# Research Computing Facilitator

**1.0 FTE · CARC · Research Facilitation Team · posted as Systems/Network Analyst 2 · UNM Jobs requisition 37492**

**[Apply for this position](https://unm.csod.com/ux/ats/careersite/18/home/requisition/37492){target=_blank}**

## The role

You sit between researchers and the machines. You will consult with principal
investigators and their labs to scope computing needs; build and maintain
Linux servers, workstations, and virtual machines; install and troubleshoot
scientific software across Python, R, MATLAB, and C/C++; and move groups onto
CARC's HPC systems or cloud platforms when their local resources run out. You
will also configure AI-assisted and agent-based tools for research computing —
automation, troubleshooting, and documentation — inside real security and
data-governance requirements.

## What you bring

* A bachelor's degree and at least one year of directly related experience.
* Linux administration (Rocky, RHEL, Ubuntu, or similar) and scripting in Bash
  or Python.
* The presentation skills to make a complicated idea land with technical and
  non-technical researchers alike.

Preferred: HPC support, cloud provisioning, GitHub collaboration, AI-agent
deployment, and experience with sensitive-data practice (CUI, FERPA).
