Preferred qualifications include a Professional Engineer license or advanced degree, experience in radiation environments, knowledge of manufacturing processes (welding, brazing, machining), experience with kinematics, linear motion stages, robotics, pneumatics, metrology, and precision measurement, working knowledge of high-vacuum systems, proficiency in GD&T and P&IDs per ASME standards, and quality program experience.
Work is conducted in both office and assembly/production floor environments. You must be able to lift up to 50 pounds, sit for extended periods, be comfortable as a radiation worker, and perform hands-on assembly work. Occasional travel for site visits, vendor meetings, and conferences is required.
