This involves two core functions: first, providing essential digital office services to over 300 users, including internal staff and external collaborators. Second, it provides specialized scientific IT infrastructure tailored to the unique needs of all groups, both within and outside the Computing Division. This involves managing the IT infrastructure for the accelerators and beamlines, with a central HPC cluster as a key component.

This involves troubleshooting technical issues, providing user support, and ensuring all IT systems and data security and integrity. Collaboration with research groups is key to understanding and meeting their evolving IT needs.

The Section has two group heads: one for IT infrastructure and communications and another for IT systems support. Both assist the Section Head by coordinating projects, services, and maintenance tasks for a subset of the Section's client units and technology portfolio.

As the Section Head, you will report directly to the Computing Division Head. Your primary responsibility will be to ensure the group's performance aligns with the yearly objectives. You will be the uttermost responsible for developing projects and operating services on the IT Systems Infrastructure in ALBA.

In addition, you will be responsible for defining the future technical strategic plans and identifying management concepts that bind the Section within the ALBA support structure and client operations. You will also play a key role in guiding and mentoring the members of the Section and fulfilling the functions and tasks as Safety Controller in accordance with the Prevention plan (HS-PdP-16 SPP).
