Job Description
Cryogenics Engineer
DescriptionAre you passionate about the future of physics?
Do you enjoy seeking innovative solutions to unusual technical problems using modern cryogenic systems?
Do you want to work in a highly collaborative environment with experts in their fields?
If so, we are seeking someone like you to join us at APL!The Physics Group is seeking outstanding cryogenics engineers at all experience levels. We are a hardworking group of scientists, engineers, and physicists who strive to develop innovative cryogenic technologies for the benefit of our nation. We are committed to scientific excellence and continuous improvement, valuing high-risk, high-reward ideas, honest discussion, and open collaboration.
As a Cryogenics Engineer, you will:
Support existing programs through day-to-day operations of various systems and experiments. Supply high-quality ideas and insights on both existing and future problems, leading to novel solutions applicable to APL's mission and sponsor needs.
Perform creative, independent research characterizing thermal, magnetic, and electrical properties of materials in dry 1K, 4K and dilution refrigerator systems. Collaborate with a team of physicists, electrical engineers, materials scientists, and fabrication technicians to design experiments, process data, and present findings. Be encouraged to fill leadership roles on existing projects, and to propose new research directions for APL's sponsors. QualificationsYou meet our minimum qualifications for the job if you...Possess a Bachelor's Degree or higher in physics, engineering or a closely related field (e.g., materials science, applied physics).Have 1+ year experience with cryogenic systems or in characterizing materials or systems at cryogenic temperatures.
Have a strong desire to work in a highly collaborative, interdisciplinary, applied science environment.
Are able to obtain an Interim Secret level security clearance by your start date and can ultimately obtain a TS/SCI w/ Polygraph security clearance. If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and need to meet the requirements for access to classified information. Eligibility requirements include U.S. citizenship.
You will go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you...Have a Master's degree or higher in engineering, physics, or a closely related field.
Have experience measuring thermal and electrical properties of materials at cryogenic temperatures.
Have experience designing and troubleshooting experimental setups in cryogenic systems.
Have extensive experience operating millikelvin test systems.
Have an active TS/SCI w/ Polygraph security clearance.
