Gesellschaft für wissenschaftliche Datenverarbeitung mbH Göttingen Platform Developer (Frontend/Backend) (m/f/d) Job posting no. 20250829 The GWDG is seeking a Platform Developer (Frontend/Backend) (m/f/d) to join an interdisciplinary team of HPC experts in the working group “Computing” (AG C) with a regular working week of 39 hours (100%). Remuneration is in accordance with the collective agreement for the German public service (federal government); depending on qualifications, the position will be grade E 13. The position is suitable for part-time work and initially limited to four years. The GWDG strives for long-term cooperation. If interested, there is the possibility of a doctorate. The Gesellschaft für wissenschaftliche Datenverarbeitung mbH Göttingen (GWDG) is the university computing center for the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen and a computing and IT competence center for the Max Planck Society. The provision of high-performance HPC systems has been one of its tasks for over 40 years. In 2020, the University of Göttingen / GWDG was accepted as one of eight computing centers in the National High-Performance Computing (NHR) network. The GWDG operates the HLRN-IV system “Emmy”, which is one of the most powerful computers in the world. As a national supercomputing center, the GWDG provides technical support to researchers and students from various scientific domains, including earth system science, life science, and engineering. We also participate in both national and international research projects. At the same time, we aim to improve our close collaboration with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and specialized computing centers, including the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ) and the Institute for Advanced Simulation Jülich (IAS-JSC). To add a new chapter to our commitment to providing innovative technical services, we are looking for a highly motivated candidate to be part of the QUICS (Quantum Innovation and Computing for SME) project. QUICS aims to provide low-threshold, secure, and reliable access to quantum resources for SMEs via an online portal. In addition to providing access, the goal is also to support companies in identifying and implementing meaningful use cases for quantum computing. Therefore, the successful candidate should have prior experience with web platform development and should be an enthusiast of innovative computing technologies, e.g., quantum computing.
