We are seeking personnel for the Electronics Engineer, who will work in the Turkish Accelerator and Radiation Laboratory (TARLA), which is under construction in Ankara University Gölbaşı Campus, with the aim of creating and increasing the capacity to produce high technology by providing accelerator-based research opportunities to basic, applied and engineering research units.

Essential:

  • Minimum BS degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline (Applied Physics)
  • Experience with engineering CAD/software packages such as Mentor Graphics, Altium, and/or engineering analysis/model/simulation programs (ADS, HFSS, Matlab, Multisim etc.) is preferred;
  • Experience with or knowledge of digital design (FPGA), and or PLCs is preferred;
  • Programing experience in one of the following languages C, C++, JAVA, and or Python is desired;
  • The applicant must have good team and communication skills and be able to work in multidisciplinary groups (engineers, technicians, programmers, and physicists) to solve technical problems. Strong background in applied physics and a curious mind highly desired;
  • The position is “highly hands on” and will require the individual to spend approximately 60% of his/her time in the laboratory and 40% at his/her desk/computer;
  • The ability to apply critical thinking, operational principles, and knowledge of electronics and electrical theory to accomplish engineering design tasks is required.
