Job Title: Technical Project Supervisor

The Superconducting Magnet Division (SMD) designs, builds, and tests superconducting magnets for use in particle accelerators world-wide. The SMD also builds magnets for various other applications (e.g., Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage) and provides magnetic measurement services lab-wide.



This position involves supervising and training electrical technicians. Supervision will involve oversight of electrical support of daily magnet testing and magnet construction activities. In addition, Superconducting Magnet Division (SMD) is embarking on a modernization of its cryogenic test facility to prepare for the EIC Project and other R&D activities. Upgrades already underway include all systems, cryogenics, power supply, energy extraction, quench protection, data acquisition, field measurement, instrumentation, and monitoring systems. These upgrades include dismantling outdated systems and replacing them with systems of newer design from various sources.



Essential Duties and Responsibilities:
Responsible for the control and coordination of a large complex technical support function for (SMD) Superconducting Magnet Division.
Either directly, or with the assistance of a subordinate technical supervisor, directs the work of highly skilled technicians in such areas as construction, maintenance, operation or development of specialized scientific equipment or facilities.
