Become a part of our mission to maintain and strengthen the vitality of the US 
science and engineering enterprise. For over 60 years, the National Science 
Foundation<http://www.nsf.gov/about/> (NSF) has remained the premier Federal 
agency supporting basic research at the frontiers of discovery across all 
fields, as well as science and engineering education at all levels.

The Directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) is 
seeking qualified candidates for a Program Director for the High Performance 
Computing (HPC) program, which is managed in the Division of Advanced 
Cyberinfrastructure (ACI).

ACI supports cyberinfrastructure resources, tools and related services such as 
supercomputers, high-capacity mass-storage systems, system software suites and 
programming environments, scalable interactive visualizations tools, 
productivity software libraries and tools, large-scale data repositories and 
digitized scientific data management systems, networks of various reach and 
granularity and an array of software tools and services that hide the 
complexities and heterogeneity of contemporary cyberinfrastructure while 
seeking to provide ubiquitous access and enhanced usability.

ACI supports the preparation and training of current and future generations of 
researchers and educators in the use of cyberinfrastructure to further their 
research and education goals. ACI also supports the scientific and engineering 
professionals who create and maintain these IT-based resources and systems and 
who provide essential customer services to the national science and engineering 
user community.

For more information about ACI and its programs, please visit 
http://www.nsf.gov/div/index.jsp?div=ACI.
