Join the team of scientists who support one of the most powerful computer centers on the planet. Los Alamos has a legacy of stretching the boundaries of computational performance and complexity, and we are not slowing down. From the Maniac II in 1952 through today’s hybrid processor Trinity platform, we have posted many speed records over the decades and are now driving toward Exascale.
Our High-Performance Computing Division provides production high performance computing systems services to the Laboratory. The High Performance Computing Environments group (HPC-ENV) takes responsibility for the broad range of HPC platforms, monitoring and data analytics, programming and runtime environments, software, application support and readiness, user support & services for a large and diverse customer base. We provide support and services to many production platforms at a world-class computing facility to ensure customers can accomplish their research and mission at extreme scale.
The focus for the HPC Consulting team is to support and enhance the productivity of the LANL HPC user community by providing quality technical support in a timely manner. We achieve this by providing customer focused, single point of contact for HPC systems, services, tools and technical support. The HPC Consulting Team provides support for all production HPC platforms in various networks, including help for programming languages, debugging, parallel computing, HPC operating systems, utilities, libraries, file systems and interconnects, scripting, archival storage, desktop backup (TSM), file transfer, HPC network, and Tri-Lab support. The Division’s goal is to create an effective HPC environment in which scientists can be as productive as possible. Additionally we support selected research activities that we deem important to our mission.

Where You Will Work
Located in northern New Mexico, Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) is a multidisciplinary research institution engaged in strategic science on behalf of national security. LANL enhances national security by ensuring the safety and reliability of the U.S. nuclear stockpile, developing technologies to reduce threats from weapons of mass destruction, and solving problems related to energy, environment, infrastructure, health, and global security concerns.
The High-Performance Computing Division (HPC) provides production high performance computing systems services to the Laboratory. Our work spans the early phases of acquisition, development, and production readiness of HPC platforms continuing to the maintenance and operation of these systems and the facilities in which they are housed. HPC also manages the network, parallel file system, storage, and visualization infrastructure associated with the HPC platforms. This division also supports the HPC user base directly and aids, at multiple levels, in the effective use of HPC to generate science. Additionally we support selected research activities in High Performance Computing that we deem important to our mission.
