CC*IIE Engineer: Bridging Campus IT and Research Computing at UCF

UCF已经建立了一个网络基础设施工程师（CI工程师）的位置，作为UCF的计算机服务电信组织和校园研究计算社区之间的桥梁，以及催化剂和链接到CI工程师的更广泛的社区。 这个新的CI工程师职位利用了正在UCF构建的研究网络。该职位通过专注于满足当前和未来研究需求的网络基础设施，扩大了UCF进行基础研究的能力。 该职位的职责包括UCF的研究网络和科学DMZ的扩展，与校园IT人员密切合作，UCF的长期网络基础设施计划的扩展和执行，以及在其他机构日益增长的网络基础设施专业人员的更广泛社区的参与，包括区域（通过佛罗里达LambdaRail）和国家（通过Internet2）。 此外，这一努力有助于通过促进和参与与使用软件定义的网络和高性能研究网络的性能监控有关的研究来满足校园研究的加速数据传输需求。UCF的全职网络基础设施工程师职位预计将扩大和改善教师，研究生研究人员和本科生对高性能计算资源的访问，校园内外都有 此外，该大学希望这个CI工程师职位通过参与全国各地大学不断增长的CI工程师社区，帮助扩大对以研究为重点的网络基础设施最佳实践的普遍理解。

UCF has established a Cyber Infrastructure Engineer (CI Engineer) position to serve as a bridge between UCF's Computer Services & Telecommunications organization and the campus research computing community, as well as a catalyst and link to the broader community of CI Engineers. This new CI Engineer position leverages the research network that is being constructed at UCF. This position expands UCF's capability to perform basic research by focusing on cyber infrastructure dedicated to meeting current and future research needs. Responsibilities for this position include the expansion of UCF's research network and Science DMZ in close operation with campus IT staff, extension and execution of UCF's long-term Cyber-Infrastructure plan, and participation in the wider community of growing Cyber-Infrastructure professionals at other institutions, both regionally (through Florida LambdaRail) and nationally (through Internet2). Additionally, this effort helps meet the accelerating data transfer needs of campus research by facilitating and participating in research relating to the use of software defined networking and performance monitoring of high-performance research networks.UCF's full-time cyber infrastructure engineer position is expected to expand and improve access for faculty, graduate student researchers, and undergraduates to high performance computing resources, both on and off campus. Moreover, the University expects this CI Engineer position to help broaden the general understanding of best practices for research-focused cyber infrastructure by participating in the growing community of CI engineers at universities throughout the country.
