Technician in the Beamline Support GroupReference 2023-FIX-01
Deadline 09/12/2024
Division Experiments
InstitutionALBA is the Spanish synchrotron light source, a large research infrastructure operating ten beamlines, complementary facilities, and an Electron Microscopy Center, this last in partnership with other institutions. Currently constructing multiple more beamlines, expanding the Electron Microscopy Center, and integrating advanced data analytics, it sums up a wide range of infrastructures geared toward finding solutions to societal challenges.
Located in Cerdanyola del Vallès (Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain), it is funded by the Spanish Government (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación) and the Catalan Government (Generalitat de Catalunya, Departament de Recerca i Universitats). The synchrotron light produced by 3 GeV electrons is used by thousands of researchers to analyse and understand the properties and functionality of matter, spanning a wide variety of fields, such as catalytic research, health, energy production/storage, environmental research, communication technologies, or cultural heritage.
Our highly motivated staff works in a multidisciplinary work environment with an atmosphere formed by lived diversity, inclusion and respect for our colleagues. One of the goals of our gender equality plan is to reach parity within the Consortium's different divisions and offices, and several actions have been taken to encourage applications from women mostly in scientific, engineer and technical job positions.
Located close to Barcelona, in a natural park and well connected by car and public transportation, with excellent connectivity to the world and an employer who understands the importance of life-work balance.
Facing an upgrade to ALBA II, a 4th generation facility, which will increase dramatically brightness and coherent flux, ALBA is in a phase of growth and dynamics. Being a part of the ALBA team will promote your career and will give you the opportunities to explore new territories.
The successful candidate will contribute to the maintenance, operation, and development of ALBA beamline scientific instrumentation, providing operational support to both soft and hard X-ray beamlines. Responsibilities include:
Installation, design, and integration of scientific instrumentation, including the creation of CAD models, as well as the assembly and alignment of mechanical components and systems on the beamlines.Preparation of experimental setups under diverse conditions, ranging from ultra-high vacuum (UHV) to high pressure, as well as under cryogenic environments, which may involve machining or modifying components to meet specific requirements.Ensuring the reliability and performance of beamline mechanical systems, including troubleshooting and optimizing mechanical assemblies as needed.Assisting with a variety of tasks and projects within the Beamline Support Section.RequirementsThe requirements for participation must be met on the date of the deadline for the submission of applications and will be accredited by means of the CV attached to it, without prejudice to the power of the selection body to require the contribution of the originals of the certifications accrediting the qualifications, training and work experience invoked in the CV.
Applications that do not present the aforementioned or required documentation during the selection procedure will not be accepted.
At least 3 years of hands-on experience as a technician in the maintenance, operation, or development of scientific instrumentation, particularly involving high vacuum (HV) and ultra-high vacuum (UHV) technologies.
Fluency in English, both written and spoken, is essential for effective communication within an international environment.
Selection Process DevelopmentThe selection will be carried out through the competition-opposition system.
As a first phase, an analysis of the curriculum will be carried out (assessment of previous experience and / or scientific history, degree, training and other professional information relevant to the position). Career breaks or variations in the chronological order of CVs will be regarded as an evolution of a career, and consequently, as a contribution to the professional development.
The assessment of the CV in the competition phase will be scored up to 40 points, which will consider the following aspects:
Ability to understand mechanical drawings and assemble instruments with motorized high-precision mechanics designed for HV and UHV conditions (10 points).Practical machining skills, including operating lathes and milling machines, to produce and modify small components required for experimental setups, ensuring compliance with technical specifications (10 points).Additional experience in HV and UHV vacuum technology, including hands-on experience in the design, fabrication, assembly, and maintenance of components for vacuum environments (10 points).Practical experience designing with 3D CAD software packages (5 points).Experience in cryogenics and cryo-systems (Liquid N2, He, and closed loop systems) (5 points).The best rated candidates, at least two if possible, will be invited to an interview where the technical competence, knowledge, skills and professional experience linked to the position will be assessed, with a total score of 60 points. A minimum of 30 points must be obtained out of a total of 60 points to be eligible.
Provided they meet the minimum requirements and have ranked among the top five after the assessment of the CV phase, at least one person from the underrepresented gender in the division/office will be interviewed.
The interview will include at least:
Presentation of professional experience (20 points).Auto-assessment of soft skills (10 points).Vision of the job position (20 points).The merits will be accredited by means of the CV attached to the application. The selection board may require accreditation by additional documentation, originals or certified copies confirming the experience invoked in the CV.
In case of a tied final score, the position will be awarded to the person who belongs to the most underrepresented gender in the corresponding Division and subsidiarily to the overall company.
If necessary, alternates of the members of the selection board will be appointed by the president of the selection process, and the change will be published in the announcement.
The resolution of the selection procedure will be carried out within a maximum period of six months from the deadline for submitting applications for participation.
The selection process may be declared vacant if the selection board considers not to have found eligible candidates for the position although they might meet the requirements to participate in the selection process specified in the offer.
Other informationPermanent contract.
The Selection Board is composed by the following members: Klaus Attenkofer, Edmundo Fraga and Montserrat Prieto Moliné.
