About the Role
We are seeking a highly skilled Beamline Scientist to join the Coherent Soft X-ray Imaging and Diffraction (CSXID) beamline at Diamond Light Source. The successful candidate will play a key role in the development of our quantum materials imaging endstation, which will support research into 3D imaging of topological magnetic spin textures, skyrmions and chiral systems, time-resolved magnetisation dynamics, antiferromagnetic and multiferroic materials and nanopatterned devices.
The Beamline Scientist will be responsible for championing the detailed design, prototyping, construction, commissioning, and ongoing optimisation of the endstation. They will also collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary team to drive the development of both hardware and software, requiring excellent communication and organisational skills.
The successful candidate will have a strong background in quantum or functional materials, with experience in synchrotron measurements such as coherent imaging, ptychography, polarised soft x-ray scattering. They will also have experimental skills, and the ability to conduct high quality original research.
Applications with an active research program in imaging quantum materials or a related field are encouraged. The research program should ideally include experience with in-situ sample environments including the experimental setup, analysis, and interpretation of data.
About You
You will hold an appropriate Science or Engineering Degree or equivalent as well as a PhD and proven relevant experience in a scientific field relevant to the post. You will also demonstrate experience and knowledge in the following areas:
- Quantum or functional materials
- Synchrotron measurements such as coherent imaging, ptychography, polarised soft x-ray scattering
- Synchrotron-based x-ray techniques, ideally with experience of coherent imaging or polarised x-ray spectroscopy
- Experimental skills, and the ability to conduct high quality original research
- Health, Safety and Environmental policies and procedures
- Python programming for data analysis, data acquisition and the control of scientific equipment
Diamond offers an exceptional benefits package to support staff in achieving a positive work/life balance. This includes 26 days annual leave plus Christmas closure, public holidays, 2 annual volunteering days and flexible working hours. We also offer an excellent defined benefit pension scheme. Staff also have access to a range of amenities on site including a nursery, cafes, a restaurant and sports and leisure facilities. A relocation allowance may also be available where applicable.
