Technergetics is seeking to hire a Systems Engineer to support the AFRL (Airforce Research Laboratory) in Rome, New York and other DoD and Performer locations across the country. The primary goal of the QBI program is to determine if any emerging approaches to quantum computing can achieve industrially useful operation exponentially faster than conventional predictions.
Requirements
- Strong expertise in Linux systems administration (CentOS, Ubuntu) and shell scripting (Bash, Python, PowerShell)
- Experience with containerized environments (Docker, Singularity) and workload orchestration tools (Kubernetes, Slurm, etc.)
- Knowledge and experience with standard Systems Engineering (SE) frameworks and practices (SysML, DoDAF, etc.); Experience with DoE SE practices is a plus.
- Experience with HPC scheduling systems (Slurm, PBS, Grid Engine) and parallel file systems (Lustre, GPFS, etc.)
- Knowledge of benchmarking methodologies, performance analysis, and GPU/CPU optimization
- Experience with secure infrastructure, air-gapped environments, and data transfer policies
- Experience with development/execution of modeling and simulation tools and related software tools and techniques
Responsibilities
- Rapidly digest large quantities of complex Performer-specific technical details, perform relevant independent evaluations, and generate standardized Government artifacts summarizing independent assessments of that material
- Evaluate quantum computing architectures, devices, algorithms, and applications including utility and maturity
- Identify Performer subsystems and components required to successfully design and construct the system
- Discover, develop, implement, execute, evaluate, analyze, articulate, and justify models and simulations at the component, subsystem, and system levels
- Assess DARPA and Performer requirements; capture and document the level of maturity of these elements
- Identify, assess, and capture design, development, and integration risk
- Identify the Performer’s interface approach
Other
- Remote performance is expected for this position and Technergetics will consider candidates from across the United States.
- Regardless of location, a successful candidate can expect to travel to the Washington DC area (DARPA), and Support or Performer sites across the country 10%-40% of any given month.
- International travel is required for some Performers on this project.
- Due to the clearance required for this position, only U.S. citizens are eligible to apply; as outlined in Executive Order 12968: Access to Classified Information, eligibility for access to classified information may only be granted to employees who are United States citizens.
- Applicants will also be subject to a security investigation and must meet and maintain eligibility requirements for, at minimum, SECRET access to classified information.
