    Developing Cyberinfrastructure Professionals as Research Partners: Lessons from the First Cohort of CI‑PIVOT

    by Winona Snapp-Childs, Elizabett A. Hillery, Julie A. Wernert, Scott Michael, David Y. Hancock, Kosali Simon, Preston M Smith, Matthew Huber, Abhinav Thota, Douglas Schultz, et al.

    The CI-PIVOT project, a collaboration between Indiana University, Purdue, and Mississippi State, addresses the gap between complex HPC/AI resources and domain researchers by transforming science experts into embedded Cyberinfrastructure Professionals (CIPs). Through an 18-month cohort model, this project establishes a scalable framework for professionalizing the CIP role, providing insights into training that can be generalized across the broader research ecosystem.

    Paths towards a Cyber Infrastructure Professional (CIP): Insights from the ongoing NSF CI-PIVOT initiative

    by Bithi De, Ibrahem Alshybani, Adonte Knight, Sumanta Chatterjee, Cong Gian

    Cyberinfrastructure Professionals (CIPs) play a critical role in enabling scalable, data-intensive, and collaborative science by bridging domain research and advanced computational systems. However, pathways into CIP roles remain poorly defined, particularly for domain scientists transitioning into research computing careers. This study presents a conceptual framework and empirical insights from the NSF-funded CI-PIVOT initiative under the Strengthening the Cyberinfrastructure Professionals Ecosystem (SCIPE) program. We articulate a staged pathway for CIP development, describe the structure and outcomes of an 18-month cohort-based training model, and synthesize key design principles for building sustainable CI workforce pipelines. These findings contribute toward formalizing CIP career trajectories and informing institutional strategies for workforce development in cyberinfrastructure-enabled science.
