The Cyprus Institute (CyI) is a European non-profit Science and Technology oriented Educational and Research Institution based in Cyprus and led by an acclaimed Board of Trustees. The research agenda of CyI is pursued at its five Research Centres: The Computation-based Science and Technology Research Centre (CaSToRC), the Science and Technology in Archaeology and Culture Research Centre (STARC), the Energy Environment Water Research Centre (EEWRC), the Climate and Atmosphere Research Centre (CARE-C), and the Science and Technology Driven Policy and Innovation Research Centre (STeDI-RC). Considerable cross-centre interaction is a characteristic of the Institute’s culture.
The Cyprus Institute invites applications for a highly qualified and motivated individual to join the Institute as an Associate Research Scientist, and pursue Research & Development (R&D) in the areas of High-Performance Computing (HPC), High-Performance Data Analytics (HPDA) or large-scale Machine Learning (ML). The successful candidate will join both the research and engineering teams of the EuroCC2 project , and will be leading support projects with industry/academia/public sector, to support the EuroHPC National Competence Center (NCC) of Cyprus.
About the EuroCC2 project
EuroCC2 is a pan-European project, involving over 30 countries, with the main objective of advancing the competencies of European communities in High-Performance Computing and High-Performance Data Analytics. The Computation-based Science and Technology Research Center (CaSToRC) of the Cyprus Institute is the National Competence Centre for HPC, and as part of EuroCC2, aims to promote advanced technologies in Cyprus, with a focus on HPC, HPDA, machine learning, artificial intelligence and computational modeling/simulation. The main aims for EuroCC2 in Cyprus include strengthening these technical competencies of the island, advancing competitiveness in research and innovation, improving the effectiveness of government services and promoting innovation by engaging with industry. Particular effort is placed on maximizing the socioeconomic impact of advanced technologies through increased collaboration with academia, industry, the public sector, and other national projects.
Position Description
The EuroCC2 Associate Research Scientist will be working in Research and support projects that mostly involve HPC, HPDA and large-scale Machine Learning. The main goal of these projects will be to enable academic, public and private organizations in Cyprus to develop their HPC, HPDA, applied data science, and computational modelling skills and to benefit from the growing potential of these technologies. The selected candidate will be working closely with CyI Faculty, Research staff, the Engineering team, as well as with external organizations towards achieving this goal. This position offers a unique opportunity for exciting R&D using state-of-the-art HPC, “Big Data”, and Data Science (DS)/ML methods, and for interacting with both researchers and users of these technologies. In addition, the successful candidate is expected to actively pursue funding opportunities, contribute in proposal preparation and be involved in scientific publications.
The initial period of the appointment will be for a duration of 21 months, with the possibility of renewal subject to performance and availability of funds.
