CC*DNI Engineer: Leading the Way for Research Computing at Syracuse University and Beyond

对校园网络基础设施（CI）的投资对于回答许多科学和工程领域最基本的问题至关重要。雪城大学（Syracuse University）设立了一个校园CI工程师职位，以提供技术专长和领导力，以实现CI现有投资的潜力，并指导未来研究和教育投资的战略。校园CI工程师的科学驱动力来自不同的项目，包括引力波天文学、生物物理、理论凝聚态物理、计算流体动力学、高能物理、地球科学、软物质物理、生物医学和化学工程。通过允许锡拉丘兹大学的研究人员更好地使用CI，包括研究计算云、身份管理服务、网络、高吞吐量计算和高性能计算，无论是在校内还是校外，CI工程师都允许锡拉丘兹大学的研究人员推进科学发现。雪城大学的校园网络基础设施是本科生和研究生教育的重要资源。CI工程师职责的一个重要部分是降低初级研究人员访问CI资源的障碍。CI工程师的活动超出了与锡拉丘兹校园的接触，领导锡拉丘兹大学与国家网络基础设施社区的接触，并在校园内就共同目标进行广泛合作。

Investment in campus cyberinfrastructure (CI) is essential to answering many of the most fundamental questions in science and engineering. Syracuse University has created a campus CI engineer position to provide the technical expertise and leadership to realize the potential of existing investments in CI and to guide strategy for future investments for research and education. Science drivers for the campus CI engineer come from a diverse range of projects including, gravitational-wave astronomy, biological physics, theoretical condensed matter physics, computational fluid dynamics, high-energy physics, Earth sciences, soft matter physics, and biomedical and chemical engineering. By allowing Syracuse researchers to better use CI, including research computing clouds, identity management services, networking, high-throughput computing, and high-performance computing, both on and off campus, the CI engineer allows Syracuse University researchers to advance scientific discovery.Syracuse University's campus cyberinfrastructure serves as an important resource for education of undergraduate and graduate students. An essential part of the CI engineer's responsibilities is lowering the barriers to access to CI resources for beginning researchers. The CI engineer's activities extend beyond engagement with the Syracuse campus, leading Syracuse University's engagement with the national cyberinfrastructure community, and collaborating broadly across campuses on shared goals.
