LINUX SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR - Part Time
|
The Center for Brain and Cognition, at Universitat Pompeu Fabra offers a position in Linux system administration for its high‐performance computer cluster. Our cluster currently provides service to twenty users and consists of forty servers and approximately eight hundred computational cores. The new administrator will install and maintain software and also monitor and solve problems regarding the cluster and its associated infrastructure. Emphasis will be placed on the automation and documentation of the administrative tasks. Our cluster is used mainly to perform numerical simulations of models neural systems. The programs carrying out those simulations are written in Python or MATLAB. We may eventually require the administrator to work on the optimization of those programs, once the administration tasks are sufficiently automated.
