Job description:
Open Date: 03/24/2017
Close Date: 04/24/2017
Description
The Fermilab Particle Physics Division seeks highly motivated application physicist candidates to join its Electrical Engineering Department. The selected candidate will be assigned to the ASIC Test Group within the Electrical Engineering Department.
The selected candidate will be expected to work closely with ASIC engineers, attend meetings, participate in ASIC design architecture decisions, as well as developing a deep understanding of the full functionality of ASICs which are being designed. The majority of the ASICs are developed for the operation of experimental detectors for high-energy physics, basic sciences and particle astrophysics research. Under the supervision of more experienced physicists and engineers, the candidate will participate in efforts involving the development of ASIC test procedures, guide and participate in general electrical design, FPGA programming, printed circuit board schematic design and LabView programming.
Respects, understands and values individual differences that embody the principles of diversity.
Abide by all environment, safety, and health regulations.
Responsibilities
Qualifications and Essential Job Functions
Application Instructions
Interested candidates should submit via Academic Jobs Online: 1) Curriculum Vitae, 2) Publication List, 3) Research Statement, and 4) Three or More Reference Letters (to be submitted by the reference writers at the AJO site).

For general information about this position, please contact Dr. Vadim Rusu via email at vrusu@fnal.gov.
Physical Activity and Work Conditions
HUMAN FACTORS: Mental Concentration, Repetitive Motion, Sitting, Standing, Tight Work Schedule, and Visually Demanding
PHYSICAL FACTORS: High Voltage and Ionizing Radiation
CHEMICAL FACTORS: Epoxies
There is no legal requirement that Fermilab sponsor an employee for U.S. permanent residence. As a result, Fermilab will make the decision to sponsor an employee on a case-by-case basis. Fermilab will consider the following factors, among others, when determining whether to sponsor an employee for U.S. permanent residence: performance, length of service, long-term need for the position, and cost.
Diverse people. Diverse jobs. Great science.
Fermilab is America’s particle physics and accelerator laboratory.
Fermilab is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Minorities/Women/Disabled/Veterans are encouraged to apply.
