346 | 347 | RSE units that offer development services at all scales have proven to be a success story at many research institutions and have rapidly grown in size due to the influx of third party funding. |
347 | 348 | Notable examples \autocite{Katz2019} are \eg{} Manchester~\autocite{Sinclair2022}, Notre-Dame \autocite{NotreDame2025}, Stanford~\autocite{Stanford2025}, Princeton~\autocite{Princeton2025, Cosden2022a}. |

350 | 351 | Founded in January 2017, the Research Computing department of Princeton University has experienced a tremendous growth from the initial two FTEs to a total of 18 FTEs in the span of five years~\autocite{Cosden2022a}. |
351 | 352 | This growth is based on a continuous influx of new funded projects once successful projects showcase the additional value of RSE services to researchers. |

354 | 356 | The University of Manchester Software and Data Science group has successfully established specialised development services within their institution: |
355 | 357 | The “Mobile Development Service” \autocite{manchester_mobile} team consists of RSEs that focus solely on developing and deploying mobile apps. |
356 | 358 | Without a central RSE unit to anchor such specialised expertise, it would be difficult to establish such a service. |
357 | 359 | Also, having this expertise centralised allows for synergies in the deployment procedure for mobile apps: |
358 | 360 | The RSE unit can create institutional accounts with the app stores and manage the time consuming deployment process including hard-to-setup procedures like code signing. |
359 | 361 | Besides the technical benefits of this central deployment procedure, the institution will also benefit from the increased visibility and potentially be able to build a brand with its technological output. |

362 | 365 | The Scientific IT Services of ETH Zurich (SIS) started in 2013 with a handful of members and has (as of March 2024) around 50 members. |
363 | 366 | In addition to HPC services, the group also offers RSE services in various areas. |
364 | 367 | These include the development of software applications for RDM, support in the development and improvement of scientific software or the long-term maintenance of software developed in research groups. |
365 | 368 | In addition, SIS offers services in the areas of data science, machine learning, bioinformatics, trusted compute environments, and training and consulting. |
