We are seeking a research associate to work in the Materials Structure and Data Group of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (Gaithersburg, MD, USA) on computational problems in crystallography. Example topics include the development of methods for determination of atomic arrangements in disordered materials and application of machine learning techniques to structure determination. The desired skills include knowledge of computational physics (e.g. numerical linear algebra, optimization techniques, Monte Carlo methods, interpolations and approximation techniques) and computer programming (e.g. R, Python, C, C++, FORTRAN). Knowledge of solid-state physics and familiarity with X-ray/neutron scattering methods would be a plus. The tentative starting time is October 1st, 2018. For further information contact Igor Levin, igor.le...@nist.gov<mailto:igor.le...@nist.gov>.
