Job description

IT@JH Research Computing is seeking a HPC Scientific Software Engineer to support faculty, researchers, and students engaged in high-performance and AI-driven research across Johns Hopkins University. The position is responsible for deploying, optimizing, and maintaining scientific software and computational workflows on advanced HPC Systems and related infrastructure. Working primarily within Linux-based environments, the engineer manages and troubleshoots complex software stacks, containerized applications, and GPU-accelerated workloads using tools such as SLURM, Easy build, Spack, etc. The role combines ticket-based user support with long-term project work, collaborating closely with interdisciplinary research groups to enhance system performance, streamline data-intensive workflows, and integrate cutting-edge technologies. The position operates with significant independence while coordinating regularly with systems engineers and research computing leadership to ensure reliable, high-efficiency computing resources that advance the university's scientific mission.
Specific Duties & Responsibilities
Software Deployment and Design (15%)
  • Develop and refine deployment strategies for scientific software on HPC and AI systems.
  • Design computational workflows, selecting optimal software configurations, and utilizing tools like Ansible for automation.
  • Assist teams in implementing, tuning, and optimizing AI models and gateway applications (e.g., XDMoD, Coldfront, Open OnDemand, CryoSPARC Live, SBGrid, AI Agents).

Performance Optimization (20%)
  • Analyze and optimize the performance of AI models and HPC applications, focusing on GPU-enabled computing.
  • Implement parallel processing, distributed computing, and resource management techniques for efficient job execution.

Integration and Optimization (15%)

  • Collaborate with the system team and software vendors (e.g., NVIDIA, Intel, Matlab) to optimize systems for maximum performance.
  • Utilize CUDA, DNN, TensorRT, and Intel Compilers to enhance system performance.

HPC Scientific Software Support (30%)
  • Manage and support scientific software deployment across HPC, cloud-based, and colocation facilities.
  • Oversee installation, configuration, and maintenance of HPC packages with tools like CMake, Make, EasyBuild, Spack, and Lua module files.

Collaboration and Mentorship (5%)
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams, including researchers, data scientists, and software developers, to address complex HPC/AI challenges.
  • Mentor junior engineers and foster a culture of continuous learning.

Technical Support and Training Workshops and Troubleshooting (15%)
  • Resolve complex technical issues and perform root cause analysis for HPC/AI software challenges.
  • Implement effective solutions to prevent recurrence and improve system reliability
  • Provide training workshops for researchers and students, focusing on troubleshooting, optimizing workflows, and effectively using HPC systems.

Learning and Development (5%)
  • Stay current with advances in HPC and AI technologies and methodologies.
  • Incorporate new research findings into existing systems to improve performance and capabilities.

About Johns Hopkins University

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Gilman believed that teaching and research go hand in hand—that success in one depends on success in the other—and that a modern university must do both well. He also believed that sharing our knowledge and discoveries would help make the world a better place. In 145 years, we haven’t strayed from that vision. This is still a destination for excellent, ambitious scholars and a world leader in teaching and research. Distinguished professors mentor students in the arts and music, humanities, social and natural sciences, engineering, international studies, education, business, and the health professions. Those same faculty members, along with their colleagues at the university’s Applied Physics Laboratory, have made us the nation’s leader in federal research and development funding every year since 1979. That’s a fitting distinction for America’s first research university, a place that has revolutionized higher education in the U.S. and continues to bring knowledge and discoveries to the world.
