What is a photo researcher?

A Photo Researcher is responsible for finding, licensing, and acquiring images for publications, media projects, or marketing materials. They work with stock agencies, archives, and photographers to source high-quality visuals that match project needs. They must verify copyright details, negotiate usage rights, and ensure compliance with licensing agreements. Strong research skills, attention to detail, and an understanding of visual composition are essential for success in this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a photo researcher?

To thrive as a Photo Researcher, you need expertise in sourcing, licensing, and cataloging images, often supported by a degree in art, history, media, or a related field. Familiarity with image databases, rights management platforms, and tools like Adobe Photoshop is commonly required. Exceptional attention to detail, organizational skills, and effective communication set top candidates apart. These abilities ensure accurate, legal, and timely acquisition of images that meet project needs and client expectations.

What are the typical challenges faced by photo researchers on the job?

Photo Researchers often face challenges such as locating high-quality, rights-cleared images that meet specific project criteria and tight deadlines. Navigating complex copyright laws and negotiating usage rights with agencies or photographers is a common aspect of the job. Collaboration with editors, designers, and legal teams is frequent, requiring adaptability and clear communication. Overcoming these challenges helps ensure projects use compelling visuals while staying compliant with legal and budgetary requirements.

NIST PREP Research Scientist in High Speed Metrology for Magnetoelectronic Devices and Models

Southeastern Universities Research Association

Boulder, CO • On-site

$95K - $99K/yr

Full-time

Re-posted 23 days ago

Job description

This position is part of the National Institute of Standards (NIST) Professional Research Experience (PREP) program. NIST recognizes that its research staff may wish to collaborate with researchers at academic institutions on specific projects of mutual interest and thus requires that such institutions be the recipients of a PREP award. The PREP program requires staff from a wide range of backgrounds to work on scientific research in many areas. Employees in this position will perform technical work that underpins the scientific research of the collaboration.
Research Title: High speed metrology for magnetoelectronic devices and models: Research Associate
The work will entail: This position focuses on developing film-level optical methods of measuring the Heisenberg exchange parameter in thin films relevant to the magnetic random-access memory (MRAM) industry. These measurements will be correlated with detailed measurements of device performance made on devices fabricated at NIST, and these correlations will be used to develop better models of device switching. In addition, the Associate will work on the development of electrical methods for estimating the attempt time of MRAM bit cells. In each of these projects the Associate will work closely with NIST staff, but the Associate must be self-motivated in designing and executing measurements, developing robust data analysis methods with proper statistical validation, and reporting these results to the group and via publication. This is a fast-paced, high impact, short-term research position with a maximum duration of 12 months. Note that this is an in-person position located in Boulder, CO.
U.S. Citizen Preferred
Key responsibilities will include but are not limited to:
  • Designing, building, maintaining, and using optical measurement systems based on inelastic light scattering
  • Developing high speed electronic (microwave) measurements, including pulsed, harmonic, sampled and real-time measurement methods using microwave sources, arbitrary waveform generators, and oscilloscopes
  • Analyze heterogeneous data sources including optical spectra, read- and write-error rate datastreams, real-time and sampled high speed electronic traces.
  • Analyze temperature-dependent magnetization data using advanced atomistic fitting models
  • Fabricating magnetoelectronic devices using optical and electron beam lithography, reactive and physical ion etching methods.
  • Presenting results at internal meetings, and occasional meetings with external stakeholders.
  • Ensuring that results, protocols, software, and documentation have been archived or otherwise transmitted to the larger organization.

Qualifications
  • A Ph.D. in Physics, Electrical Engineering, or related field. Several years of post-degree experience in relevant areas preferred.
  • Experience with the design and fabrication of magnetic nanostructures including magnetron sputter and e-beam evaporative deposition or molecular beam epitaxy, electron-beam and photo-lithography
  • Experience with characterization tools including SQUID, Ferromagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, MOKE, x-ray reflectometry, secondary-ion mass spectrometry.
  • Demonstrated experience with micromagnetic simulation tools including MuMAX
  • Demonstrated experience in temperature-dependent magnetic simulations, in particular atomistic simulations of the temperature-dependence of magnetization
  • Experience developing novel data acquisition platforms to acquire DC and RF data at scale.
  • Familiarity with scripting languages including Python and their implementation on GPU clusters for data analysis.
  • Ability to develop tools needed to analyze large datasets using Python, MATLAB, or similar programming environments.
  • Strong oral and written communication skills.
  • Track recording of publishing in peer reviewed scientific journals.
