Astrophysics System Performance Research Specialist
hace 2 días
AURA seeks an exceptional Astrophysics System Performance Research Specialist to join our team in La Serena, Chile or Tucson, AZ, USA. This role will play a crucial part in the continuing assessment of the project's technical and scientific performance metrics based on as-built data by building on and optimizing the project's existing tooling during further integration, verification, and eventually operation.
The successful candidate will work closely with the Project Scientist, System Scientist, Subsystem Scientists, and other project personnel on the performance evaluation of the system. Essential functions include being the main system-level point of contact for all as-built data and updating the error budget tree as commissioning evolves.
Other duties may be assigned by the supervisor. The position is expected to last through construction (concluding 2025) with the expectation to extend the position through 1-2 years of early Operations.
