Summary
Jason Buechler is an experienced HPC systems administrator and research engineer with eight years managing and scaling Linux and Windows high-performance computing environments at Northern Arizona University. He combines deep hands-on skills—cluster maintenance for 100+ nodes, Slurm, Ansible, Nagios, and parallel storage—with a researcher’s mindset, having developed simulations and published wind and hydropower integration studies. Jason designs and leads HPC workshops, writes automation and monitoring tooling in Bash and Python, and serves as a trusted consultant to scientists translating research workflows into robust compute solutions. Based in Flagstaff, he pairs a 4.0 M.S. in Mechanical Engineering with practical lab and field experience, and is known for turning curiosity-driven investigation into tangible engineering improvements (for example, applying flow and convection intuition from his research to everyday systems).
