Presenter

Bjoern Enders is a Data Science Workflows Architect in the Data Science Engagement Group at the National Energy Research Science Computing Center (NERSC), where he leads the user program of the NERSC Superfacility API and of the testbed "Perlmutter-on-Demand," a component of the Department of Energy (DOE) Integrated Research Initiative (IRI). He is also point of contact for DOE light sources and the National Center for Electron Microscopy as well as various projects in the NERSC Science Acceleration Program (NESAP). His main areas of interest reside where HPC is used outside the classical shell-and-batch compute paradigm, be it urgent and interactive computing or be it API-driven cross-facility workflows (machine-to-machine), and what is needed for these groups of users to succeed. Beyond HPC, he has experience in REST APIs, interactive computing, data streaming, CI/CD pipelines, and microservices.
