Bridge12 has an open position for a Scientist - Magnetic Resonance.
Open Position: Scientist - Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
Bridge12 is a small business focused on the development of cutting-edge microwave and terahertz (THz) instrumentation for use in scientific research such as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) and Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) spectroscopy. The company has a worldwide customer base and conducts groundbreaking research on applications of microwave/THz radiation in novel fields, often in collaboration with leading academic institutes.
Position Overview
As a scientist at Bridge12, you will work on multidisciplinary projects covering large aspects of magnetic resonance, instrumentation design, development of prototypes and conduct research. The position requires creativity in a wide range of areas of magnetic resonance spectroscopy including NMR and EPR spectroscopy, imaging, and instrument development. We are looking for a highly motivated, highly organized individual who enjoys an innovative, interdisciplinary environment and the challenges that come with the manufacturing of high-tech, scientific instrumentation. You will work out of the Bridge12 facilities in Framingham, MA with only occasional travel (conferences, tradeshows etc.).
Responsibilities
- Instrument development with a strong focus on Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (NMR, EPR, DNP, MRI). This includes the electrical and mechanical design and fabrication of NMR, EPR and DNP probes. Design of passive microwave/THz components (e.g. transmission lines, mirrors, bends, quasi-optical components) and the design of RF circuits
- Design and conduct research to support product development
Required Skills & Experience
- In-depth understanding of the principles of magnetic resonance spectroscopy with a strong emphasis on NMR and EPR spectroscopy
- Experience in performing solution-state and solid-state NMR experiments, preferably on an Agilent/Varian spectrometer running VnmrJ
- Experience in performing electromagnetic simulations for RF and microwave/THz circuits using finite element analysis tools (e.g. Ansys HFSS and Maxwell)
- In-depth knowledge of LabVIEW and Matlab
- Experience with 3D CAD tools for mechanical design such as Autodesk Inventor
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills and good teamwork ethics
- Printed Circuit Board design and prototyping (advantage)
- Experience in designing cryogenic instrumentation (advantage)
Qualification: Ph.D. degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, physical chemistry, physics or equivalent or Master degree and at least 3 years of professional experience.
