The Scientific Computing Division seeks outstanding applicants for a post-doctoral Research Associate position working on neutrino experiments that use liquid argon time projection chambers (LAr TPC). 

Fermilab has a strong and diverse research program in neutrino physics and an extensive array of LAr TPC experiments. Fermilab is the host lab for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) and home of the Short Baseline Neutrino program. As the successful candidate, you will conduct physics research and publish analysis of neutrino detector data on a topic of your choice. Every effort will be made to help and guide a Fermilab Research Associate to design their own research program and maintain support so that they have the chance to produce physics results. 

In parallel to physics analysis, you will bring your physics expertise and learn from a team of world-leading HEP computing experts and extreme-scale computing experts from Fermilab and collaborating institutions to gain expertise in modern software development. You will help design the software, algorithms, and workflows that will enable LAr TPC scientists and yourself to perform efficient and world-class measurements utilizing a variety of computing platforms and architectures. 

The position is for a period of up to three (3) years, with the potential for extension considered on a yearly basis thereafter, and subject to continued funding.
