The Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) is seeking a Staff Scientist – Agents for Science to help pioneer AI systems that can reason, plan, act, and collaborate in support of scientific discovery. AI for science is entering a new phase. Beyond models that analyze data or make predictions, there is growing opportunity to develop agentic AI systems that can interact with scientific data, simulations, instruments, workflows, and knowledge sources in more adaptive and autonomous ways. At ALCF, we are exploring how such systems can help scientists formulate hypotheses, design experiments, navigate complex data, coordinate computational workflows, and accelerate discovery across disciplines.

This role is an opportunity to work at the frontier of agentic AI, foundation models, scientific workflows, and high-performance computing, and contribute to the Department of Energy’s Genesis mission. We are looking for a creative and collaborative staff scientist/engineer who wants to...
