The beamline
The Balder beamline is dedicated to X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) experiments in the medium and hard X-ray energy range, 2.
4 - 40 keV. The high brilliance from the 3 GeV storage ring, in combination with bespoke X-ray optics and complex scientific hardware and X-ray detectors, allows us to perform measurements down to sub-second time resolution. The samples vary from gases to solid samples and may require the use of tailored reactor cells or cryogenic temperatures, for example. An advanced gas mixing system is also being installed to serve user experiments. High levels of reliability are required at Balder to enable users to carry out experiments 24/7.
Would you like to work at one of the brightest lightsources in the world?
MAX IV is looking for a technician to support the beamline. As a technician at Balder you will be an important part of our team supporting the scientists and technical support groups during beamline maintenance, commissioning and operations.

You will ensure that all work on the beamline and support workshop is carried out in a safe manner.
Your main work tasks will be
- As part of the beamline team and in collaboration with engineering support groups, perform beamline installations, maintenance and trouble-shooting work especially when handling vacuum components, gas components and complex mechanical parts
- Assembly and maintenance of beamline equipment (gas system, cryo cooler, cryostat, vacuum pumps, motion stages)
- Responsible for the beamline specific workshop and equipment pool
- Assist in assembly, maintenance, and installation of sample environment and sample holders.
To be successful in this role you need to have the following qualifications
- Technical oriented education, for example, engineering diploma. You should be able to show examples of practical skills in your area of expertise
