It houses MareNostrum, one of the most powerful supercomputers 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. 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 The Machine Learning for Biomedical Research unit at the BSC, led by Dr. Davide Cirillo, is currently offering a research engineer position. This position focuses on facilitating the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in biomedical research, with special emphasis on generative AI. This position places a strong emphasis on both the developmental and infrastructural aspects of AI models used in biomedicine. The Research Engineer will contribute to the development and implementation of state-of-the-art AI techniques—working with diverse data types such as images, genomic sequences, time series, and texts—and lead efforts in optimizing and deploying these systems within our sophisticated HPC environment. The successful candidate will join the Machine Learning for Biomedical Research unit, a dynamic research group within the Life Sciences department. The Department includes multiple expert scientists that work on various aspects of computational biology. The Researcher will work in a highly sophisticated HPC environment, have access to the multiple computational infrastructures available at BSC, and establish collaborations with experts in multiple areas. The funding for these actions/fellowships and contracts comes from the European Union Recovery and Resilience Facility - Next Generation.Key DutiesDesign and implementation of robust AI systems with special emphasis on generative AI, such as Large Language Models (LLMs), Diffusion Models, Variational Autoencoders.Optimization of AI models for high-performance computing environments, enhancing scalability and processing efficiency.Interact efficiently with the HPC environment of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center
