The HPC problems we solve

  1. Months to hire an HPC engineer who knows Slurm

    A vetted senior HPC engineer joins your team within days, already fluent in Slurm, MPI and parallel storage, with an architect behind them.

  2. Grant-funded projects with fixed end dates

    Capacity sized to the project and billed by the hour, scaled down when the grant period ends, with no contract to unwind.

  3. Researchers waiting on one overloaded admin

    An extra engineer takes account requests, software builds and job debugging off your admin, working in your ticketing system and chat.

  4. Cluster knowledge that leaves with the contractor

    Engineers document builds, scheduler changes and runbooks as they go, and an architect keeps the context if anyone on the engagement changes.

  5. A cluster build nobody on staff has done

    An engineer who has built Slurm clusters joins for the build, does the hands-on work and leaves your admins able to run it.

  6. Building a research computing team from scratch

    We cover the cluster while you hire, help define the roles and interview candidates, then hand over runbooks when your people start.

To overcome common pitfalls, an architect brings in perspective.
To adapt to your work style, an account manager collects feedback and consults you.
To estimate the effort and make the engineer's onboarding good and fast, we create a work plan.

Frequently asked questions

What is HPC staff augmentation?

HPC Staff Augmentation is adding vetted senior HPC engineers to your own team, working in your tools and rituals, for as long as you need the capacity. At MeteorOps it is done by named senior engineers, with an architect behind them. How staff augmentation works at MeteorOps.

What does an HPC expert work on?

A MeteorOps HPC expert works on running Slurm, MPI and GPU workloads on clusters that schedule fairly, scale with demand and keep expensive nodes busy, hands-on in your own systems and tools. See what the HPC practice covers.

How much does HPC staff augmentation cost?

MeteorOps bills HPC staff augmentation as predictable monthly capacity, full weeks or part of every week, with the hours log to show where they went. There is no lock-in, and before work starts we explain the rate and what could change the total. See plans and pricing.

How quickly can an HPC expert start?

Usually within days. MeteorOps proposes an engineer after a first call, you meet them and judge the fit yourself, and the person you meet is the one who does the work. Book a free 30-minute consultation to start.

HPC Staff Augmentation or a full-time HPC engineer?

Staff augmentation puts a senior HPC engineer on your team in days instead of the months a hire takes, and the capacity can grow or shrink month to month. Hiring wins when you need the role permanently and can wait for the search. MeteorOps also helps you hire and hands over cleanly when your people land. Talk it through with us.

Is staff augmentation the right way to work with an HPC expert?

It depends on the work. MeteorOps also offers HPC consulting, HPC outsourcing, HPC on-call support, HPC solutions, HPC compliance or HPC support, and you can switch models as the work changes, keeping the same engineer.
