• Implement CI/CD pipelines to manage and deploy updates to the HPC cluster efficiently.
• Set up and configure HPC clusters to meet specific requirements and workloads.
• Manage and maintain HPC hardware components such as CPUs and GPUs, along with the necessary software.
• Conduct regression testing to verify the functionality and performance of non-GXP HPC clusters.

Workload Scheduler Management:

• Install and configure workload managers and schedulers like LSF, SLURM, and PBS Pro.
• Manage the addition and removal of compute nodes and adjust the priority of master and slave nodes.
• Develop and manage resource policies and rules to optimize cluster performance.
• Configure and allocate resources such as CPU and memory, and profile applications for optimal performance.
• Address and resolve issues related to schedulers, daemons, and license servers.

Network and High-Performance Connectivity Management:

• Install and configure HPC interconnect networks.
• Design and configure the network topology for HPC clusters.
• Ensure the maintenance and monitoring of InfiniBand connectivity.
• Resolve connectivity issues related to InfiniBand, RoCE, and Ethernet.

Monitoring and Reports:

• Produce daily health check reports for the HPC cluster.
• Automate monitoring scripts to streamline the monitoring process.
• Conduct periodic reviews of reports and audit trails.

OS Administration and Management:

• Install and configure operating systems for HPC clusters.
• Address OS-related issues such as CPU, memory, and SWAP utilization, and perform application file system cleanup.
• Ensure application service continuity by performing pre and post checks from both OS and application perspectives during planned and unplanned outages.

Applications and Tools:

• Install HPC libraries and tools such as MPI and compilers.
• Install and configure HPC applications, both commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) and open source, and manage packages using Spack.
• Apply patches and upgrades to HPC applications.
• Resolve issues related to HPC applications.

HPC Storage Management:

• Administer and configure HPC storage systems.
• Oversee the administration of HPC file systems.
• Monitor and troubleshoot HPC storage systems.
• Manage backup and tape library systems.
