The primary task is to develop and integrate the innovative sample environment for low and high temperatures as well as magnetic and other fields at ESS, including method development and implementing existing technologies for a user facility. Besides acquiring in-house technical capability, collaboration with the expert teams at other facilities is essential. You will be required to define and implement the long-term strategy for the ESS sample environment in respect of temperatures and fields, but will also be involved in the sample environment development for other (extreme) conditions. You will be part of the ESS Science Directorate but also gain professional experience at other neutron facilities and research teams.
Independent research and method development is an integral part of the scientific engineer’s duties. The selected candidate will be invited to join existing research and development projects on research under extreme conditions. A candidate with significant previous experience will also be given the opportunity to develop their own R&D network and research project, preferably at operating neutron research centers.

A PhD and a recognized international profile in a research area relevant to neutron research under extreme conditions is an advantage. The evaluation will be based on scientific and technical qualifications.

You are genuinely interested in teamwork and recognize the value of consulting others in order to succeed. Sharing your expertise as well as continuously developing yourself professionally will be a key success factor. A development project such as this requires the ability to adapt and cope with changing circumstances and as working in an international environment will challenge your ability to handle cultural diversity, it is important that you have successfully managed this in previous employments.
