[DMANET] Hiring a postdoc for the NSF AI Institute for Research on Trustworthy AI in Weather, Climate, and Coastal Oceanography

The newly formed NSF AI Institute for Research on Trustworthy AI in Weather, Climate, and Coastal Oceanography (AI2ES) is an NSF funded AI Institute that brings together universities, government, and private industry to develop trustworthy AI for environmental science. AI2ES will uniquely benefit humanity by developing novel, physically based AI techniques that are demonstrated to be trustworthy, and will directly improve prediction, understanding, and communication of high-impact environmental hazards.

We are hiring a postdoc with expertise in machine learning and the physical sciences (preferably atmospheric science, climate, or ocean science). This postdoc will be located at the University of Oklahoma in Norman OK and will work with Dr Amy McGovern, the PI of the institute. The postdoc will also work with other institute personnel at OU in the School of Computer Science and the School of Meteorology as well as with personnel across AI2ES.

The postdoc will be a key part of a team that is developing trustworthy AI for atmospheric science applications. The postdoc will work with interdisciplinary collaborators across the institute. At OU, this will include working with the School of Computer Science and the School of Meteorology as well as colleagues at NOAA. This is an exciting position that will allow the postdoc to work at the forefront of the development of trustworthy AI for a variety of environmental science applications.

This position is part of a large multi-institutional institute and there will be postdocs located throughout the partner institutions. The University of Oklahoma is the lead and the partners include Colorado State University, the University at Albany, the University of Washington, North Carolina State University, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, Del Mar College (Corpus Christi), the National Center for Atmospheric Research, Google, IBM, NVIDIA, Disaster Tech, and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
