Stanford Research Computing | Stanford, CA (next to Palo Alto) | Full-time | Four positions | HYBRID/ONSITE
Stanford Research Computing (https://srcc.stanford.edu) is a collaboration between University IT and the Vice Provost and Dean of Research. We operate HPC environments for researchers, we do one-time consultations on projects (from software and pipelines, to data management, to physical building design and fit-out), and we provide contract support for individual Labs, Departments, and Schools.
We have three open positions:
• Research Computing Manager: Our current IC:Manager ratio is 7, which is too high, so we're hiring another manager for our group! You'll oversee a number of ICs, help them plan & prioritize their work, make policy decisions, and contribute to Research Computing's strategic direction. You'll also be interacting with groups throughout the University, as a service provider and as a policy maker. More info: http://phxc1b.rfer.us/stanford0_zslt
• Research Storage Consultant: We have lots of storage environments (both on-prem & cloud); it can be confusing to identify which is the best for a given purpose, and how to take full advantage of it. Your job will be to help Students & Faculty figure out what storage is best to use, and get them started on using it! More info: http://phxc1b.rfer.us/stanfordwvasls
• Data Center Engineer: We hired a Data Center Engineer nt too long ago, You'll be based full-time at our primary research data center in Menlo Park (on the SLAC campus). This position includes everything from racking and cabling to maintaining and troubleshooting power distribution (415v Starline bus), UPS (spinning-mass), generators, VFDs, air handlers, chillers, PLCs, and the like.

(For those curious: Yes, we did hire a Data Center Engineer recently, but this posting is different: One of our existing Engineers was prompted to Data Center Director, causing a new Engineer position to open up!)
The data center position is onsite; the others are hybrid. If you don't already live in the Bay Area, we provide a relocation incentive. Depending on where you live, we provide free transit passes. Unfortunately, if you don't commute, you will have to pay for parking for the days you're on-site (except at the data center). There is some on-call around the holidays. We get a 403(b) match, good healthcare, and 30+ days off per year (holidays + vacation). All Benefits are all publicly documented at https://cardinalatwork.stanford.edu/benefits-rewards. If you have questions, feel free to reply here or email me (the info is in my profile)!
