.InstitutionALBA is the Spanish synchrotron light source, a large research infrastructure operating ten beamlines, complementary facilities, and an Electron Microscopy Center, this last in partnership with other institutions. Currently constructing multiple more beamlines, expanding the Electron Microscopy Center, and integrating advanced data analytics, it sums up a wide range of infrastructures geared toward finding solutions to societal challenges.Located in Cerdanyola del Vallès (Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain), it is funded by the Spanish Government (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación) and the Catalan Government (Generalitat de Catalunya, Departament de Recerca i Universitats).The synchrotron light produced by 3 GeV electrons is used by thousands of researchers to analyse and understand the properties and functionality of matter, spanning a wide variety of fields, such as catalytic research, health, energy production/storage, environmental research, communication technologies, or cultural heritage.Our highly motivated staff works in a multidisciplinary work environment with an atmosphere formed by lived diversity, inclusion and respect for our colleagues. One of the goals of our gender equality plan is to reach parity within the Consortium's different divisions and offices, and several actions have been taken to encourage applications from women mostly in scientific, engineer and technical job positions.Located close to Barcelona, in a natural park and well connected by car and public transportation, with excellent connectivity to the world and an employer who understands the importance of life-work balance.Facing an upgrade to ALBA II, a 4th generation facility, which will increase dramatically brightness and coherent flux,ALBA is in a phase of growth and dynamics.Being a part of the ALBA team will promote your career and will give you the opportunities to explore new territories.For more information, you can take a look on our history watching this video: TasksThe successful candidates shall work in the Projects Office Group at the Transversal Section of the Engineering Division with the following main tasks:– Mechanical design (from the conceptual design up to the detailed design) of devices/systems for synchrotron instrumentation including generation of specifications (picked up from the scientific needs), design reports and performance/acceptance test reports. The Project engineer is the responsible for the 3D files obtained as output of the design, including assemblies and FEM.It is also the responsible/spoke person in the different design review meetings.– Supervision and approval of the manufacturing documentation (2D drawings) produced by the draft-man at the transversal section.– Follow-up of the manufacturing process (requestor of purchase orders, contracts and preparation/follow-up of call for tenders if necessary). Follow-up of the in-house manufacturing.– Test and validation of the manufactured devices/systems
