Research Associate In Quartz Crystal Microbalance (Qcm) Sensors

A Research Associate position is available at the University of Manchester funded by an ESA project to develop a satellite-based atomic oxygen sensor.
Under the guidance of Dr Peter Roberts, the UoM-PI for the project, this role will focus on the development of QCM-based sensing of atomic oxygen on satellites.
In this role, you will develop performance models for the sensor, design a proof-of-concept article for testing, and will support the experimental de-risking activities at the ESTEC LEOX Facility.
We are seeking candidates with experience in QCM sensing with or without knowledge of space or in-vacuum sensors.What you will get in return:Fantastic market leading Pension schemeExcellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance ProgrammeExceptional starting annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidaysAdditional paid closure over the Christmas periodLocal and national discounts at a range of major retailers
