Chalmers e-Commons works actively to develop the role of Systems Engineers in a research-based environment, providing an exciting and challenging work environment for the knowledgeable and ambitious computer expert with interests close to computing demands on the research frontier. Chalmers e-Commons Chalmers e-Commons is a university-wide initiative to further empower researchers and innovators at Chalmers by providing support, collaborative projects, and access to resources for the full range of digital aspects of research. Building on several earlier efforts and a top-level strategic decision, Chalmers e-Commons provides a unique set of integrated digital resources for researchers and innovators. The e-Infrastructure Team at Chalmers e-Commons The e-infrastructure team at Chalmers e-Commons operates, manages, and develops modern and exciting large-scale computer system environments used for AI and high-performance computing within cutting-edge science and technology research.The computer systems serve research both at Chalmers and nationally within the national e-infrastructure NAISS. The work in the team includes contacts and collaboration with other compute e-infrastructures, research infrastructures, and organisations both nationally and internationally. Job description The e-infrastructure team is now recruiting a new member who will take part in the work with compute clusters for AI and high-performance computing, cloud- and storage resources. More specifically, the resources are Linux-based, and include technologies like Virtualization, Containers, Ceph, Infiniband, OpenStack, SLURM, Ansible, etc. Hardware technologies include building and maintaining large-scale compute clusters and storage resources: For example, compute and storage resources for Chalmers and the national ML cluster Alvis. The high-performance computing environment is modern and continuously scaled and maintained to meet the demanding needs of research. Specific areas include: • Maintaining the physical hardware of large-scale clusters and storage, installing machines and networking, replacing faulty hardware, etc. • Configuration and documentation of large-scale computer resources. • Monitoring and securing systems and networking. • Setting up and running related services. You are also expected to take an active role in developing your skills in operating large-scale computing systems. Around 20% of your work can be spent developing skills in line with this overall direction. Contract terms Permanent employment Qualifications - An academic degree at the Bachelor level with a relevant technological background, or equivalent experience and knowledge. - Experience in the operation and management of Linux-based computer systems. - Experience in software development with programming languages like Python/shell scripting for systems engineering. - Experience in planning and executing projects and interest in your personal development. - Experience in working both individually and in collaborative projects - Good communication skills in English, both written and spoken You have good co-operation skills and the bility to listen and share your knowledge in collaborative projects. The following will add to your merits: - Documented experience of use of large-scale computer resources for research and/or education - Experience in deploying, configuring and/or monitoring Linux systems with automation tools - Experience in network setup, monitoring, and/or automation - A general interest in tinkering with computer hardware We offer Chalmers offers a cultivating and inspiring working environment in the coastal city of Gothenburg.  Read more about working at Chalmers and our benefits for employees.
