- Assist in-house and visiting scientists with the preparation of their experiments and advise instrument users on technical matters concerning sample environment and instrumentation during experiments
- Contribute to the design and development of equipment for LADI / DALI and other instruments of the LSS group in collaboration with other ILL services
- Ensure compliance with instrument safety regulations, particularly those related to nuclear safety.

**Your profile**
- You have a Level 4/5 qualification (HNC/HND, foundation degree or equivalent) in physical measurements, instrumentation or a similar field, together with a few years of professional experience.
- You are proficient in the use of conventional physical measurement techniques, such as optical, electrical or mechanical techniques, for measuring pressure, liquid and gas flow control, etc.
- You can perform maintenance on conventional equipment, including laboratory apparatus.
- You have a practical approach to your work and are keen to learn new skills.
