Salk Institute for Biological Studies
San Diego, CA, USA
The Salk Biocomputation Initiative focuses on the data intensive needs present in biological science research today. Large datasets are routinely generated by genome sequencing, gene expression profiling, advanced microscopy & video imaging to name a few experimental techniques. The Institute must manage the storage, transfer and processing of this data, both on-premise but also by using the capabilities available in the cloud. This position will design, implement and support the Institute's framework for cloud computing, working collaboratively with scientists to migrate their data pipelines to the cloud. As part of the initiative, the position will provide training needed for longterm sustainable cloud-based compute and data storage in support of reasarch at Salk. The position will assist hundreds of investigators and core facilities to accelerate and achieve research goals. Reporting to the Executive Director Research Operations and as a domain...
