with state-of-the-art infrastructure, flexible working hours, extensive training plan, restaurant tickets, private health insurance, support to the relocation procedures
- Duration: Open-ended contract due to technical and scientific activities linked to the project and budget duration
- Holidays: 23 paid vacation days plus 24th and 31st of December per our collective agreement
- Starting date: 01/02/2025

**Applications procedure and process**
