Discipline Lead Research Networks and Storage

4 months ago

Edinburgh, United Kingdom Australian Government Department of Defence Full time


The Role
As part of the Digital Research Infrastructure directorate leadership team, you will lead a team of IT professionals and work collaboratively to provide secure research networks, storage systems, solutions, systems support, and related technology required to meet researcher needs.

You will work closely with the other Discipline Leads in both Digital Research Infrastructure and Computational & Data Intensive Sciences directorates to ensure that there is strategic alignment in our planning, and day to day service alignment to ensure that the network and storage service offerings are fit for purpose and meet DSTG’s strategic initiatives.

You will engage with, and co-operate with researchers to help inform and shape the network and storage service provision and continually improve the service offerings. You will lead all aspects of the delivery of networks and storage technology including the provision of guidance on the selection and application of fit-for-purpose technology solutions. This will include relevant aspects of the provision of secure capabilities for major projects. 

Key Duties: 

Lead and drive innovation in research networks and storage platforms to support research initiatives. Lead the day to day delivery of research networks and storage infrastructure, services and technology needed to meet Defence and National Security research goals in the most efficient and effective manner. Develop and foster a high performing team of science technology professionals. Work closely with the Discipline Leader High Performance Computing (HPC) Services and Technology to ensure relevant alignment of architecture, technology, system compatibility and service integration between HPC and networks and storage to provide a reliable and secure software foundation for Defence S&T and their partners to develop digital research together.  Work closely with both the Architecture and Service Delivery directorates. Provide innovative problem-solving approaches that enhance the networks and storage technical capabilities, security, and service offerings. Accountable for the availability, reliability, security and integrity of classified networks and storage systems. Mentor staff in the development of technical, project, and related organisational/support skills.  Manage vendor relationships
About our Team
The Digital Research Infrastructure (DRI) team, as part of the wider Scientific Computing (SC) branch, enables and accelerates Defence science and technology research and protects assets in DSTG’s digital research environments. SC does this by provisioning and supporting scientific computing infrastructure that is well-managed, sustainable and scalable; continuing to invest in innovative centralised digital research infrastructure and services, while divesting commodity distributed ICT infrastructure and services; and developing new Scientific Computing practices and technologies. 

The DRI directorate provides secure, effective and efficient digital research and eResearch infrastructure and related systems where a sovereign capability is required for Defence’s S&T capabilities.

Our Ideal Candidate
The Discipline Leader Research Networks and Storage will ideally be a highly experienced leader able to develop, deliver and sustain a complex world-class portfolio of secure infrastructure systems. 

We are looking for a communicator and collaborator who will be able to understand the needs of our varied customers and stakeholders and produce results according to their requirements. The right person for this role will show the flexibility to respond to the changing context and shifting priorities of stakeholders and have the agility to realign resourcing and infrastructure to meet that demand. They will be a leader who provides support and guidance to their team to ensure they are sensitive to Defence needs and direction.
