Purpose of the post

At HDR UK, we employ talented individuals who bring their own unique skills and experience to support our vision and benefit the whole team. The DARE UK Integration work programme in Phase 2 addresses the new systems and processes required to connect existing and new TREs and other service components of the landscape. Ultimately it will provide the underpinning platform enabling secure interoperability between the core components of the DARE UK Transformational Programme, so that researchers can safely and seamlessly use the different capabilities across multiple TREs. By extension it will define the common, inter-service connectivity layer for all future capabilities that may arise from the DARE UK programme, or elsewhere.

We are looking for an experienced Technical Lead to take a hands-on role in coordinating the deployment of the “Test Environment for Trusted Research Environments” (TETREs) test network between partner sites and help to lead a programme of technology experimentation across the network (the “TETREs Lead”).

TETREs will build upon DARE UK work and broader practical experience from the TRE community to address two key challenges:

· How best can we build repeatable and reconfigurable experimental testbed environments alongside existing TREs?

· What existing software or standards are best suited to provide the interconnectivity between TREs and related services? Where are the points of convergence?

The TETREs Lead will work closely with, and take direction from, the DARE UK National Digital Infrastructure Technical Lead (“DARE UK Lead”).
