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, and is involved in large-scale investments and HPC provision in Europe. The mission of BSC is to research, develop and manage information technologies to facilitate scientific progress. BSC combines HPC service provision and R&D into both computer and computational science under one roof, with 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 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 everyone is appreciated for who they are, regardless of differences.
Context And Mission
The performance tools group (tools.bsc.es) works in an open-source project where the key component is Paraver, a performance analyzer based on traces. The Dimemas simulator can be used to predict the application's behavior under different scenarios. Performance analytics modules extract insight from the raw performance data. Extrae allows capturing performance data to feed the previous tools. Provided with such tools, the analyst can generate and validate hypotheses to investigate the trails provided by the execution trace.
If you are interested in the development of performance tools, we are looking for candidates to join the team to work on R&D activities and projects.
