- Institution
- ALBA 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. 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.

For more information, you can take a look on our history watching this video:

- To provide support to the users of different XAS instruments, in particular the industry users.
- To provide support to the scientific and industrial projects involving the XAS techniques.
- To provide full support for experiments preparation, data collection, analysis, interpretation and the generation of meaningful reports to the industry clients.
- To support the industry clients related with XAS techniques to understand their needs and to provide them guidance before, during and after the service provision
- To understand the industry client needs and to help in developing the ALBA capabilities related to XAS.
- To organise and to participate in national and international outreach events to promote the use of synchrotron techniques by the industry.
- To support technology transfer activities.

- hold a PhD degree in Physics, Chemistry, Material Science or related disciplines at the signature of the contract.
- have a good command of written and spoken English. The working language in ALBA is English.
- Selection Process Development
- The 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:

- Scientific experience in XAS techniques (10 points)
- Technical experience in XAS techniques (10 points)
- Experience in fields like catalysis, energy storage or environmental sciences with strong emphasis in XAS results (10 points)
- Experience in programming languages, especially in Python (5 points)
- Industry experience related to XAS techniques (5 points)

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 the following aspects, among others:

- Presentation of professional experience (15 points)
