    Just think how different history would have turned out if no one applied for those White House plumber's jobs back in the Nixon Administration? gr

    Are they going for some kind of "Good Will Hunting"-type thing here?

    I think they are hoping to get attention of ChemEs to apply since fits with their skill set.

    I bet there's still PhD chemists willing to apply for it. At least you can tell people you're a chemist working at Berkeley. You just don't go into more detail than that.
