Arbetsbeskrivning

The European Spallation Source is one of the largest science and technology infrastructure projects being built today. The project includes the most powerful linear proton accelerator ever built, a five-tonne, helium-cooled tungsten target wheel, 15 state-of-the-art neutron instruments, a suite of laboratories, and a supercomputing data management and software development centre. In the context of its history and future as a scientific organisation, however, it is more than the sum of its parts. It is a brand-new Big Science organisation and we are building it from the ground up. Come and build the future of Science with us! About the role: We are looking for a Control system integrator to join our Hardware & Integration Group. The group is responsible for the integration of all hardware in the ESS facility into the integrated control system. This includes a diverse flora of different systems ranging from PLC systems for water flow control to fast FPGA-based data acquisition systems, all integrated towards the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System software framework. You will be a part of a large and diverse control systems team with highly qualified, experienced and supportive colleagues working together during an intensive, developing commissioning phase. The team is divided into five work packages with great focus on dynamic collaboration, technical expertise and careful quality follow-ups. Together you will work to develop local control systems and integrate them with the epics framework. In your role as Control System Integrator, your key responsibilities and tasks will include: • Responsible for development and integration of control systems • Responsible for verification of integrated control systems • Reference engineer for the beam diagnostic controls • Participant in radio frequency control systems development These responsibilities are essential for the effective integration and operation of control systems within the organisation. This is a full-time, permanent position with a 6 month probationary period based at the ESS Campus in Lund, Sweden. About you: We attach great importance to personality and attitude, so we're looking for a real team player: Someone who is sociable, has excellent communication skills, who likes to collaborate with different people and who is committed to helping this amazing project to realise its full potential. We need a hands-on self-starter who can work in a structured, organized, responsible, and above all, safe manner. Key requirements for this role include: • 2+ years of experience from work with Control system integration • 3+ years of experience from integrating control systems preferably using EPICS but experience from industrial standards such as SCADA is a distinct advantage. • Experience with embedded software development using C++, in particular low lever driver development • Experience with MTCA is meriting • Experience from radio frequency (RF) control systems for particle accelerators is highly meriting • Experience from Big science projects, higher academic degree in related topic as well as knowledge and experience of quality assurance and verification of control systems would be a real advantage. As a person you have excellent problem-solving and analytical skills and are curious and open to new challenges. Fluency in written and spoken English is a requirement, as it is the working language at ESS. Knowledge of Swedish language is advantageous. What can we offer? Aside from the chance to work at truly unique big science project, you can also expect: • An opportunity to contribute to the future discoveries within neutron science. • A stunning, brand new workplace filled with innovative minds and brilliant people from across the globe. • A challenging, innovative and stimulating work environment. • Market competitive compensation that is individual and differentiated according to role, responsibilities, individual skills, abilities and achievements. • 30 days of annual leave, as well as more than 10 days of public holiday and company days off or days with limited working hours. • Monthly pension contributions on top of your salary. • Flexible working arrangements and a real work-life balance. • Interested?
