Electrical/Computer Engineer, Beam Instrumentation Job ID 3698 Date posted 04/04/2023 Brookhaven National Laboratory (www.bnl.gov) delivers discovery science and transformative technology to power and secure the nation's future. Brookhaven Lab is a multidisciplinary laboratory with seven Nobel Prize-winning discoveries, 37 R&D 100 Awards, and more than 70 years of pioneering research. The Lab is primarily supported by the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Science. Brookhaven Science Associates (BSA) operates and manages the Laboratory for DOE. BSA is a partnership between Battelle and The Research Foundation for the State University of New York on behalf of Stony Brook University. BSA salutes our veterans and active military members with careers that leverage the skills and unique experience they gained while serving our country. Our organization fully supports service members transitioning from active duty to civilian life and pledge's our commitment to actively hire veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces. Military personnel who have been formally trained or have relevant experience obtained while in service may meet educational requirements and are encouraged to apply for job opportunities at BSA. Organizational Overview The mission of the Collider-Accelerator Department (C-AD) is to operate, maintain, improve, and upgrade the suite of electron, proton, and heavy ion accelerators used to carry out a program of accelerator-based experiments at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). To support this program, the C-AD must design, fabricate, assemble, test, install, and operate unique research equipment to generate, transport, transfer, accelerate, focus, track, collide, and absorb high intensity particle beams up to energies of 250 GeV. This includes a combination of custom designed and built parts and vendor produced components developed by a collaboration of the C-AD scientific, engineering, and technical staff. The C-AD supports an international user community of over 1,500 scientists. The C-AD performs all these functions in an environmentally-responsible and safe manner, under a rigorous conduct of operations approach. Position Description The Collider-Accelerator Department has an opening for an Electrical/Computer Engineer in the Instrumentation Group to design, develop, integrate, commission and support the operation of complex beam instrumentation systems. In this role you will engage in an exciting career developing cutting edge beam instrumentation systems in support of the existing collider-accelerator facility and the future electron-ion collider (EIC) to be constructed at Brookhaven National Laboratory. You will also assist and contribute to the development of complete system solutions to satisfy the physics and operational needs of these complicated machines. Developments may include analog and digital electronic designs, schematic and PCB layouts, feedback control systems, ADCs (analog to digital converter), DACs (digital to analog converter), simulations, digital filter design, gate arrays, VHDL coding, software development and documentation. You will collaborate with multidisciplinary personnel, including accelerator physicists, operators, technicians and other engineers. If you possess solid electronic and/or computer engineering knowledge and you have a thirst for solving difficult engineering problems, we would be happy to train you in the exciting field of accelerators. This position has a high level of interaction with an international and multicultural scientific community. Essential Duties and Responsibilities: Provide operational support of beam instrumentation systems throughout the collider-accelerator complex, such as beam position monitors, beam current and charge monitors, beam profile monitors, beam loss monitors, and more Contribute to the design and development of new beam instrumentation system designs and upgrades as required to satisfy operational requirements of the existing collider-accelerator complex and the future EIC Collaborate and work closely with technicians and other engineers to complete assignments Position Requirements Bachelor's degree in electrical or computer engineering or closely related field Familiarity with digital system design and software development Familiarity with electronic test equipment including function generators, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and multimeters Clear and concise written and verbal communication and good interpersonal skills are required to interact with a diverse group of scientists and technical staff Preferred Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities: Knowledge of digital design, FPGA systems, amplifiers, digital to analog converters, analog to digital converters, digital filter design in gate arrays, and feedback control systems Project experience obtained from previous employment, internships or design projects in regular coursework Knowledge of analog design simulation tools, MATLAB, LabVIEW Knowledge of FPGAs and VHDL Knowledge of computer programming languages such as C/C++, Perl, Python Knowledge of Linux operating system and Microsoft Office applications Environmental, Health & Safety Requirements: Must be able to lift up to 30 lbs Must be able to work at heights of up to five (5) feet OTHER INFORMATION: Must have valid driver's license Appointment level will be commensurate with experience and qualifications This is a fully onsite position located at BNL At Brookhaven National Laboratory we believe that a comprehensive employee benefits program is an important and meaningful part of the compensation employees receive.
