The Center for High Performance Computing (CHPC) is seeking students and other interested individuals to fill part-time positions that support CHPC’s mission to enable research and innovation through advanced computing infrastructure, technical services, and user support at the University of Utah. Program participants—including undergraduate students, graduate students — receive hands on experience in a professional technical environment. Positions are structured to provide meaningful project work, defined learning or professional development objectives, and supervised access to CHPC systems appropriate to the role.

This position will be on the software development team, where part-time employees will actively participate in the full enterprise software development lifecycle, data engineering, visualization and analytics, as well as other opportunities to learn and work with high-performance computing (HPC), research computing, ML/AI, and other related domains.

Candidates selected for this position who are active students will be encouraged to prioritize their coursework over most job duties. This position is intended to complement a formal secondary education, not distract from it.
