04 Dec | Barcelona Supercomputing Center - Centro Nacional De Supercomputacion | Barcelona Software systems used in domains such as automotive, space, large scientific infrastructures, or smart cities have seen their complexity drastically increased in the last years due to the need for implementing advanced functionalities applied to cutting-edge research areas like autonomous driving and traffic management.
The performance requirements of these new functionalities urge the use of parallel and heterogeneous architectures capable of delivering the expected throughput while still considering other non-functional aspects of the system like real-time requirements, fault tolerance, and energy budgets.
The research activities will focus on one or several of the following topics: In close collaboration with leading automotive and space companies, development of software system prototypes to address the requirements of cutting-edge functionalities.
Optimization of advanced software functionalities targeting parallel computing architectures, including multi-core systems, GPUs, and/or FPGAs.
Programming models: use, implementation, and extension of programming models with parallel capabilities, like OpenMP and CUDA, to target complex software systems, and concurrent languages like RUST and Ada.
Code transformation and optimization: high-level synthesis and compilation techniques to boost performance, predictability, and correctness, mostly based on LLVM and MLIR.
Runtime systems: run-time techniques to boost performance, heterogeneity (targeting GPUs and FPGAs), and fault tolerance.
The financing entities are the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation and the European Union-Next GenerationEU, within the framework of the PRTR and the MRR.
Key Duties: Research on parallel programming models towards productivity and other non-functional requirements.
Development of compiler and run-time techniques to support extensions for performance and other non-functional requirements.
Write technical reports and papers.
Attend technical meetings.
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: Asap.
