Storage Architect
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. Must not repeat job title as heading. Must not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Must preserve all substantive information.
We need to parse the posting.
Key content:
- Intro paragraph: "At Jefferson Lab, you’ll champion cutting-edge science and operational excellence while shaping the future of discovery. Join us and make your mark – where excellence meets purpose, and great minds truly matter." This is about the role? Could be "About the role". Also includes pay range: "The good-faith pay range for this role is $118,400 - $186,500 per year. Actual compensation may vary and may be above the posted range based on factors such as a candidate's skills, experience, education, certifications, and work location." That's Pay section.
- Then "What Your Job Will Be Like" paragraph describing HPDF etc. That's Responsibilities? Actually description of role.
- Then "In This Job You Will" bullet list (though not bullet but sentences). We can treat as Responsibilities list.
- Then "Experience Required:" etc. That's Requirements/Qualifications.
- Then "Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities" list.
- Then "About Jefferson Lab" paragraph.
- Then "Total Rewards at Jefferson Lab Benefits" list.
We need sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We have Pay info. No schedule info given. So we should not include Schedule section.
We have Benefits info.
We have About the role: maybe combine intro and About Jefferson Lab? The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which sections to include based on content.
We have content for About the role: could be the introductory paragraph about Jefferson Lab mission? Or we could have separate About Jefferson Lab as About the role? Probably "About the role" includes the description of what the role is about (the mission). The "What Your Job Will Be Like" is responsibilities.
We also have "Experience Required:" etc which could be Requirements and Qualifications. Might combine.
We have Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities -> Skills.
We have Benefits.
We have Pay.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay.
We must not include empty sections.
Now we need to format lists with - . For prose use
.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all details from the posting, but we can restructure into headings and lists.
We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, accommodation, foreign talent recruitment, etc. Remove those.
Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to be careful to keep all substantive info: e.g., details about HPDF, responsibilities list, experience required, education, knowledge skills abilities, benefits list.
Let's extract.
Intro paragraph: "At Jefferson Lab, you’ll champion cutting-edge science and operational excellence while shaping the future of discovery. Join us and make your mark – where excellence meets purpose, and great minds truly matter."
Pay: "The good-faith pay range for this role is $118,400 - $186,500 per year. Actual compensation may vary and may be above the posted range based on factors such as a candidate's skills, experience, education, certifications, and work location."
What Your Job Will Be Like paragraph: "Jefferson Lab, in collaboration with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory are building the High-Performance Data Facility (HPDF), a landmark DOE ASCR investment in scientific data infrastructure. Spanning from the Virginia coast to the California Bay Area, HPDF will deliver seamless, integrated data services across both institutions, purpose-built for the demands of modern data science and research. Unlike traditional facilities where data is an afterthought, HPDF is designed to be a data-first facility that will treat scientific data as a first-class asset and provides the capabilities researchers need to extract its full scientific value. This is a greenfield storage architecture role. You are the principal authority on storage architecture for the High-Performance Data Facility (HPDF), leading the design of a large-scale, multi-tiered, distributed storage system purpose-built for DOE scientific data lifecycle. You research and evaluate the full landscape of commercial vendors, cloud providers, and open-source distributed storage solutions, develop performance and cost models, and work closely with peer architects to ensure coherent, well-grounded technology selections as the project advances toward its design milestones. When the facility is complete, you lead the HPDF storage operations team, owning storage infrastructure across its distributed locations."
Then "In This Job You Will" list (though not bullet). Let's extract each sentence as a bullet:
- Design Leadership: Lead the technical design of a multi-tiered, widely distributed storage system incorporating reliability, immutability, data integrity, and high-throughput performance across distributed locations.
- Evaluate storage technologies: HPC platforms (VAST, Weka, Spectrum Scale), open-source file systems (Lustre, DAOS, Ceph), and cloud. Engage vendors, assess solutions, and develop analyses to support architecture and acquisition decisions.
- Performance and Cost Modeling: Develop and validate models to predict storage performance, capacity, and total cost of ownership at scale. Define KPPs and benchmarking strategies to govern storage system selection and validation.
- Metrics and Observability: Define initial SLOs and SLIs for storage performance and availability. Architect and implement monitoring and alerting solutions supporting design validation and future facility operations.
- Establish Storage Team Framework: Define the operational framework and staffing plans for the future storage team, which will be responsible for the lifecycle management of the entire storage infrastructure.
- Lead - Supervisory - Management Lead small team
We need to keep all that.
