DESY, with more than 3000 employees at its two locations in Hamburg and Zeuthen, is one of the world's leading research centres. Its research focuses on decoding the structure and function of matter, from the smallest particles of the universe to the building blocks of life. In this way, DESY contributes to solving the major questions and urgent challenges facing science, society and industry. With its ultramodern research infrastructure, its interdisciplinary research platforms and its international networks, DESY offers a highly attractive working environment in the fields of science, technology and administration as well as for the education of highly qualified young scientists.

The Photo Injector Test Facility at DESY in Zeuthen (PITZ, near Berlin) focuses on the development of high brightness electron sources for Free Electron Lasers (FELs) such as FLASH and the European XFEL as well as on applications of high brightness beams like the world’s first high-power, single-pass THz‑FEL and unique research capabilities for tumor radiotherapy and radiation biology. We are looking for a senior scientist with strong theoretical and experimental background in accelerators, who will play a leading role in the further development of the research fields together with local and international cooperation partners.

About your role:

• Work in one of the leading groups developing and testing photo injectors and their applications in an international team of physicists and engineers (e.g. development of high brightness electron sources, THz‑FEL, radiation biology)
• Take responsibility in defining, coordinating, performing, and analyzing the scientific programs at PITZ
• Be in charge of simulation studies, data taking and analysis procedures, as well as diagnostics hardware components
• Develop innovative concepts, techniques and applications for PITZ and other accelerator facilities
• Participate in shift operation and on-call service at PITZ for accelerator R&D and their applications
