Overview
Job Description
The Argonne Leadership Computing Facility's (ALCF) mission is to accelerate major scientific discoveries and engineering breakthroughs for humanity by designing and providing world-leading computing facilities in partnership with the computational science community. We help researchers solve some of the world's largest and most complex problems with our unique combination of supercomputing resources and computational science expertise.
The ALCF has an opening for a Computer Scientist working to enable AI for science, specifically targeting agentic workflows involving diverse science domains, diverse data, and high-performance computing. This position entails building agentic systems that plan and execute scientific workflows on ALCF systems, and developing services/APIs that allow AI models to interact with simulations, data, and job schedulers. These solutions will be required to be highly usable and stable for users, but also be highly adaptable to keep pace with the rapidly-evolving state of AI and science. We welcome candidates with strengths in AI/ML, HPC systems, or scientific workflows, with opportunities to grow across areas.
The successful candidate will join the Data Services and Workflows group, which focuses on scientific workflows that combine large-scale data, simulations, analysis, and AI. The group--and this position-- involves work in a highly collaborative environment involving science application teams, academia and industry, as well as other national labs and agencies, to solve some of the world's largest and most complex problems in science and engineering. The candidate will engage with science application teams and contribute to broader scientific initiatives.
Position Requirements
Required skills and qualifications:
- RD2: Bachelor's and 5+ years of experience or a Masters and 3+ years of experience or a PhD and 0+ years of experience
- Educational background in computer science, computational science, a physical science, engineering, or related field
