- PhD in computer science, computational biology, computational physics, computational chemistry or equivalent combination of education and related experience.
- Knowledge and experience in developing novel machine-learning based methods for enhancing the sampling of rare events, using free energy methods to model protein-protein binding affinities and developing statistical analysis of large-scale molecular dynamics datasets.
- Experience at the postdoctoral or higher level in the fields of molecular dynamics simulations, free energy calculations, transition path theory, enhanced sampling methods, machine learning, and statistical mechanics.
- Demonstrate advanced computer skills including programming experience with Python or C++ in a UNIX environment as well as experience using large high-performance computing clusters, including the use of job schedulers such as SLURM, PBS or Flux.
- Ability to work independently on defined research projects, as well as a member of a large team.
- Ability to develop independent research projects as demonstrated through publication of peer-reviewed manuscripts in the field of molecular modeling and simulations.
- Ability to travel, as necessary, to interact with sponsors, customers and collaborators.
- Proficient written, verbal communication and interpersonal skills necessary to deliver presentations, prepare written reports and to interact with a diverse set of scientists, engineers, and other technical and administrative staff.
Qualifications We Desire:
- Experience in collaborating with experimental biologists as well as understanding and using experimental data in combination with computational research.
- Experience in developing and training machine-learning based models in high-performance computing systems.
- Experience computing binding affinity, stability and/or other metrics using scoring functions like Rosetta.
- Experience with parallel programming tools used to develop high performance code on GPU's and/or CPU's, such as OpenMP, MPI, CUDA or OpenCL.
- Experience using collaborative programming workflows and tools such as git, Gitlab, or subversion.
