PARADIM is looking to add a Technician to support our user Facility. Please apply at: https://cornell.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/CornellCareerPage/job/Ithaca-Main-Campus/Technician-III---PARADIM--1-Year-Term-Position-_WDR-00029956-1

What you will do:

We are seeking a talented, thorough and efficient individual to support research involving the deposition and analysis of thin films in ultra-high vacuum working under the general direction of research scientists, supporting not only the staff of the PARADIM Thin Film facility, but users as well. Typical duties include

•Routine processing of wafers of a variety of oxide single crystals, include acid etching, furnace annealing and quality checks

•Keeping detailed, accurate records, procedures and results of processing activities and data both in notebook and computerized formats

•Maintaining the equipment in the user facility, including changing water filters and compressed gas cylinders, maintaining pumps, reconfiguring compressed gas and water lines, etc. to allow for safe, efficient work

•Monitor inventory and order supplies as needed

•Assist staff scientists with experimentation of procedures as needed

May occasionally be required to work evenings and/or weekends. This is a one year term position with the possibility of extension based on funding.

This position is full-time and is located in Ithaca, New York. This position is expected to work on the Ithaca campus.

What We Need:

Associate’s degree in science, engineering or related field and 2-5 years of wet-lab experience or the equivalent combination of education and experience (i.e. Bachelor’s degree in Materials Science & Engineering, Chemistry, Physics or related field)

Excellent hands-on skills with equipment

Detail oriented and willing to maintain high quality standards

Ability to work independently and take initiative

Knowledge of laboratory safety protocols and guidelines

Ability to keep the equipment, materials and lab organized

Ability to understand and implement processes from written protocols

Demonstrated ability to work effectively with a wide variety of students, faculty and staff

Computer Skills

Ability to lift 50 pounds

What We Prefer:

Bachelor’s Degree

Experience with CAD drawing software (e.g., SOLIDWORKS or AUTOCAD)

Experience in a cleanroom environment

Experience with wet chemistry, particularly acid etching

Experience with advanced equipment, atomic force microscopy, electron-beam evaporation, vacuum pumps

Familiarity with Cornell Systems, KFS/e-Shop.

Only applications through the Cornell System will be reviewed. Apply today: https://cornell.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/CornellCareerPage/job/Ithaca-Main-Campus/Technician-III---PARADIM--1-Year-Term-Position-_WDR-00029956-1

Zoom away to the PARADIM REU Summer Program 2020. When COVID-19 cancelled man REU programs across the country, the
PARADIM management team decided to shift gears and do what we could do to offer our 14 undergraduates a summer research experience. And here they are in our first official start-up Zoom meeting in early June.
