Job Description
Overview
Protecting U.S. residents and visitors is among our nation’s highest priorities. As adversaries gain access to sophisticated technologies and materials, the threats grow more dynamic and complex—from cyber and nuclear to chemical and biological weapons of mass effect and other forms of terrorism. The PNNL national security mission employs our researchers, tools, and technologies to play a key role in advancing the ability to identify and secure nuclear materials, detect weapons of mass effect, manage nonproliferation treaties, secure our nation's borders, and protect critical infrastructures. PNNL’s scientific discovery and capabilities—rooted in innovative theory, methods, algorithms, and tools—are enabling stronger, more resilient technologies and systems to safeguard national security. Coupled with decades of radiological and nuclear materials expertise, advanced computing and threat analysis capabilities, and a broad fundamental science base, we are identifying and countering emerging threats that have significant impact at home and around the globe.
Responsibilities
PNNL is seeking bachelors degree candidates for assignments within the National Security Internship Program (NSIP). The AI and Data Analytics Division is looking for individuals who have a passion for solving critical national challenges using advanced computational, statistical, and mathematical techniques. The intern will be given an opportunity to be presented with complex problems in national security, energy, and science; apply cutting-edge research to make our nation safer and stronger; develop complex computer code; develop and participate in cyber competitions; design new visualization; work with big data and optimize solutions in diverse domains.
Positions are available in Richland, WA and Seattle, WA, based on business need. Positions may also be performed remotely or on campus at PNNL based on business need.
Diverse Focus Areas: Your internship can be in one of five technical groups.
1. Math, Stats, and Data Science: We employ powerful tools and techniques, such as mathematical modeling and computational statistics, graph and game theory, network science, and uncertainty quantification to solve complex problems in a variety of domains.
2. Applied AI Systems: We develop hardened and robust models to distill large, fast, distributed, and messy data into knowledge to support decision processes in operational environments on sponsor systems.
3. Foundational Data Science: We conceptualize and develop fundamentally new algorithms and tools to address unresolved challenges in distilling large, fast, distributed, and messy data into knowledge to support sponsors’ decision processes.
4. Software Engineering & Architectures: We develop high-quality, scalable, cloud-first solutions for tackling large data pipelines and analytics that are delivered to operational sponsor environments. We use industry best practices for professional software development using Agile development practices, code reviews, automated testing, and CI/CD pipelines.
5. Human Centered Computing: We combine innovative interactive visualizations with advanced automated data analysis techniques to enable users to gain deeper insights from their data. Make complex data useful through skillful visual design, compelling human computer interaction, sound analytic methods, and solid engineering.
