SLAC Job Postings
Position Overview:
The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) Directorate at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory is seeking an Accelerator Technologist IV to join our Technical Support team.
In this position you will work under minimal supervision and perform assignments of advanced complexity in machining and fabrication and perform assignments of intermediate complexity.
Members of our Technical Support team are responsible for providing support across multiple disciplines for Scientific Users in each of our experimental hutches along with planning for and installing all new or modified systems.
The Accelerator Technologist IV provides support to scientist, engineers and scientific users/research across multiple disciplines.
This position is expected to be highly proficient and work under general supervision and support mechanical, vacuum, electronics or instrumentation and controls of moderate to advance complexity.
Work may involve complete systems as well as components, modules, or subsystems.
The Accelerator Technologist IV independently plans and conducts a block of work as a complete project, or as a portion of a larger and more diverse project under general supervision with strict adherence to site-specific safety as well as work planning and control (WPC) protocols.
Assignments may be of a scheduling and planning nature, coordinating work performed by other individuals, ensuring efficient use of resources and monitoring target dates, coordinating and/or overseeing the work of other technicians, and evaluating possible effects on the end use application of an item, system or process.
Your specific responsibilities include: Perform advanced and substantially complex fabrication, machining, mechanical repair, precision alignment, and preventive maintenance on equipment following existing Operational & Safety procedures and standards.
Assignment may include integrated work and performance across multiple disciplines.
Operate a wide variety of conventional and CNC machine tools including 5th axis machining center, Haas CNC lathe, mill, EDM, precision grinding equipment to produce complex components for scientific research applications from solid models, mechanical drawings and/or sketches, with a very high level of expertise routinely holding extremely tight tolerances.
Efficiently setup, program and operate vertical and horizontal, two, three and four and five axis CNC machine tools and electrical discharge machine (EDM) for tasks of advanced complexity.
Assist customers with material selection, fabrication solutions and design for manufacturability solutions.
Use of precision measuring tools (micrometer, calipers, height gauge, etc.
) to verify parts conformance to specification.
Operate cranes, hoists, and forklift to move material as well as large mechanical equipment safely.
Act as person in charge (PIC) in the shop or field Develop and establish written procedures.
Independently assemble, install, and maintain complex, precision mechanical and vacuum components assemblies and/or systems from solid models, verbal instruction or utilizing detailed technical assembly or installation drawings as well as consistent application of approved vacuum techniques and practices Ability to administer the safety protocols for safe and reliable beam to the LCLS hutches.
Become proficient in monitoring and operating beam-line safety components and maintain associated documents and records.
Perform mechanical repair, precision alignment, and preventive maintenance on equipment following existing Operational & Safety procedures and standards.
Work with experimenters, engineers, physicists, and other groups on the design, installation, modification, and performance of user systems.
Work schedule will include overtime hours, off-shift, alternate work schedules (AWS)weekends & holiday schedules.
To be successful in this position you will bring: The successful candidate must have completed, or be in the process of completing a certified machinist apprenticeship and have 5 years of journey level machining experience or have an equivalent combination of vocational school, on the job training and experience.
