has an immediate opening for a Postdoctoral Research Associate. Join our team and contribute to our innovative hadronic physics program working in spin phenomena, artificial intelligence, solid-state polarized target technology, 3D structure of the nucleon,
physics beyond the standard model, and future facilities and experiments.</span></p>

in Hadronic Physics to play a leading role in our research and the upcoming SpinQuest experiment. The successful candidate will join our effort at Fermilab on the SpinQuest experiment and help lead in the extraction of Transverse Momentum Distribution (TMD)
functions using experimental data and advanced artificial intelligence techniques. Our group plays a central role in all aspects of the SpinQuest experiment and leads the SpinQuest polarized target team. Additionally, artificial intelligence and machine learning
are central to our group's effort, including phenomenological extraction, data analysis, particle tracking and reconstruction, experiment monitoring, controls, and all aspects of instrumentation. We also have projects in all experimental Halls at Jefferson
Lab and are also involved in future projects at CERN and the EIC.</span></p>
