My main role as CSE Architect in the ARCHER2 service is to try to make the service as useful as possible for researchers. I help the team prioritise work to improve the service and try to anticipate future requirements for researchers on ARCHER2. I strongly believe that we can achieve more in research by working together openly in a collegial way and so think that having strong links between the ARCHER2 service and the wider community are vital; and where the critical mass of the ARCHER2 service can have a large impact. To help achieve this I try to maintain strong links with various organisations, such as the Society of Research Software Engineering, the UK HPC-SIG, DiRAC, The Carpentries and various user communities. In my spare time, I can be generally be found out in the countryside somewhere: either under it (caving), over it (bikepacking) or though it (wild swimming).
