The MIT Office of Research Computing and Data (ORCD) has multiple undergraduate and graduate student positions to work in our research computing support team. The Office of Research Computing and Data is a new campus initiative that aims to be the “go to” future of research computing for all campus researchers at all levels. The support team provides comprehensive help and training for all researchers on campus who want to leverage computing beyond their laptop and desktop. These positions will work alongside ORCD professional staff. The roles will be involved in helping researchers working with the most advanced computing tools on MITs largest and most powerful computing systems for data analysis, modeling, AI/ML and more.
