Offer Description
Your responsibilities
The physics experiments of the Large Hadron Collider are preparing to receive an unprecedented amount of data from the accelerator. To be able to process that data, the very latest computing techniques will have to be used, and new ones will have to be researched with the help of industrial partners. Join the ATLAS Experiment to develop core software for a next generation of physics data taking, for the benefit of all current and future High Energy Physics experiments!
The selected candidate will become part of the ATLAS Data Processing Group (EP-APD). They will take an active role in developing task scheduling techniques using the C++ language for efficiently dispatching data processing algorithms to heterogeneous computing resources. Ensuring that all available hardware resources (CPU, GPU, FPGA) in the next generation trigger system of ATLAS and the other LHC experiments could be maximally utilised by the trigger algorithms.
The candidate will work as part of the Next Generation Triggers program of CERN, a multi-year R&D project benefiting all of the LHC experiments.
