DescriptionComputational Scientist Project Scientist - 97210
Division: DD-Data Science

Lawrence Berkeley National Lab’s (LBNL, https://www.lbl.gov/) Data Science Division has an opening for a Computational Scientist Project Scientist to join the team.

In this exciting role, you will work on the development of scientific machine learning models, with an emphasis on the intersection of deep learning, dynamical systems, and robustness, in order to address questions such as how to build robust dynamical systems that are computational efficient and expressive for scientific and engineering machine learning problems. Among other things, this will involve leveraging tools from randomized numerical linear algebra to build algorithms for data-intensive applications such as fluid flows and climate science.

What You Will Do:
• Lead the design, development, and optimizations of machine learning algorithms for dynamical systems problems.
• Develop self-supervised and transfer learning methods for super-resolution tasks and data problems.
• Integrate these methods into ODE/PDE-based SciML pipelines.
• Development of robust and dynamical systems inspired neural network architectures, efficient training strategies for extracting knowledge from limited data, and data-driven modeling of scientific data.
• Develop and evaluate randomized implementations so they work efficiently with dense matrices, sparse matrices, and even abstract linear operators.
• Work closely with NERSC scientists and Machine Learning and Analytics scientists to deploy and evaluate the implementations of novel algorithms, including evaluation on fluid, climate, astronomy, etc., data.
• Provide training to colleagues and write excellent documentation, to elevate the work from a proof of concept to maintainable, long-lasting infrastructure.

Additional Responsibilities as needed:
• Experience in numerical analysis, statistics, machine learning, and numerical optimization.
• Experience in one or more application areas such as fluid flow, climate science, etc.
• Experience in machine learning development, including training and evaluation of neural network models.
• Experience creating, implementing, and applying data analysis methods and procedures.
