HI EPICS Users List Members,

 

             I am an Executive Recruiter with and Engineering Degree working on a very exciting retained

search and hoping to find skilled and qualified applicants.

 

             My exciting client is a very promising startup in the field of particle accelerators for medical radioisotope

production.  They are located currently in the Los Angeles area, but will be moving to Salt Lake City,

Utah, in the next year.  They offer pre-IPO incentives like stock options, etc., and are seeking someone

with an advanced degree who has expertise in design, development and testing for diagnostic systems

of their proprietary systems.  Please see the description, below:

 

Instrumentation Physicist/Engineer

My Client is an early phase company committed to advancing the way radioisotopes are made. They represent the first true turning point in the history of the field of radioisotope manufacturing since the advent of the cyclotron. By augmenting a standard linear accelerator with a proprietary high-current multiparticle ion source, their solution can generate radioisotopes with a very high yield and specific activity and is poised to become the state-of-the-art technology. Their technology is uniquely suited for the generation of therapeutic radioisotopes. These radioisotopes, while historically challenging to produce in quantities and for the cost that allow for robust growth of the field, are on the precipice of widespread clinical use for personalized cancer therapy.

The Company is uniquely positioned to support and foster the growth of this important application, and is founded on the idea that the greatest scientific asset isn’t raw material or technology but vision — and the freedom to follow that vision wherever it leads. So while the treatments of tomorrow will surely be built on advanced physics and sophisticated chemistry, they’ll be driven by creativity and fueled by spontaneity. In the world our technology enables, neither will have limits.

 

Position Summary: The Instrumentation Physicist/Engineer will lead the design, development, testing, and installation of Company’s diagnostic systems. They will translate high-level specifications driven by physics and operational requirements into specifications for devices to be installed on the accelerator beam line. This position will interface with Company’s internal science and engineering staff in addition to a number of external consultants and vendors. This position will work remote until the corporate move to the Salt Lake City, UT area in late 2021 / early 2022.

 

Key Responsibilities

· Design, specify, develop, and manage procurement of particle beam measurement systems for the Company’s accelerator

· Analyze results of particle beam measurements and draw conclusions

· Analyze physics and engineering problems using traditional analytical methods as well as simulations

· Work with the engineering team to translate the physics of particle beam measurement into devices to be deployed on the Company’s accelerator

· Work with the controls team to integrate the measurement systems into the accelerator control system and provide troubleshooting support as needed

· Review and approve specifications for internal and external production

· Interface with Company consultants and scientific literature to bring their knowledge and experience

 

Required Experience & Qualifications

· Minimum of three years of professional experience

· Experience designing, simulating, constructing, and testing particle beam measurement systems or other similar devices (RF antennas, particle detectors)

· Experience with analyzing measurements and drawing conclusions based on data

· Experience with signal processing and conditioning

· Experience with a 3D CAD software (SolidWorks and EPDM preferred)

· Experience with schematic capture/PCB layout software

· Ability to analyze physics and engineering problems, develop a solution, and deploy that solution for timely results

 

Preferred Experience & Qualifications

· More than five years of professional experience

· Experience with vacuum systems in scientific or industrial settings

· Experience working with EPICS to commission and run an accelerator

· Experience leading system development in scientific of industrial settings

· Experience with diagnostic devices used to tune and commission RF accelerating structures Education

· MS/PhD in Physics or Electrical Engineering Physical Requirements

· Must be able to lift, push and/or pull a maximum of 50 pounds.

· Work to be conducted in both an office environment and the production facility.

· Must be able to sit for long periods of time.

· Frequent use of computer with repetitive use of keyboard, mouse and manual dexterity.

· 2-4 weeks of travel per year for visiting vendors and attending conferences

 

            Best Regards,

            Nick
