Software Engineer - AI Inference for Science

Argonne National Laboratory’s Argonne Leadership Computing Facility accelerates scientific discoveries and engineering breakthroughs through world-leading computing facilities and computational science expertise. The Software Engineer will develop and deploy scalable AI inference solutions integrated with scientific workflows, leveraging high-performance computing systems and AI accelerators. The role also involves collaborating with science application teams and contributing to broader scientific initiatives.

Responsibilities:

• Explore and engineer solutions for AI inference integrated within scientific workflows, via programmatic access using standard programming interfaces (e.g. OpenAI API), and through submission of large batches of prompts for parallel processing; both scenarios require efficient execution on underlying resources, including ALCF’s HPC systems and AI testbed machines
• As the space of AI models evolves, we will adapt and deploy new models and functionality
• The candidate will engage with science application teams and contribute to broader scientific initiatives
• Work with and contribute to domain-specific software and models
