The Role and Department
Durham University's Department of Computer Science and the Institute for Data Science have recently secured multiple research projects within the remit of Digital Research Infrastructure (DRI) upskilling. These projects aim to create an upskilling landscape - predominantly for simulations and AI running on HPC machinery - for the whole UK DRI community. This includes creating material for this upskilling, organising upskilling events, but also understanding the needs and requirements of the target community. Therefore, we are searching for a community manager who can liaise with the UK's DRI landscape - this includes research software engineers, platforms experts, PhDs, PDRAs and academics - and build up a thriving community which is committed to world-leading research.
