About the Role
As a Technician in the Superconducting Magnet team at HTIC, you will carry out a broad range of complex engineering assignments supporting the development of novel superconducting magnet prototypes, including magnet coil winding, cold mass build-up, and cryostat assembly. Assignments may include set-up and operation of data acquisition equipment, execution of experiments, troubleshooting of hardware/test systems, and documentation and reporting of test results. The Superconducting Magnet Technician also supports compliance and quality activities within the lab and serves as a technical resource for other team members.
Responsibilities
- Apply initiative and independent judgment to build, evaluate and improve complex magnet assemblies and test setups from conceptual descriptions and ideas.
- Collaborate with the team to identify potential failure modes in advance and carry out advanced troubleshooting across multiple interacting variables, driving thorough root cause analysis, and lasting solutions.
- Propose and execute experiments and diagnostic tests to develop conclusions and solutions.
- Take the lead on hardware evaluations, planning and executing them using knowledge of magnet construction, system operation, and specialized engineering tools, with guidance from engineers and scientists.
- Communicate recommendations that improve design, manufacturing process, reliability, functionality, serviceability, and workflow, including input on externally sourced components and materials.
- Own day-to-day operational responsibilities spanning EHS, purchasing, inventory control, workspace organization, documentation, and task prioritization.
- Work with the management team to lead and deploy technical and EHS training plans, as needed.
- Comply with EHS regulations and policies.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in engineering or technology related field or Associate's degree with 5 to 7 years' experience in electromagnetic coil or electronics winding (superconducting coils preferred).
- Demonstrated strong problem-solving skills, including the ability to understand and address root causes of mechanical issues in magnet fabrication in investigational prototypes.
- Ability to draw accurate conclusions from test data, malfunctions, or deviations, and coordinate implementation of corrections to the existing design or process.
- High proficiency in interpreting and explaining complex technical information.
- Adaptable to changes to work priorities and design decisions.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
- Demonstrated ability to work effectively both within a collaborative team setting, and independently.
- Legal authorization to work in the U.S. is required.
- Must be willing to work out of an office located in Niskayuna, NY.
