Lead, HPC Engineer
One of Europe’s most exciting research organisations is on the hunt for a Lead engineer as part of their HPC team, who wants to be right at the heart of something meaningful. This is a place where big ideas, brilliant people and cutting-edge technology come together to tackle some of the most important questions. It’s collaborative, ambitious and refreshingly down to earth.
In this role, you’ll be the person who keeps the engines running. You’ll take ownership of high-performance compute and large-scale storage platforms, making sure they’re reliable, responsive and ready for whatever the scientists throw at them next. You’ll work closely with researchers and technology teams, oversee the HPC service desk, guide incident response when needed, and help shape the future direction of the platforms. You’ll also design and deliver training, support users, and step into a wider leadership role when required. It’s varied, hands-on and influential in all the right ways.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
They’re looking for someone who knows their way around HPC environments and large-scale storage, enjoys leading people as much as platforms, and communicates with clarity and warmth. You’ll be comfortable juggling priorities, working with different stakeholders, and finding practical solutions in a fast-moving research setting. If you’ve worked in science or biomedical research before, great. If not, curiosity and a collaborative mindset go a long way here.

In return, you’ll join an organisation that genuinely values its people. It’s open, supportive and driven by purpose, with excellent benefits and a culture that encourages ideas, learning and teamwork. You’ll be helping to power research that can change lives, alongside people who care deeply about what they do.
If you’re intrigued by the idea of leading cutting-edge platforms in a place where your work really matters, this is well worth a closer look. Apply now to find out more.
