Remote hybrid:

Persons in these roles are expected to spend 2-3 days per week in our Seattle offices and may occasionally work remotely from their home in the Greater Seattle area. On-site requirements vary based on position and team. If you have questions about Hybrid work arrangements for this role, please ask your recruiter. Compensation Range:

$167,030 - $260,570 First consideration of applicants will be reviewed October 15, 2024. Position will remain open until filled. Who You Are: You are creative, curious, and collaborative. You're a deep thinker and a careful coder with Ph.D.-level expertise in machine learning and deep technical interest in climate modeling. You yearn to rise to the challenge of using ML to make better climate models as part of a world-leading Ai2 research team that works closely with top U.S. climate modeling institutions. You are a thought leader and a team player who delivers cutting-edge research and well-crafted code that breaks barriers. Who We Are: Ai2’s Climate Modeling team is an international pioneer in using machine learning (ML) methodologies to improve current climate models. We seek a Research Scientist to use novel ML approaches to enable coarse-grid climate models to better emulate the weather and climate of ultra-fine grid reference simulations. You will join a tight-knit team of scientists and software engineers collaborating with external climate modeling groups. Ai2 is a non-profit research institute in beautiful, vibrant Seattle focused on developing AI for the public good. In our mission-driven environment you’ll have the opportunity to: Collaboratively design and deploy the next generation of our ML system that makes much more computationally efficient models of the global atmosphere, land and ocean that accurately simulate past and future climates. Implement and improve novel generative AI methods for roll-out and downscaling, in a rapidly evolving field of study. Help create an open-source product that the climate modeling community and climate-sensitive decision-makers can really use. Disseminate new methods and findings in conferences and scientific journals. Work with and learn from team members in the Climate Modeling group and across Ai2, as well as our external collaborators. What You’ll Need: Substantial experience building and deploying a relevant ML application in a practical or academic research setting and be fluent in Python and collaborative coding practices. A Ph.D. in computer or computational science, atmospheric science or a related geophysical science, or applied mathematics/statistics, with at least one first-authored publication making extensive use of ML. Demonstrated excellent communications skills. It's A Bonus If You: Have formal training and/or practical experience with physically-based atmospheric, oceanic, or related model development. Have previously held a professional or post-doctoral position using your machine learning skills. Formal graduate-level ML coursework. Physical Demands and Work Environment: Must be able to remain in a stationary position for long periods of time. The ability to communicate information and ideas so others will understand. Must be able to exchange accurate information in these situations. The ability to observe details at close range.
