Lunds universitet grundades 1666 och har under flera år rankats omkring de 100 bästa universiteten i världen. Här finns 42 000 studenter och drygt 7 500 medarbetare i Lund, Helsingborg och Malmö. Vi förenas i vår strävan att förstå, förklara och förbättra vår värld och människors villkor.

MAX IV Laboratory has operated successfully for more than 30 years and is currently commissioning the new MAX IV synchrotron facility in Lund.

Fully developed it will receive more than 2 000 scientists annually, from Sweden and the rest of the world. They will do research in areas such as materials science, structural biology, chemistry and nanotechnology. 200 people are currently employed at the MAX IV Laboratory.

MAX IV is the largest and most ambitious Swedish investment in national research infrastructure. It will be the brightest source of X-rays worldwide when inaugurated June 2016. MAX IV Laboratory is hosted by Lund University.

Currently 13 beamlines are funded and under construction at the MAX IV laboratory.

In order to strengthen the team working with one of these - the soft X-ray VERITAS beamline for RIXS - Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering - we are now seeking to hire a research engineer with a background and interest in soft X-ray synchrotron radiation based techniques and instrumentation.

The VERITAS beamline is currently under early stages of construction. The beamline is planned to be installed and commissioned during 2016 and is expected to open for outside users in 2017 at the 3 GeV storage ring of the MAX IV facility.

Tasks

The candidate will be part of the team responsible for the build-up and operation of the soft X-ray RIXS beamline VERITAS at MAX IV Laboratory. The candidate will be responsible for coordinating and conducting practical work related to the installation and operation of the beamline, the experimental end-station and the high resolution spectrometer. Due to the nature of the equipment the candidate will also be expected to work with the safety aspects of the instrumentation. As part of his/her tasks the candidate is also expected to supervise infrastructure installations during the build-up phase. 

The candidate will also participate in the conditioning and commissioning of the beamline including the experimental end-station and spectrometer.

When the VERITAS beamline becomes operational the candidate is expected to participate in the support of users on the beamline as well as maintaining the equipment to the highest standard.

Qualifications

The successful candidate has a PhD or equivalent in Physics or a similar field of relevance for the Veritas beamline. Good knowledge of soft X-ray RIXS is a must. The candidate must have demonstrated experience with as many as possible of the following areas:

• Beamline optics and experimental equipment for soft X-ray RIXS.
• Infrastructure of relevance for the VERITAS beamline
• Planning, coordination, and implementation of equipment build-up projects
• Ultrahigh vacuum systems including sample handling systems

Good communication skills and command of the English language are mandatory for the User support role. Knowledge of relevant safety issues is a plus. Good command of the Swedish language is also a plus.

We kindly decline all sales and marketing contacts.
