Marine Data Scientist Summer Internship

Special Instructions to Applicants

Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis without the need for visa sponsorship. The University will not sponsor applicants for work visas (e.g., H-1B).

Job Summary

The intern will experiment with using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to assist COE in selecting appropriate AI/ML models from publicly available databases and hosting them on CUBEnet-a regional ocean observing network. The intern will experiment with different AI/ML models using a variety of datasets such as oceanographic, atmospheric, acoustic, and optical data collected by data buoys, satellites, and uncrewed marine systems.

Primary Duties and Responsibilities

• Host the AI/ML models on COE server and run models to output the model results on a custom-built web interface
• Expected to explore the application of generative AI for purposes of ocean science data analysis with a focus on tracking accuracy and utility of AI tools and prompts
• Learn about the end-to-end AI/ML model implementation pipelines
• Expected to gain skills in applying AI/ML application to the ocean science data and gain practical experience to implement AI/ML in real world
• Expected to work independently to some extent, but the mentor will be available for guidance whenever it is needed
• Performs other duties as assigned.
