Scientific Instrumentation Specialist for the CHIRAX ERC Project at Elettra and FERMI
3 settimane fa
Job Description
The CHIRAX project, a European Research Council-funded initiative, focuses on implementing X-ray spectroscopy of chiral molecules in solution using circular and helical dichroism to study their structure and various dynamic processes. Experimental activities involve designing and developing new instrumentation for use at Elettra, FERMI, and other laboratories worldwide.
Key Responsibilities
The successful candidate will be responsible for providing technical support for the development, operation, and maintenance of various experimental set-ups, working closely with the project scientific staff. This involves installing and maintaining advanced scientific instrumentation, such as liquid delivery systems in vacuum and experimental chambers. The selected candidate will also be involved in designing and implementing mechanical and optical set-ups.
Requirements
- An industrial technician diploma with specialization in mechanics, or equivalent, is required.
- Experience in machine tool operation (drill, lathe, and milling machine) and EDM machines is desired.
- Demonstrated technical drawing skills with CAD programs (CATIA or SolidWorks) and proficiency in Office applications (Word, Excel) are required.
- Previous experience as a technician in mechanical or micro-mechanical workshops will be positively evaluated.
- Knowledge of basic vacuum practices will be considered an advantage.
- Good oral and written communication skills in Italian and basic oral and written communication skills in English are essential.
Appointment and Salary
The appointment will be a fixed-term employment contract with an initial duration of 12 months, renewable upon agreement by the parties. The salary will be commensurate with previous experience and qualifications of the candidate.
Application Guidelines
Applications should include a full curriculum vitae and the names and contact information (including electronic mail) of up to two persons who have agreed to provide references.
