Sparse Linear Algebra and Machine Learning Postdoc FellowAM-Applied Mathematics and Computational Research
The Scalable Solvers Group in the Applied Mathematics and Computational Research Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow to develop parallel sparse linear solvers and preconditioners, integrate them into DOE science codes, and develop scalable scientific machine learning (SciML) and uncertainty quantification (UQ) methods for large-scale modeling and simulations.
What You Will Do: Develop next-generation sparse factorization based algebraic solvers and preconditioners for multi-node GPU platforms.Develop novel algorithms in the Bayesian statistical Gaussian Process framework, leading to robust and scalable UQ methods.Optimize the newly developed codes on emerging supercomputers built from multi- and manycore processors with GPU accelerators.Participate in a multidisciplinary team involving mathematicians, computer scientists, and domain scientists for developing and deploying advanced solver and SciML techniques in the solution of scientific and engineering problems.Document work and results in the form of journal papers and conference proceedings.Present work and results at scientific meetings.What is Required: Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Applied Math, Statistics, or Computational Science.Knowledge of numerical linear algebra, sparse matrices, and randomized algorithms.Knowledge of statistical and machine learning algorithms.Coding experience in parallel sparse matrix computations.Experience of parallel programming in high-level languages, such as C/C++, MPI, and OpenMP.Proven consensus builder in a highly collaborative environment.Excellent written and oral communication skills.Desired Qualifications: Experience in parallel programming for GPUs.Notes: This is a full-time, 2 year, postdoctoral appointment with the possibility of renewal based upon satisfactory job performance, continuing availability of funds and ongoing operational needs. You must have less than 3 years of paid postdoctoral experience. Salary for Postdoctoral positions depends on years of experience post-degree.This position is represented by a union for collective bargaining purposes.The monthly salary range for this position is $8,321-$9,646 and is expected to start at $8,321 or above.This position may be subject to a background check.This position is eligible for a hybrid work schedule - a combination of weekly teleworking and performing work on site at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, 1 Cyclotron Road, Berkeley, CA.Want to learn more about working at Berkeley Lab?
