Job Description
This role involves designing and leading an AI-driven scientific computing platform for next-generation battery materials, integrating advanced AI models with molecular simulations and supporting battery R&D efforts to accelerate energy storage innovations.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and implement a scientific computing platform for battery materials integrating AI models, experimental data, and cloud infrastructure
- Develop high-performance simulation services for molecular dynamics, phase-field, and related models
- Create and evolve APIs and platform interfaces for simulation, ML, and data services
- Develop and deploy AI ML models for materials informatics, including force fields and surrogate models
- Build and manage automated MD simulation workflows with job scheduling, monitoring, and data management
- Translate research prototypes into reliable, production-grade simulation services
- Collaborate with scientists to develop simulation capabilities for battery dendrite growth, degradation, and electrolyte performance
- Ensure integration of simulation and AI outputs with experimental workflows and data dashboards
Requirements
- PhD in Materials Science, Computational Physics, Computational Chemistry, or a closely related field.
- At least 1 year of post-graduate experience in computational materials science, including molecular dynamics and/or phase-field simulation.
- Proven track record building production-grade scientific software in C and/or similar systems languages, ideally in an HPC context.
- Hands-on experience with AI and machine learning for materials informatics, such as ML force fields, surrogate models, or automated ML workflows.
- Demonstrated experience designing and implementing APIs, services, and platforms used by other engineers or scientists.
- Strong background in algorithm development related to materials behavior, e.g., dendrite growth, transport, microstructure evolution.
- Experience collaborating closely with experimentalists and domain scientists and translating their needs into robust engineering solutions.
