The European Spallation Source (ESS) is a partnership organization of 13 European member countries located in the city of Lund, Sweden. The ESS is hiring motivated and inspiring people from across the globe to design, construct and operate the world's most powerful neutron source. We seek collaborative, talented people in a range of fields who are excited about playing a part in the future of science in Europe.

We are currently recruiting for the position of Instrument Scientist for Estia. This is a critical role that exists within the Instrument Scientists Group of the Neutron Scattering Systems (NSS) Division.

Further, your responsibilities and qualifications will include:

Your role:

• Complete the construction of Estia, commission the instrument and prepare "First Science" experiments to be carried out during the initial operation phase of ESS.
• Support the user programme at ESS by performing local contacting duties and research activities.
• Provide expertise in the scientific application of neutron reflectometry and in neutron reflectometry method development.

Your responsibilities:

• Develop closely familiarity with the Estia instrument design

• Conduct your own research in line with the Estia science case and seek research funding from national and international funding bodies as principle investigator.

Required qualifications

• PhD in the physical sciences with research interests and publication record aligned with the science case of the Estia instrument.
• Experience and technical interest in instrumentation and neutron reflectometry, preferably using polarization analysis and time of flight techniques
• Ability to work in a team with people of a variety of disciplines in an international collaboration.
• Excellent oral and written English skills
• Flexibility to travel. The project requires occasional travel between ESS and PSI.

Additional desirable qualifications and experience:

• Knowledge of neutron scattering data treatment and modeling at a level sufficient to guide the development of instrument specific software.
