SUMMARY:Developing Personas and Programs to Enable Research Software Engin
 eers to Specialize in High Performance Computing
DESCRIPTION:Neil Chue Hong and Weronika Filinger (EPCC, The University of 
 Edinburgh)\n\nMany research software engineers (RSEs) come to high perform
 ance computing (HPC) after previously pursuing a related degree, and recei
 ving on-the-job experience as part of a PhD or junior staff position. If w
 e are to increase the diversity of RSEs working in HPC, we need to examine
  different routes for people, particularly those from non-traditional HPC 
 backgrounds, to obtain the formal education and training needed for them t
 o have a successful career. The UNIVERSE-HPC project has been developing p
 ersonas, career pathways and a proposed master's-level programme for peopl
 e looking to become RSEs specializing in HPC or large-scale data science. 
 In this lightning talk, we introduce the pillars of this programme, and di
 scuss some of the challenges in developing a balanced programme given the 
 relatively short duration of UK master's courses.\n\nTag: Distributed Comp
 uting, Education, Emerging Technologies\n\nRegistration Category: Workshop

 p (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign); Julie Mullen (Massachusetts I
 nstitute of Technology (MIT), Lincoln Laboratory); and Nitin Sukhija (Slip
