| Position Description: |
| The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the Bergische University of Wuppertal, Germany invites outstanding candidates to apply for a in the field of Experimental Elementary Particle Physics. The position is in the group of Prof. Dr. Christian Zeitnitz. The experimental particle physics group is
involved in the ATLAS experiment at CERN (Switzerland) and has been
involved in processing large amounts of scientific data delivered by the
experiment for many years. The position's remuneration is according to the salary scale E 13 TV-L with 66 % of the collectively agreed working hours. The appointment is for the next possible date and limited in time up to 3 years. Professional and personal requirements for employment:
Tasks and Requirements:
The Bergische Universität operates one of the so-called Tier 2
centers of the ATLAS experiment and is heavily involved in the university's
Pleiades computer (http://pleiades.uni-wuppertal.de). In the next phase of the
experiments, data volumes will increase into the Exabyte range, requiring new
concepts for processing.
Further developments of computing concepts and software for distributed
computing in the context of heterogeneous computing resources (from dedicated
computing clusters to HPC centers) is the goal of the BMBF collaborative
project FIDIUM, within which your work will be located. Within the scope of the work there is the possibility to do a PhD.
The
development work uses existing open source software
packages, either adapting them to the needs or developing
them further. All work will take place within
the framework of the joint project.
Close cooperation with working groups
at other universities and institutes is therefore a prerequisite for the success of
the project. Please submit your application including a cover letter, CV, proof of successful completion of studies, references, proof of severe disability as PDF file, if applicable through the online portal of the University of Wuppertal: https://stellenausschreibungen.uni-wuppertal.de following the reference number: 21327 . |
