User Services Programmer/Consultants The Purdue University Computing Center has positions open for computing professionals in its User Services group. These openings result from two major new activities at the center: 1. Purdue is one of three organizations recently designated by the National Science Foundation to provide supercomputing services to NSF grantees around the country. These services will be provided on our Control Data Corporation CYBER 205, a vector supercomputer. The 205 is front-ended with a three-machine CDC-6000 system as well as with a network of VAX-11/780's running UNIX 4.2 BSD. 2. The center is planning to install an IBM 3083 system this fall. The IBM system is being acquired to provide access to software systems that are not available on our other systems and to provide exposure to the IBM world for our data processing oriented education programs. We will be running VM/SP and CMS. The positions to be filled involve user consulting, short course teaching, development/conversion and installation of subprogram libraries and application oriented packages, and technical writing/documentation. All of the positions require a BS in Computer Sciences, Mathematics, or a related area; advanced degrees are preferred. Candidates must be proficient in both written and verbal communication. To support the CYBER 205, emphasis will be on the development and support of vector numerical libraries. Candidates for these positions should have a strong background in mathematics and numerical analysis. To support the IBM 3083, emphasis will be on consulting, documentation, and courseware development for VM/SP, CMS, SAS, and a whole range of language and applications support products. Related experience is required.
