The Role
The Digital Science Migration Engineer – Artificial Intelligence is responsible for facilitating the usage of DSTG’s cutting-edge HPC and cloud platforms primarily for Artificial Intelligence applications. Working independently with guidance from senior staff and in small teams, they will: on-board researchers and migrate researcher workflows.
The on-boarding function of this key client facing role involves leveraging sound knowledge of specialised Research domains to demonstrate HPC, cloud, and research SecDevOps environment operations to researchers. This includes highlighting best practice, acceptable use, support boundaries, and recommended supplementary training to uplift security, data management, parallel computing and science reproducibility postures with tangible outcomes for Defence research.
The workflow migration function requires the application of science and technology principles to novel and innovative workflow activities in moderately complex scientific computing environments. This includes developing an understanding of research workflows on existing systems and environments, such as high-end research computers, and creating and executing migration plans that map these unique research workflows to DSSC platforms while maintaining elements such as provenance, data integrity and consistency, research solution consistency (validation) between existing and new systems.
About our Team
Defence Science and Technology Group (DSTG) is developing its Computational and Data Intensive Sciences (CDIS) capability, supported by a new High Performance Computing (HPC) Centre, to enable DSTG to remain at the forefront of Defence research. DSTG’s HPC will provide world class computational and data systems for innovative advanced research, development, modelling, simulation and experimentation to optimise Defence platform design and operational performance, force development and optimisation, and to solve difficult and complex real-world Defence problems.
Within Digital Science and Scientific Computing (DSSC), the CDIS Directorate conducts research and innovates where Science and Technology (S&T) converges with computing infrastructure to deliver increased research productivity and enabling new science discovery for Defence researchers. This encompasses DSTG's HPC and cloud platforms and multi-disciplinary S&T areas like workflow and data optimisation (including machine learning), data visualisation, computer system benchmarking and code optimisation; and provides expert S&T advice in those areas. With a strong emphasis on security that is critical to Defence, it extends to include research SecDevOps which delivers secure computational environments optimised for research workflows, with ready-to-use common computational S&T tools, trusted code repositories, and container support.
