Position Description: |
The Fundamental Physics Directorate (FPD) at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC) is seeking a Research Technical Manager. The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), the flagship US high-energy physics program, will include in its near detector complex ND-LAr, a liquid argon time projector (LArTPC) detector system that is based on a novel modular design with 35 LArTPC modules. As part of the ongoing development program, a large-scale prototype system will be deployed at FNAL, while the Full-Scale Demonstrator (FSD) will integrate and operate the first full-sized prototype module at SLAC. SLAC is also responsible for the design and construction of the ND-LAr electric field delivery system and software development for the analysis of data from ND-LAr and its prototype detectors. This Research Technical Manager will bring significant expertise and experience in the design and operation of LArTPCs to manage and coordinate components of SLAC’s contributions and activities on the ND-LAr effort. In addition to SLAC scientific, technical, and engineering staff, they will coordinate with the DUNE collaboration and the DUNE-US project towards the successful delivery of these components.
