Original job description

What You Will Do

The Computational Physics and Methods group (CAI-2) is seeking an outstanding candidate for a postdoctoral position focused on plasma physics simulations for the Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) program. Los Alamos National Laboratory is a leader in the development of volume burn ICF, such as the double shell concept, that seeks to study the interactions of thermonuclear burn, radiation coupling, and high-atomic-number mix. Development of these platforms requires the close collaboration between experiment, target fabrication, theoretical and numerical efforts to study volumetric thermonuclear burn at the National Ignition Facility. The successful postdoctoral candidate is expected to work in the LANL Double Shell team environment. Together with their future mentor, they will contribute to implosion modeling, designing and optimizing experimental platforms, and improving numerical approaches. Results will be published in the scientific literature and presented at technical conferences.

What You Need

Minimum Job Requirements:

Experience with numerical methods and modeling HEDP or related systems
Proficiency in Fortran, C/C++, or Python
Demonstrated research ability in computational plasma physics, as evidenced by publications, reports, presentations, awards, etc.
Strong oral and written communication skills
Ability to obtain a DOE Q Clearance, which typically requires US Citizenship

Education/Experience :

A Ph.D. in computational plasma physics, applied mathematics, computational science or a closely related field, completed within the past five years or soon to be completed.

Desired Qualifications:

Experience with massively parallel numerical simulations and deploying numerical algorithms on high-performance computing architectures
Ability to work independently as well as to work effectively as part of a team in a multidisciplinary environment and interact with people of a variety of expertise

Work Location: The work location for this position is onsite and located in Los Alamos, NM. All work locations are at the discretion of management.
