Entry-Level Electronics & Controls Engineering Technician -- Accelerators
Starfire is seeking a highly motivated persons to join our technical engineering team to support particle accelerator production, test, and validation. We seek candidates for two similar roles: (1) electrostatic high-voltage accelerators and (2) electromagnetic pulsed microwave accelerators. In both roles, the candidate will support electronic circuit assembly, electronics subsystem fabrication & testing, support digital & analog communications with embedded microcontrollers, and support high-voltage and plasma source testing and measurement.
We seek candidates familiar with electronic test and measurement, data acquisition and analysis. Familiarity with electronic hardware and/or electrical systems from an assembly and testing perspective. Building on your base electronics knowledge, we will provide job-specific training unique to our products and technologies. You will enjoy “hands-on” work alongside the scientific team supporting on a diverse set of applications.
For candidates with B.S. degrees, this position is eligible to earn an “on-the-job” Masters of Engineering (M.Eng.) Degree through a professional program between Starfire and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Plasma Engineering or Electrical Engineering. If eligible and meeting requirements, Starfire will reimburse tuition costs for the M.Eng. while working 75% full time over a two-year period. The M.Eng. capstone project will be directly relevant to work at Starfire.
