* Perform factory and site acceptance tests of new and replacement detector systems and install and commission on the neutron instruments at ACNS.
* Create, revise and update source code, documentation (user manual, design manual, troubleshooting guides, and maintenance procedures), drawings and issue tracker to ensure instrument configurations and issues are accurately documented as per the ACNS Quality System under standard ISO9001.
* Ensure a client focus is maintained by working together with the instrument scientists who manage and operate the neutron instruments.
* Work with other detector and electronic engineers within ANSTO research infrastructure platforms particularly Australian Synchrotron and Centre for Accelerator Science to assist with the development and maintenance of systems including approaches to standardisation
Skills and Experience
* Degree in Bachelor of Engineering in electronics or Bachelor of Science in computing and/or physics and/or mathematics.
* Experience in the use and/or calibration and/or design of neutron or X-ray detectors and/or related/similar systems
* Experience in electronic engineering of data acquisition systems using FPGA based hardware, computing hardware and software and networking.
* Experience (5-10 years for more senior candidates) in developing VHDL or Verilog code, and C/C++ code for device control, in the use of issue tracking and version control and writing processes for calibration, repairs and maintenance.
“The DAE team is looking for an exceptional candidate at junior or more senior level, a fast learner ready to take the challenge posed by the detector specialist position. The ideal candidate is a great communicator, will perfectly integrate and contribute to the team, has a client focus and is ready to further develop her/his knowledge of neutron detector systems. ” – Andrew Berry, Manager, DAE Systems
