GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung” in Darmstadt operates one of the leading particle accelerators for science Currently, the new FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research), one of the world's largest research projects, will be built in international cooperation. GSI and FAIR offer the opportunity working in this international environment together with a team of employees committed to conduct world-class science every day.

The division of “Superconducting Magnets & Testing”(SCM) is looking at the earliest possible date for an

Engineer or Physicists (all gender)

Reference 24.127-6353

for the qualification of the superconducting components for the FAIR particle accelerator facilities. As part of the FAIR project, many superconducting electromagnets will have to be qualified for operation in the FAIR systems in the coming years and tested for functionality during the installation and commissioning of the systems.

Your active participation in the qualification of the components will contribute significantly to the successful start of the FAIR facility.

Your tasks:

• Execution of standardized Site Acceptance Tests (SAT) on SIS100 and Super FRS superconducting components according to predefined test procedures.
• Analysis of the measurement results and verification of the physical plausibility and compliance with the specified parameters.
• Documentation of the measurement results and responsible released of test sections as well as coordination with the test stand manager.
• Preparation and execution of advanced tests in case of nonconformities on superconducting components.
• Error diagnosis and development of proposals for solution in the field of measurement technology.
• Maintenance of the measuring equipment as well as an active participation in the optimization and further development of the measurement equipment.
• Assembling of test setups in close cooperation with the specialist groups involved.
• Carrying out acceptance tests on assemblies for the magnetic protection electronics.
• Intensive participation in the installation and commissioning of the superconducting components in the FAIR accelerator facilities.
• Preparation of procurement for new hardware according to the needs of test stand.

Your profile:

• Degree (M.Sc. or diploma) in applied or engineering physics or engineering scince, specializing in electrical engineering or a comparable qualification. Ideally, a master's thesis in the field of superconducting magnet technology or low-temperature physics.
• Profound knowledge and professional experience in at least one of the following areas: electrical measurement technology, electromagnets, measurement data acquisition and data analysis, low-temperature physics (cryogenics).
• Know how in dealing with measuring systems for determining electrical parameters.
• Profound knowledge with data acquisition systems and analysis methods.
• Skills of MS Windows and Linux operating systems as well as MS Office applications.
• Independent, structured way of working with a high level of proactivity and responsibility as well as good team skills and ability to work under pressure.
• Fluent in written and spoken English, ideally good knowledge of German.

We offer a multifaceted and interesting position within an internationally well-accepted research facility.

The position is limited until 31.12.2027. Salary is as specified in the collective agreement for public employees (TVöD Bund), effective at GSI.

GSI supports the vocational development of women. Therefore, women are especially encouraged to apply for this position.

Handicapped persons will preferentially be considered when equally qualified.
