Machine Learning - Postdoctoral Researcher

We're looking for a Machine Learning Postdoctoral Researcher to contribute to fundamental R&D in machine learning and statistical methods in support of different projects related to AI Safety & Security, Foundation Models in areas such as material science or bio assurance, and uncertainty quantification for deep learning models. These will be interdisciplinary projects that aim to combine state-of-the-art machine learning models with various science objectives. Examples are multi-modal sequence-to-sequence models for molecules and chemical reactions or combine large language models with other modalities. Furthermore, you will develop methods to improve safety and trustworthiness of these models. This position will be in the Machine Intelligence Group in the Center for Applied Scientific Computing (CASC) Division within the LLNL Computing Directorate.

You will

• Research, design, implement, and apply advanced machine learning methods for multiple applications in a collaborative scientific environment.
• Actively participate with project scientists and engineers in defining, planning, and formulating experimental, modeling, and simulation efforts for complex problems stemming from national security applications.
• Propose and implement advanced analysis methodologies, collect and analyze data, and document results in technical reports and peer-reviewed publications.
• Contribute to grant proposals and collaborate with others in a multidisciplinary team environment, including academic and industrial partners, to accomplish research goals.
• Pursue independent (but complementary) research interests and interact with a broad spectrum of scientists internal and external to the Laboratory.
• Perform other duties as assigned.
