Summary
Luis Manrique is a System Administrator specializing in HPC and Linux with eight years of hands-on experience managing clusters, servers, and scientific workloads at the University of São Paulo. He built and maintained everything from experimental 20-node clusters to a 96-node SGI installation, supporting researchers by compiling legacy scientific code (C/C++/Fortran/CUDA), tuning libraries, and running production services like HA clusters and virtualization. A former student competitor in international supercomputing contests and an invited speaker on HPC hardware, he blends practical infrastructure skills with a researcher’s understanding of scientific computing needs. Luis has applied his HPC expertise to data science and ML workflows—provisioning GPU-enabled environments and implementing text classification pipelines—and is currently deepening his knowledge with a master’s in computer science and Coursera machine learning studies. Notably, he pairs low-level systems troubleshooting (he started by disassembling PCs as a kid) with modern workflow automation and user-focused documentation for scientists.
