Plan and control production of electron microscopes and mass spectrometers: build schedules from demand forecasts, track progress, manage shipments and keep inventory at the right level.
About this role
A hardware development role on EDS (energy-dispersive X-ray) analysers, which mount on SEM, TEM and other electron microscopes to identify which elements a sample contains. Another group team develops the semiconductor sensor; this position builds the complete detector around it, plus the downstream signal processing and analyser.
Tasks include writing X-ray detector design specifications, evaluating detectors, and testing new analyser signal-processing algorithms on real equipment. A detector combines low-outgassing vacuum design, cooling of the semiconductor device, magnetic-field analysis and electrical and mechanical structures for signal quality. Tools include in-house software, field analysis tools and Python.
Applicants need either a science or engineering degree (physics, electrical or electronic engineering) or experience designing, developing or experimentally evaluating products or equipment. X-ray analysis and microscope expertise are not needed at entry.
