The candidate will also contribute to software development as needed for configuration control, data acquisition, processing, analysis, integration with modeling tools and data archiving.

The candidate is expected to have excellent time management skills for test configuration planning, experiment execution, disciplined documentation techniques and standard lab record keeping, as well as timeliness in data reduction, reporting of raw experimental or data reduction/analysis results.
