Advanced Light Source in Berkeley
Postdoc Position

Position Summary:
Berkeley Lab's Advanced Light Source Division has an opening for a Scattering and Tomography Postdoctoral Scholar position. You will be engaged in the development and application of machine learning for scattering and tomography. This is a unique opportunity to work on a wide range of collaborative research. The successful candidate will be developing machine learning algorithms in collaboration with the X-ray micro-tomography and X-ray scattering group and implement the algorithm at beamlines.


What You Will Do:
*             Development of machine learning algorithms for scattering and tomography.
*             Strong interest in computing and algorithm development.
*             Work in a diverse team of scientist.
*             Interact with beamline staff.


What is Required:
*             Ph.D. in physics, material science or related field.
*             Excellent software development skills.
*             Knowledge of tensoflow or related software.
*             Multi CPU/GPU programming experience.
*             Demonstrate experience in developing algorithms for either X-ray tomography or X-ray scattering
*             Excellent oral and written communication skills.


Additional Desired Qualifications:
*             Background in either X-ray scattering or Tomography theory.
