The experimental high-energy physics (HEP) group at the University of Oklahoma (OU) invites applications for a Dodge Family Research Scientist position on the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The analysis activities of the group are currently focused on studies of the Higgs boson and top quark, as well as searches for extended Higgs sectors and exotic new physics. The group has extensive experience in silicon strip and pixel detector technology and is participating in the Phase II upgrade of the ATLAS silicon pixel detector. The HEP group operates a clean room and has access to the departmental machine shop and electronics lab. In addition, OU hosts one of the ATLAS tier 2 computing centers in the US. The start date for the appointment is flexible, with appointments starting as early as Sept. 15, 2022. The position will be based in Norman, Oklahoma. Qualified applicants in all areas of experimental high-energy physics are encouraged to apply. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in Physics or a related area and at least two years of postdoctoral research experience, including substantial hardware contributions. Applications, consisting of a cover letter (indicating a potential start date), CV (including publications), and a statement of research interests (up to three pages) should be submitted electronically (as a single pdf file) to pgutierrez@ou.edu, with the subject line “Dodge Family Research Scientist: ATLAS Experiment.” Applicants should also arrange to have 3 letters of reference sent on their behalf directly to the same address. Applications received by August 15, 2022 will receive full consideration. Review of applications will continue until the position is filled. We are committed to building a culturally diverse educational environment and strongly encourage members from underrepresented minority groups and women to apply.
