Los Alamos National Laboratory is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate to join their Materials Science and Technology division in Los Alamos, NM. The role involves conducting research in materials modeling, particularly focusing on uncertainty quantification methods and algorithms for the mechanical performance of metals.

As a Postdoctoral Research Associate, you will collaborate with staff scientists and graduate students to develop methods and algorithms that quantify and reduce uncertainty in polycrystal constitutive models. Your responsibilities will include calibrating and validating models for metals under extreme conditions, developing active learning schemas, and proposing new experimental designs. You will have the opportunity to publish in high-impact journals and present at conferences, with a potential for a third year based on performance.
