Lund University was founded in 1666 and is repeatedly ranked among the world's top universities. The University has around 47 000 students and more than 8 800 staff based in Lund, Helsingborg and Malmö. We are united in our efforts to understand, explain and improve our world and the human condition.

Lund University welcomes applicants with diverse backgrounds and experiences. We regard gender equality and diversity as a strength and an asset.

Your team
You will be working in the Accelerator Development group consisting of a wide variety of experts within the accelerator field, including accelerator physicists, RF experts and laser experts.

The Accelerator Development team is a part of MAX IV Accelerator Division, which is responsible for developing and operating all accelerator-based light sources at MAX IV

Would you like to work at one of the brightest light sources in the world?

MAX IV is looking for a Magnet Engineer who will be the responsible system owner of all accelerator magnets, as well as project and work package leader of several exciting research and development initiatives.

The accelerators at the MAX IV facility are the core components for production of synchrotron radiation. There are two storage rings and one linear accelerator. The largest of these accelerators is the 3 GeV electron storage ring, which is the first in the world to employ a multi-bend-achromat magnet lattice to deliver ultrahigh-brightness synchrotron radiation. It is the first of the new generation of storage rings with extremely low emittance, of which only three are currently in operation, while several synchrotron radiation facilities worldwide are upgrading in this direction. We intend to stay at the forefront and are therefore already studying improved accelerator designs and components.

In particular, since January 2024 MAX IV is engaged in the design of a major upgrade to its 3 GeV ring, called MAX 4U. The upgrade aims at an outstanding improvement in light source performance to maintain MAXIV s competitive edge beyond the end of this decade and includes the design/prototyping and construction of several innovative magnet systems.

MAX IV is also part of a consortium of accelerator labs and companies that execute a 3-year long EU funded project (RF2.0). Within the scope of this project, MAX IV is responsible for designing and prototyping permanent-magnet-based, energy-efficient alternatives to the accelerator magnets currently in operation at MAXIV. This project carries very significant synergies with the MAX 4U project.

Your main work tasks will be

- Magnet work package leader for the MAX 4U Project
- Subsystem ownership of all MAX IV accelerator magnet systems (DC and pulsed). This includes responsibility for reliability, uptime, and maintenance
- Design prototyping and testing of a permanent magnet based dipole magnet within the RF2.0 project
- Provide support to operations of the MAX IV accelerator systems

To be successful in this role you need to have the following qualifications

- University degree in Engineering or Science or equivalent.
- Experience with design, construction and operation of accelerator magnet systems.
- Fluent in written and spoken English

Below are seen as merits

- Previous experience in system ownership
- Previous experience with pulsed magnets
- Project managements skills
- Experience with accelerator operation

As a person you are a team worker, self-driven and work well under pressure.

What we offer
When you join our MAX IV team, you step into a world of front edge science. We make the invisible visible by supporting scientist from all over the world, generating scientific results for the benefit of society. We offer you a multicultural work environment with great opportunities for personal development with respect for a healthy work-life balance.

Would you like to work in a challenging and supporting environment? Then join us and take the opportunity to make a real difference!
