About ForMAX

The ForMAX beamline is designed for multiscale structural characterization of materials from macroscopic to molecular length scales, by combining x-ray microtomography with small- and wide-angle x-ray scattering (SWAXS). A particular focus will be the development of new materials and specialty chemicals from forest raw material, contributing towards our transition to a sustainable, bio-based economy.

We are now looking for a research engineer with responsibility of defining, planning, and implementing engineering projects for the ForMAX beamline.

The tasks include

During construction and commissioning phases:

  • Contribute to the detailed design and engineering of the experimental station
  • Plan and take part in the installation of the x-ray optics and the experimental station
  • Take part in commissioning of the beamline

During operations phase:

  • Partake in the design, integration, and commissioning of sample environments
  • Share responsibility for operation, maintenance, and further development of the beamline, together with the rest of the ForMAX team

  • PhD or engineering degree in a relevant subject
  • Documented experience in managing instrumentation projects
  • Knowledgeable in mechanical engineering
  • Ability to work independently and take initiatives
  • Strong social and communication skills
  • Good command of written and spoken English

The following qualifications are considered a merit:

  • Experience in design/procurement/construction and/or maintenance of complex scientific instrumentation, in particular synchrotron radiation instrumentation
  • Knowledgeable in 3D-CAD/CAM software
  • Experience in microtomography and/or SWAXS
  • Previous work experience at a research facility

This is a permanent employment. Probational period may apply.
