This is an opportunity to join the SPOTLIGHT project. This exciting project aims to discover new Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) and pulsars using the GMRT, one of the largest low-frequency radio telescopes in the world. GMRT is a precursor to the next generation SKA radio telescope due to begin observing in 2026. SPOTLIGHT uses a PetaFlop computing facility based on cutting-edge NVIDIA GPUs to enable real-time commensal searching for radio transients using 2000 beams on the sky. This is a full-time, fixed-term post for 12 months. This role will focus on enabling multibeam signal processing of the collected data by extending the AstroAccelerate software package. This involves tailoring AstroAccelerate to the SPOTLIGHT science case, both in terms of aspects of the software engineering and signal processing algorithms. The successful candidate will contribute to the design, implementation, and development of software to enable the SPOTLIGHT project. They will collaborate with colleagues at GMRT and have the opportunity to visit them in India. There are also opportunities for the post-holder to help support Masters and DPhil students, along with some ad-hoc teaching in the area of scientific computing.
