- 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, and is a hosting member of the PRACE European distributed supercomputing infrastructure. 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 770 staff from 55 countries.
- Look at the BSC experience:

- BSC-CNS YouTube Channel
- Let's stay connected with BSC Folks
- We are particularly interested for this role in the strengths and lived experiences of women and underrepresented groups to help us avoid perpetuating biases and oversights in science and IT research.**Context And Mission**
- The Department of Earth Sciences of the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre-Centro Nacional de Supercomputación (BSC-CNS), BSC-ES henceforth (bsc.es/earth-sciences) is one of the most active groups in air quality and atmospheric composition modeling, climate prediction and climate services in Europe. The department is currently composed of more than 100 people, including technical and support staff, structured in four distinct but interacting research groups: Earth System Services (ESS), Atmospheric Composition (AC), Climate Variability and Change (CVC), and Computational Earth Sciences (CES).
- The AC group interacts with the CES group on the development and optimization of model codes, pre
- and post-processing tools, and operational model settings, with the CVC group on the links between atmospheric aerosols and climate, and with the ESS group to enhance the use of air quality products and services.
- The group contributes to various forecasting activities. MONARCH is the operational model of the first WMO Regional Specialized Meteorological Center for Atmospheric Sand and Dust Forecast (i.e., the Barcelona Dust Regional Center), and contributes to the International Cooperative for Aerosol Prediction (ICAP) and the Copernicus Air Quality Regional Production Service of the European Commission. The group also develops and maintains the CALIOPE air quality system (“CALIdad del aire Operacional Para España”), which provides high-resolution air quality forecasts over Europe and Spain using the in-house emission model HERMES.-
**Key Duties**
- Implementation, execution, and monitoring of atmospheric numerical models (MONARCH, WRF-ARW, CMAQ) in a High-Performance Computing environment.
- Interact with computational earth sciences scientists to improve the performance and reliability of the system. This includes communication with HPC user support at BSC.
- Interact with atmospheric composition scientists to understand processes and model configuration.
- Maintenance of the current operational air quality forecasting systems and development of new features as a result of user interaction.
- Evaluation of the products delivered.

**Requirements**:

- Education
- Having an MSc in Computer Science, Meteorology, Physics, Mathematics, or a related discipline
- Essential Knowledge and Professional Experience
- 3-5 years of experience in a similar position
- Good development skills and experience with UNIX/LINUX environments.
- Experience in parallel programming models and workflow-managers
- Experience in Python programming and/or scripting languages (Bash).
- Experience in version control in a collaborative environment, including SVN or Git.
- Additional Knowledge and Professional Experience
- Previous experience in scientific software and tools (R, Python Numpy and Scipy,) will be valued.
- Previous experience with continuous integration tools (e.g., Jenkins) will be evaluated.
- Experience with coding and documentation best practices and standards.
- Competences
- Ability to take the initiative, prioritize and work under set deadlines and pressure.
- Ability to work both independently and within a team.

**Conditions**
- The position will be located at BSC within the Earth Sciences Department
- We offer a full-time contract, 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
- Starting date: 01/05/2023
