The European Spallation Source (ESS) will soon be the world’s most powerful source of neutrons, providing researchers with unique opportunities to explore the structure of materials at the atomic level. Neutron scattering at ESS will address critical questions in physics, chemistry, geology, materials science and life science.

About the role:

As ESS gets closer to its steady-state operations phase, we're looking for an Electronics Technician to join our Radio Frequency (RF) Group. The RF Group is part of the Accelerator division at ESS, and is responsible for defining, designing, installing, commissioning and maintaining the complex systems and amplifiers required for the operation of our particle accelerator.

We are looking for a technician to assist with testing, operation and maintenance of high-powered amplifiers, power supplies and electronics. You will be working closely with, and assisting other members of, the RF group - as well as having your own short- and longer-term assignments. While much of the work is of an electronics and RF nature, we’re looking for a versatile technician who wants to learn new skills to take on a variety of tasks.

Day-to-day, you will:

Assist with electrical and mechanical installation of the RF systems including rack mounted components, cabling and assembly.

Read, maintain and update electrical schematics and mechanical drawings.

Carry out testing of components on delivery, following installation and when in operation.

Follow established procedures and document findings.

Work with RF, electronics and mechanical activities within your competence.

Conduct system testing and fault finding.

Perform soldering, crimping and light machining to fabricate and repair electronic circuit sub-assemblies and systems.

Assist with the repair of components.

This is a permanent role which is based “on-site” at the brand-new https://youtu.be/d5h4bIEfM5Q?si=W28A9wLAkYK3HOXJ. Whilst this is not a shift-working position, the role may require displaced working hours and on-call support.

About you:

We are looking for a well-qualified, hands-on, self-motivated person who is keen to support your colleagues, but who can also manage your own tasks. Some experience of installation, commissioning and operation of complex, preferably high-power, amplifier systems is essential. We have one of the largest RF installations in Europe, with more than 150 high power amplifiers, over 400 electronics racks, solid state amplifiers, RF distribution, power supplies and auxiliary systems, interlock systems and controls.

The operation of the ESS facility depends on highly reliable RF systems that must perform consistently around the clock. We are therefore looking for a focused and dedicated colleague who understands the need to work safely and to a very high level of quality.

As a positive and proactive person, you are someone who demonstrates a willingness to learn and get involved. We need someone with:

Very good general mechanical, electrical, wiring and installation knowledge.

Training and experience in electrical installation and electrical safety.

The knowledge to read, understand and produce electrical schematics using EPLAN, AutoCAD or similar.

Fault finding and troubleshooting abilities.

Practical experience of working with electronic circuits, electronic racks, cabling and wiring.

Experience of test and measurement procedures - including the use of multimeters, oscilloscopes and specialised test equipment.

Exceptional interpersonal skills and the ability to be a true team player.

The official working language of ESS is English, so we need someone who is comfortable with communicating in English on a daily basis.

To apply:

Working at ESS gives you the opportunity to contribute to the future discoveries within neutron science at a stunning, brand-new workplace filled with innovative minds and brilliant people from across the globe. We offer market competitive, individualised compensation which is differentiated according to role, responsibilities, individual skills, abilities and achievements as well as monthly pension contributions on top of your salary.

If you see yourself in what we’re looking for, please provide your CV and motivation letter in English by clicking on “Apply” and following the instructions. Please be aware that we can only accept direct applications made via the ESS website.

DEFENCE & NATIONAL SECURITY RF COMMUNICATIONS LEAD MAIN PURPOSE OF THE JOB Radio communications is at the heart of much of what Cambridge Consultants does, and in this role you will be joining an established team of commercial and technical leaders working with clients delivering projects into the Defence and National Security sector. In this market we architect a range of both standards based and fully custom radio systems for a wide range of applications including low power long range systems and highly flexible high-performance software defined systems. Our work involves significant collaboration with clients, working together to help innovate the best approach to what can be very challenging requirements. In the early stages of a client engagement, we need to be ambitious and bold, we need to think laterally, apply system design and modelling skills and embrace early experimentation and field measurements, if useful. Overall though, we need to quickly work through the challenges and create a plan to deliver the client the most impactful solution in the most efficient way possible. To do this well, the successful applicant needs to have strong and broad radio communications experience, enjoy spending time client facing, have imagination and most importantly have a strong “can do” attitude and preferably sector experience. You will often work with our account managers to define work programmes and our commercial approach to help win work. You will be able to work on your own initiative and develop programmes of work from early stage to deployed capability. Developing key client relationships and repeat business built on trust is the cornerstone of our commercial approach and your responsibilities will include an important element of client management during project delivery. RESPONSIBILITIES * Be a strong subject matter expert in the field of RF communication systems * Work with our broader team to provide input to bids and delivery of projects * Maintain strong technical relationships with key individuals within client and potential client organisations to enable further sales opportunities * Interact with teams across the whole of Cambridge Consultants to bring the best technology to our clients to solve their problems You will also use your strong technical skills to communicate what Cambridge Consultants can deliver to potential clients.
