.Climate: Past, Present & Future (CL)Earth and Space Science Informatics (ESSI)Energy, Resources and the Environment (ERE)Type: Full timeLevel: ExperiencedOpen: 13 December 2024Posted: 13 November 2024About 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 are particularly interested in the strengths and lived experiences of women and underrepresented groups to help us avoid perpetuating biases and oversights in science and IT research. In instances of equal merit, the incorporation of the under-represented sex will be favoured.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.If you consider that you do not meet all the requirements, we encourage you to continue applying for the job offer. We value diversity of experiences and skills, and you could bring unique perspectives to our team.Context And Mission: Within the Computational Earth Sciences group, the successful candidate will be part of the Models and Workflows team, being in charge of improving and maintaining the existing software stack that is used to manage and monitor scientific experiments in different High-Performance Computing facilities, as well as providing support to the scientific groups of the Earth Sciences department.The Models and Workflows team devotes to the research and development of methodologies and tools essential to efficiently use the variety of computing resources available at the BSC and in other HPC institutions. The team is composed of more than 18 members and has strong connections with the Performance and Data & Diagnostics teams, as well as with the scientific groups.The candidate will work within the EC-Earth climate model ecosystem, which is developed and maintained by various institutions in Europe, including the BSC. EC-Earth 3 is an established model with a solid in-house supporting software stack, which is developed following a Continuous Delivery strategy supported by cyclic pseudo-automatic testing. EC-Earth4 is the new model cycle that will bring structural changes with important involvement of the BSC. This model will run on state-of-the-art systems such as the upcoming EuroHPC Pre Exascale systems
