Develop real-time digital twins for Small Modular Reactors using FPGA development and AI or machine learning modeling in hybrid Edmonton work.

The University of Alberta seeks a Research Associate for a project developing an SMR digital twin. This fixed-term position runs through April 30, 2027, with research focused on modeling and simulation in real-time environments. Findings will support publication in peer-reviewed journals.

Key Responsibilities:

- Conduct research on Small Modular Reactor modeling
- Develop simulations in real-time environments
- Implement FPGA-based hardware solutions
- Apply AI-enabled predictive modeling approaches
- Prepare research findings for peer-reviewed publication

Requirements:

- Demonstrated FPGA-based development experience
- Demonstrated AI or machine learning modeling experience
- Experience in nuclear reactor modeling preferred
- Experience in real-time simulation preferred
- Experience with hardware-in-the-loop emulation preferred

Apply FPGA development, AI modeling, and SMR simulation research to advance real-time digital twin development at the University of Alberta.
