Job description

High-Performance Computing (HPC) Solutions Architect

Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced HPC Solutions Architect to lead the design and modernization of advanced computing environments supporting mission-critical development. In this role, you will serve as the technical authority for designing, building, and potentially implementing a next-generation High-Performance Computing cluster.

You will translate customer goals and evolving CNO development needs into a secure, scalable technical architecture. The ideal candidate understands emerging HPC technologies, CI/CD pipelines, on-premises infrastructure, and the practical application of large language models (LLMs) within complex development environments.

Key Responsibilities

• Design the architecture, configuration, and system loadout for a next-generation HPC cluster.

• Develop a technical roadmap and reusable patterns that enable teams to adopt LLM-based solutions where they provide clear mission value.

• Launch high-return pilot projects and create streamlined templates, shared resources, and repeatable implementation approaches.

• Preserve the flexibility required for organizations to manage on-premises infrastructure when security or mission requirements demand it.

• Architect end-to-end solutions for complex CNE services, including integration patterns connecting legacy systems with modern HPC environments.

• Ensure proposed solutions maintain required security controls while improving performance, scalability, reliability, and usability.

• Assess existing infrastructure and work with stakeholders to identify services operating on aging or end-of-life platforms.

• Document system dependencies, evaluate the continuing value of existing services, and develop modernization priorities based on end-of-life timelines, mission impact, cost efficiency, and user needs.

• Design modern workflows and development experiences that improve how CNE developers interact with their tools and environments.

• Incorporate CI/CD practices and emerging technologies into the broader platform strategy.

• Provide technical leadership throughout the design, build, integration, and potential implementation of the new environment.

• Help establish CNO as a premier environment for software development by creating a modern platform that attracts and retains exceptional technical talent.
