The Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS) develops and operates cutting-edge, high-performance computing (HPC) systems as an essential service facility for science. The centre enables world-class research through its scientific user lab, which is available to domestic and international researchers in academia, industry, and the business sector. The centre is operated by ETH Zurich and has offices in Lugano (headquarters) and Zurich.

Project background

With the convergence of HPC and cloud technology, supercomputing service providers like CSCS are striving to improve service portfolios that focus on large, complex, and diverse scientific and engineering applications. Effectively providing performant and capable storage systems that support the needs of HPC platforms running on a multi-tenant infrastructure is complex and challenging engineering work.

To this end, CSCS has open positions at our offices in Lugano for a Storage Engineer (Systems Engineering).

The main goal of this position is to implement and operate HPC storage services in a multi-tenant infrastructure. As a Storage Engineer, you will directly contribute to the designing, implementation, maintenance, and documentation of storage services for HPC.

Your contributions will directly impact the development and enhancement of CSCS’s HPC systems, thereby enhancing overall system functionality and efficiency.

Your profile

You should have a bachelor’s or higher degree in computer engineering, computer science, a relevant technical field, or equivalent practical experience.

You should have a sound knowledge of:

  • Generic filesystem aspects and functions (data, metadata, block-size, etc.),
  • Storage redundancy technologies (RAID, D-RAID, EC etc.),
  • Backup solutions (DMF, TSM, Veeam) and backup concepts,
  • Object Storage concepts and S3 service usage/implementation,
  • Automation tools and framework, including CI/CD processes and ecosystem (e.g., Gitlab CI, HashiCorp Vault).

Experience with the following is preferred, though there will be ample opportunities to learn and gain more experience with all of these skills on the job:

  • Versioning systems and CI/CD workflows such as ArgoCD,
  • Automated installation systems for physical servers, such as MAAS or Foreman,
  • Developing Ansible configurations,
  • Developing services on top of Kubernetes.
We offer

In an organization that values autonomy, ownership, and continuous learning, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to gain specialized, hands-on experience through activities characterized by the challenging aspects typical of the HPC field.

  • ETH Zurich is a family-friendly employer with excellent working conditions.
  • You can look forward to an exciting working environment, cultural diversity and attractive offers and benefits.
  • We value the diversity of our team and, to further enhance the diversity of our workforce, we particularly encourage women to apply.

Please include the following documents with your application:

  • CV
  • Relevant certificates and diplomas

We look forward to receiving your online application, including
