HPC Architect
We are looking for an experienced cloud-oriented (or hybrid) HPC Architect (cloud and on-prem) to design, optimize, and manage high-performance computing systems.
Location:
Quantori is an international team: we have colleagues who work not only from office but also remotely from all over the world.
Responsibilities:
- Hybrid Architecture Design: Architect and deploy scalable HPC clusters using on-prem and/or cloud-native HPC cluster managers (e.g., AWS ParallelCluster + Amazon EC2 / Azure CycleCloud + Azure VM Scale Sets / Google Cloud Cluster Toolkit or similar + Compute Engine), ensuring seamless integration with on-premises schedulers. Proven expertise with HPC schedulers and orchestration patterns (e.g. Slurm, cloud HPC cluster orchestration, batch orchestration)
- Design and optimize data architectures for large-scale HPC workloads, including high-throughput data movement between on-premises and cloud environments and integration with parallel file systems. Ensure data access, lifecycle, and reproducibility patterns to support scientific computing performance and operational requirements
- Design and implement high-performance networking solutions, including private dedicated connectivity and low-latency HPC interconnects (e.g., AWS Direct Connect / Azure ExpressRoute / Google Cloud Interconnect; AWS EFA / Azure HPC fabrics e.g. IB/ GCP HPC interconnect options etc.), to support low-latency MPI applications. Design high I/O workloads (parallel file system patterns) (e.g., AWS / GCP / Azure Managed Lustre or parallel FS deployments and/or self-managed Lustre/GPFS/BeeGFS), observability, reproducibility and operational excellence
- Define and maintain containerization standards using contanerization and related technologies to ensure binary compatibility across heterogeneous hardware and environments
What we expect:
- Knowledge of HPC-with-cloud integration strategies, experience with technical feasibility planning
- Excellent communication skills
- Strong understanding of regulated enterprise R&D environments
- Understanding scientific computing reproducibility requirements, relying on enterprise standard tooling
- Deep understanding of Amazon VPC /Google Cloud / Azure networking, peering and security group configurations
Nice to have:
- Experience in life-sciences
- Experience in specific applications in life-sciences, Jupyter, Matlab
- Network Engineering
We offer:
- Competitive compensation
- Remote or office work
- Flexible working hours
- Healthcare benefits: medical insurance and paid sick leave
- Continuous education, mentoring, and professional development programs
- A team with an excellent tech expertise
- Certifications paid by the company
