Description du poste

Your mission :

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) represents a significant advancement in radio telescope technology. Beyond its astronomical objectives, it emphasizes sustainable energy utilization. As the SKA project develops, there is an increased demand for sophisticated computational infrastructures. Instruments such as GPUs and FPGAs emerge as pivotal for enhancing SKA's operational efficiency.

The Murchison Widefield Array (MWA) in Western Australia is another instrumental component in radio astronomy. Its objectives span from probing the early epochs of the universe to observing solar events. This endeavor is not merely observational; it demands robust computational capabilities. Optimizing MWA's data processing with contemporary computing advancements is imperative.

EPFL's SCITAS (Scientific IT & Application Support) plays an integral role in this context. SCITAS offers critical computational support not just to SKA and MWA, but also to other projects such as EUROfusion. Within SCITAS, as an HPC Application Expert, you will contribute to ensuring high-performance and energy-efficient computing for two projects related to the SKA and MWA radio telescopes.
Main duties and responsibilities include :
  • HPC scientific application development and optimization in collaboration with EPFL scientists
  • Scientific software R&D in order to advance the platform technology
  • Operational support to users when needed
