Lund University was founded in 1666 and is repeatedly ranked among the world’s top 100 universities. The University has 40 000 students and 7 400 staff based in Lund, Helsingborg and Malmö. We are united in our efforts to understand, explain and improve our world and the human condition.

MAX IV is a national large-scale research laboratory providing scientists from Sweden and the rest of the world with instruments for research in areas such as materials science, structural biology, chemistry and nanotechnology. Fully developed it will receive more than 2 000 scientists annually. 200 people are currently employed at the MAX IV Laboratory.

The MAX IV Controls and IT team deliver solutions to the whole MAX IV organisation in the areas of control system hardware, controls software applications, infrastructure and networking, information management and scientific software. This is a dynamic and highly challenging environment and requires close collaboration with the staff in order to understand the needs and be effective in forming solutions. We are around 30 people in total who work in 5 domains in a well organised and agile way. We hold values of lean management, knowledge spread, user autonomy, continuous improvement and flexibility as guiding principles for our work.

Tasks

At MAX IV we have 16 beamlines under construction or commissioning and 3 open for visiting users.

We expect to continuous develop and probably increase the number of beamlines. With this in mind we are looking for a person with a large experience of working with end stations either in hard or soft x-ray domains. The work will be to assist in designing, building and commissioning systems that integrate timing, motion, detection, and positioning, data collection and eventually metadata collection in a form that is scientific usable. We are typically using equipment developed in collaboration with other facilities. Experience of any of these collaborations is of course an advantage. The hardware team work in an agile way in close collaboration with all other IT teams, beamline staff and scientists, also with other groups in an open and friendly environment.

Qualifications

- Master degree or higher in electronics, system engineering, circuit design, timing or equivalent
- Several years of experience from a synchrotron facility or similar, preferably a beamline.
- Experience from systems integrating motion, timing, and detectors/cameras.

Desirable 

- Experience of working in a research oriented large facility.
- Experience as a researcher that has an understanding of synchrotron end stations.
- Experience of any of the following:  IcePAP, Alba Electrometer, PandABox, Sardana, Tango or other community developed systems.
- Experience from any of the topics: stepper motors, piezo motors, nanometer precision encoders, timing and event handling, detectors / cameras both for beamline surveillances as well as photon and electron detection, measurements with synchrotron beamline equipment, python programming and fpga programming, network configuration, circuit design.

Lund University welcomes applicants with diverse backgrounds and experiences. We regard gender equality and diversity as a strength and an asset. We kindly decline all sales and marketing contacts.
