POSITION TYPE: Exempt Position, Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences /
School of Pharmacy
FUNCTIONAL TITLE: Systems Programmer
DESCRIPTION: This position provides system administration for both the
Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences (PSC) and Pharmaceutical Research
Computing (PRC) of the Department of Pharmaceutical Health Services
Research in the School of Pharmacy. This position will maintain all the
computational resources, facilitate their replacement and help direct
expansion of the scientific computing capabilities of both the PSC
department (80%) and PRC (20%).
The research programs within PSC department involve an extensive amount
of scientific computing. Accordingly, the PSC department has a variety
of computing, storage, and backup systems. These include a 48 processor
Linux cluster running 2.8 GHz Athlon processors, an Opteron cluster with
25 dual core 2.4 GHz Athlon Opteron nodes, a 32 processor Linux cluster

Linux-based workstations, multiple color HP laser printers, a 2.5
Terabyte RAID storage system including 4 dual processor 2.8 GHz Althon
nodes along with tape backup (Amanda) and an additional 2.5 Terabyte
RAID storage system. These resources include workstations that connect
to the departmental NMR and X-ray spectrometers.
The research programs within PRC primarily involve data management and
analytic computing. The PRC owned computer system consists of Solaris
and Linux based servers, Network Area Storage devices, and peripheral
tape (DLT) readers.
Responsibilities will include insuring the security of the local
scientific computing environment, user account management, direction,
maintenance and upgrades of system hardware and software, including
end-user scientific application software, as well as the management of
any backup systems.
REQUIREMENTS: Requires at least 4 years of appropriate education,
experience and/or training with networked centrally operated and
supported computing systems.
The ideal candidate will be very familiar with operating systems
commonly used in scientific computing (Unix, Linux, Irix, Solaris),
Amanda backup system and related-technologies including multiprocessing,
distributed computing and networking (e.g., NFS). The individual should
also be very comfortable connecting these systems to each other as well
as PCs based on the Windows and Macintosh OS X platforms. The position
will require familiarity with contemporary TCP/IP networks and their
technologies.
