  • Collaborate with scientific users to support successful experiment execution

  • Serve as Chief Shift Operator as assigned, ensuring safe accelerator operation, including radiation safety compliance

  • Work with system experts to develop and implement improvements in areas such as beam optics, controls, detector systems, and vacuum technology

Position Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in a STEM discipline, such as physics or engineering, is preferred but not required

  • Basic knowledge of one or more technical areas related to accelerator operations, such as:

    • electronics

    • cryogenics

    • computer control and automation systems

    • vacuum systems

    • magnets

    • mechanical systems

  • Familiarity with scientific and engineering concepts relevant to particle accelerator facilities

  • Willingness to learn and work with a broad range of technologies used at ATLAS, including:

    • radio frequency systems

    • analog and digital electronics

    • ion beam optics

    • vacuum systems

    • ion sources

    • magnetics

    • computers and distributed control systems
