Project Manager

Project Manager Al-Khawarizmi Institute Of Computer Science, Pakistan

Al-Khawarizmi Institute of Computer Science (KICS), UET, Lahore, is setting up a High Performance Computing and Communication (HPCC) laboratory, which will be equipped with state-of-the-art multi-core processors based systems and 1 / 10 Gbps high-speed networking gear. This facility will be developed and operated with the collaboration of Cisco Systems (Pakistan). This facility will be the first of its kind in Pakistan to conduct cutting-edge research and development. It will address performance engineering challenges due to : (1) growing disparities among processor, memory, and I / O subsystem performance; (2) increasing number of cores on chip multiprocessors; and (3) distributed service oriented architectures with high-speed networks. This facility presents an unparalleled work environment for hands-on learning and innovations to push the envelope of performance engineering. We believe that such environments diminish the learning and innovation potential and cannot stimulate leading-edge development. In contrast, we provide you the opportunity to master cutting-edge processor and network technologies and develop tools and applications to facilitate their wider acceptance. These tools and applications will be adopted by research and industry through open-source offerings from KICS in the future, which will enhance your international visibility and prospects for a healthy growth of your professional career. We shall provide you the opportunity to be a part of a global team that develops open-source performance engineering tools. You will be expected to confront the formidable technical challenges of designing and developing these state-of-the-art tools for a rapidly growing market. If you demonstrate significant contributions to this project, you will be offered the opportunity to work for Cisco Systems (Pakistan) for an interim period leading to a regular position in Cisco global operations. If you have the talent and ability to face challenges, please contact us. We offer competitive salary packages and an environment that encourages and rewards professional growth. Responsibilities
