Build platform automation and Infrastructure-as-Code
Implement automation using tools such as Terraform, or similar
Standardize provisioning, configuration, and scaling of HPC environments
Enable scalable compute for engineering and AI workloads
Support simulation, Agentic workloads and AI/ML workloads requiring high compute capacity
Optimize performance, cost, and reliability of compute workloads
Contribute to platform architecture and evolution
Design and improve HPC and compute platform architecture
Guide teams on how to effectively use HPC, cloud compute resources and how to modernize their application for better performance.
Collaborate across teams and domains
Work closely with platform engineers, simulation engineering, and application teams
Align with cloud, network, and security teams on platform integration
Strengthen DevOps practices in HPC environments
Support journey towards modern software architecture such as CI/CD pipelines for infrastructure and platform components
