Postdoctoral Researcher / Computer Scientist in High-Performance Computing (HPC)

The Exascale Computing Research centre in Paris, France, is looking for a:

POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER / COMPUTER SCIENTIST IN HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING

The position offers:
* Work on research and development in the area of scientific computing and medical imaging.
* Adapting, tuning and redesigning code.                                                                                                * Performance evaluation on innovative computing architectures.
* Work at the forefront of scientific computing on innovative computing systems.
* Collaboration with large research organisations and international partners.

The successful candidate will have:
* A Ph.D. degree in computer science, computational physics or a related discipline.
* Experience in the design and implementation of large codes (C/C++).
* Experience in Code Profiling and Performance Analysis.
* Good knowledge of the Linux operating system and its software stack.
* Good knowledge of microprocessor and memory architecture.
* Parallelism (MPI / Shared Memory – Multithreading) knowledge.
* A track record of conducting independent high-quality research.
* Excellent written and oral communication skills.
* English and French languages required.
* High motivation and the ability to work in a team.

The Exascale Computing Research centre is a joint laboratory between Intel, CEA, Genci and UVSQ. It is focused on collectively understanding the challenges involved in scaling software from today's capabilities and be ready to take advantage of the innovative architectures leading to ExaScale high-performance computers (supercomputers) expected before the end of this decade.

The mission of the lab is to explore existing technologies (tools, algorithms and programming models) enabling exascale applications and to identify what needs to be modified or re-written. Analysing and characterizing applications using highly profiled tools will guide the changes to be made and support the performance model on forthcoming architectures.
