The Opportunity

The University of Edinburgh's School of Physics and Astronomy is seeking a highly skilled Postdoctoral Research Associate to join our team in detector development and research. As a key member of our group, you will contribute to the design, development, and testing of advanced detectors for future particle physics experiments.

We are well-integrated in the ECFA detector R&D collaborations and have a strong focus on detector R&D and construction. Our Advanced Detector Development Centre has state-of-the-art facilities, including a 55 m2 ISO-7 clean room, which will provide you with the ideal environment to conduct your research.

Key Responsibilities
  • Conduct high-quality research in particle physics detector instrumentation, with a focus on charged particle detection and photon detection.
  • Develop and lead automated pixel module and service qualification control procedures for the ATLAS ITk Pixel EndCap construction.
  • Work on novel detector R&D and prototyping for the LHCb upgrade II and related DRD activities, including the HV-CMOS silicon pixel detector and fast photon detector.
  • Collaborate with partners, including students and staff from other universities and non-academic stakeholders.
Requirements
  • PhD or equivalent qualification in Experimental Particle Physics, electronic engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience and keen interest in performing high-quality research in particle physics detector instrumentation.
  • Good working knowledge of C++ and/or Python programming languages.
  • Ability to self-motivate and work independently, as well as work as part of a team.
What We Offer

We offer a full-time position (35 hours per week) for 3 years, with the possibility of part-time or flexible working patterns. The University of Edinburgh is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating discrimination. We welcome applications from all qualified candidates and encourage applications from under-represented groups.
