Brookhaven National Laboratory was recently chosen as the building site for the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), a one-of-a-kind nuclear physics research facility. The EIC will be a discovery machine for unlocking the secrets of the "glue" that binds the building blocks of visible matter in the universe. The machine design is based on the existing and highly optimized RHIC Ion-Ion collider. It will consist of two intersecting accelerators, one producing an intense beam of electrons, the other a beam of protons or heavier atomic nuclei which are steered into collisions. Beyond sparking scientific discoveries in a new frontier of fundamental physics, the Electron-Ion Collider will trigger technological breakthroughs that have broad-ranging impact on human health and national challenges.
Position Description
We seek an Electrical Engineer to join our Power Supply Systems group. In this role, you will work with team members developing, designing, procuring, testing, and installing superconducting magnet quench detection and quench protection devices for the EIC. In addition, you will be part of a team modifying superconducting magnet connections, voltage taps and cryogenic feedthroughs as well as installing new superconducting magnets. These superconducting magnet systems control the path of the beams for the EIC accelerator systems. You will assist in developing specifications, documenting, and developing plans, schedules, and cost, tracking, and managing execution, and monitoring and reacting to project risks and scope adjustments. We seek candidates with a background in superconducting magnets, quench protection and power electronics and who enjoy working in a collaborative, team environment.
Join BNL at the beginning of this ground-breaking scientific and engineering project and become part of the team building this scientific discovery machine (bnl.gov/eic).
