Jobbannons

Shape the future of high-performance computing! The European DARE project is pioneering next-generation processing technologies, leveraging RISC-V and Vector architectures, and we're looking for a driven individual to make fundamental research contributions. This is your chance to develop your HPC research skills, including teaching, and cutting-edge engineering, while contributing to a project that will redefine the landscape of computing. Join our fantastic team of researchers and engineers in the beautiful and vibrant city of Gothenburg, on the Swedish west coast.

Information about the project

Your research work will consist in the high performance code generation, mainly targeting the upcoming RISC-V-based multiprocessor systems developed in the European DARE project. The focus of DARE are long vector/matrix multicore architectures. The goal of our team is to develop effective runtime and compiler support to program these architectures using the SYCL, OpenMP and OneDNN programming models.

The core team currently consists of nine researchers, five male and three female. We are part of the computing systems unit, which includes four professors. The team participates in many Swedish and European projects, and also collaborates with external institutes such as Riken R-CCS. We meet twice a week to discuss updates and research topics. In addition the team leader holds an individual supervision meetings with PhD students.

Our research infrastructure is provided mainly by NAISS (National Academic Infrastructure for Supercomputing in Sweden) and C3SE (Chalmers Centre for Computational Science and Engineering). Our partners and funding projects provide access to hardware testbeds, such as RISC-V vector processors, ARM-SVE processors, x86 clusters, FPGAs, etc.

As a postdoctoral researcher you will be given significant autonomy and responsibility. You will participate in the co-supervision of PhD students, and you will be involved in teaching. Courses on supervision and teaching skills are offered by Chalmers. The goal is to effectively prepare you for a future academic career. Research-only positions can be considered.

Main responsibilities

• Lead and contribute to our research on vectorization and multicore parallelism with SYCL
• Lead and contribute to our research on adaptive parallelism with OpenMP
• Research how to efficiently compile SYCL and OpenMP programs on RISC-V platforms
• Co-supervise PhD students
• Participate in the coordination of our activities in the DARE project
• Participate in teaching activities

Qualifications

You have a PhD degree in a field related to High Performance Computing or Computer Architecture. You are highly motivated, self-propelled, energetic, independent and with a well-developed analytical problem-solving ability. As a person, you are empathetic, loyal and have high ethical standards. Your communication skills in English (literal as well as oral) are of a high quality. Swedish is not a requirement but Chalmers offers Swedish courses.

• The date shown in your doctoral degree certificate is the date we use, as this is the date you have met all requirements for the doctoral degree. Exceptions from the 3-year limit can be made for longer periods resulting from parental leave, sick leave or military service.

Contract terms

This postdoc position is a full-time temporary employment for two years with the possibility of a one-year extension.
