In this role, you will have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge research in new and emerging fields.
Responsibilities:
- Conduct research on state-of-the-art Machine Learning algorithms relevant to the problem being addressed.
- Implement, train, and validate proposed algorithms for specific problem domains.
- Contribute to the integration of algorithms within larger programmatic systems that require these capabilities.
- Collaborate with others in a multidisciplinary team environment to accomplish research goals.
- Pursue both independent and collaborative research interests and interact with a broad spectrum of scientists internally and externally to the Laboratory.
- Publish research results in peer-reviewed scientific journals and present results at conferences, seminars, and meetings.
- Travel as required to coordinate research with collaborators and visit field sites.
Requirements - PhD in Computer Science, Computational Engineering, Applied Statistics, Applied Mathematics, or another technical discipline providing an underlying skillset in data analysis and Machine Learning techniques.
- Fundamental knowledge of and/or experience developing and applying algorithms in one or more of the following Machine Learning areas/tasks: deep learning, representation learning, zero- or few-shot learning, active learning, reinforcement learning, natural language processing, ensemble methods, statistical modeling and inference (e.g., probabilistic graphical models, Gaussian processes, or nonparametric Bayesian methods).
- Experience in the broad application of one or more higher-level programming languages such as Python, Java, Scala, or C/C++.
- Experience with one or more deep learning libraries such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, Keras, or Caffe.
- Proven ability to undertake original research and communicate findings in peer-reviewed publications.
- Experience working with a multidisciplinary team of scientists, engineers, and project managers to develop and apply these capabilities to inform engineering decisions.
- Proficient verbal and written communication skills to collaborate effectively in a team environment and present and explain technical information.
