  • Experience troubleshooting software installation and runtime issues (e.g., library dependencies, environment variables).
  • Experience with installing, configuring, and troubleshooting MATLAB in an HPC context.
  • Experience providing user support via a ticket-based system (e.g., ServiceNow).
  • Experience compiling applications from source code (e.g., using GNU Make, CMake), particularly for GPU-enabled codes using platforms like CUDA or KOKKOS.
  • Strong, methodical problem-solving skills for diagnosing application-level issues.
  • Excellent detail-orientation with the ability to follow complex procedural and administrative protocols.
  • Ability to clearly convey technical information to users of all skill levels.
  • Ability to work effectively as part of a larger technical team within defined role boundaries.
  • Ability to work a designated schedule while maintaining attendance and punctuality.
  • Demonstrated ability to rapidly learn the technical specifics of new and complex software packages.

Preferred Qualifications:
