DESCRIPTION

The CW3E machine learning team is recruiting a scientist to work on the development of artificial intelligence (AI) weather prediction models. The successful candidate will apply their background and expertise in computational science to develop, support, and execute projects of broad scope and complexity that address CW3E's objectives, with a focus on modeling, analyzing, and predicting extreme weather and water events.

The position will contribute directly to ongoing developments at CW3E in the domain of AI weather prediction, including novel architecture design and ensemble strategies. May also develop innovative deep learning-based post-processing methods for quantitative precipitation forecasting (QPF) as well as forecasting other relevant variables, e.g., temperature, integrated water vapor transport (IVT) for the benefit of water management.

Communicates research findings through peer-reviewed journal publications, conference presentations, technical reports, and other publications, as needed. May give technical presentations to associated research and technology groups and management, and represent the organization at national and international meetings, conferences, and committees. Supports proposal development and contributes to ongoing efforts on the strategic growth of computing platforms and improvement of data management procedures.

QUALIFICATIONS

Bachelor's degree in meteorology, atmospheric sciences, climate science or related field. Master's degree or PhD preferred.
Experience in implementing machine learning methods for weather/climate research, analysis of dynamical model (e.g., WRF) outputs, and publishing research results.
Experience in handling artificial intelligence weather models and numerical weather prediction model simulations, and developing methods for deterministic and probabilistic predictions of hydrometeorological variables.
Knowledge of operational forecasting models and products from NOAA and ECMWF. Knowledge of observational and reanalysis data sets relevant to US West coast meteorology and climate.
Thorough skills associated with statistical analysis and systems programming. Strong experience in scientific programming, working in a Unix environment, and with scripting languages such as Python, R, or Matlab is highly desirable.
Experience using common machine learning software (Tensorflow, Keras, PyTorch, Scikit-Learn, etc.) on cloud computing environments (AWS, Azure, etc.).
Skills to communicate complex information in a clear and concise manner both verbally and in writing. Skills in scientific writing for peer-reviewed journal publications, scientific graphical representation, and experience presenting at scientific conferences (oral and poster presentations).
Thorough skills in analysis and consultation.
Thorough knowledge of research function. In-depth experience as an independent researcher.
Skills in project management. Strong time management skills. Demonstrated ability to prioritize tasks and meet deadlines.
Research skills at a level to evaluate alternate solutions and develop recommendations. This includes proposing new analyses, new conceptual ideas, or new workflow recommendations.
Excellent interpersonal skills including thoughtfulness, diplomacy and flexibility with the ability to work independently or within a team framework in conjunction with principles of community with staff, faculty, researchers, and students.
