Offer Description

The European Synchrotron, the ESRF, is an international research centre based in Grenoble, France.

Through its innovative engineering, pioneering scientific vision and a strong commitment from its 700 staff members, the ESRF is recognised as one of the top research facilities worldwide. Its particle accelerator produces intense X-ray beams that are used by thousands of scientists each year for experiments in diverse fields such as biology, medicine, environmental sciences, cultural heritage, materials science, and physics.

Supported by 21 countries, the ESRF is an equal opportunity employer and encourages diversity.

 

As a Software Engineer, your mission is to lead the implementation of advanced data analysis protocols and user-friendly software, facilitating the seamless integration of 3DXRD and Dark Field X-ray Microscopy (DFXM) at the ID03 beamline. In this role, you will closely collaborate with the ESRF Data Analysis Unit, contributing to the development of data analysis tools within the framework of the EU-funded AddMorePower project.

 

A dedicated and optimized hard x-ray microscope is deployed at ESRF’s ID03 beamline. Uniquely, this innovative methodology empowers in-situ 3D mapping of domains, phases, and stresses within thick polycrystalline specimens, achieving an unprecedented 100 nm scale. This technique at ID03 is compatible with coarser grain mapping techniques such as 3DXRD and Diffraction Contrast Tomography. Your tasks encompass:

 

·         Establishing Workflow: Design and establish a workflow for multi-scale analysis, efficiently combining DFXM with larger length scale techniques like 3DXRD.

·         Implementing Codes: Proficiently implement 3D reconstruction codes for section tomography and topo-tomo datasets, ensuring accuracy and reliability in data processing.

·         Developing Analysis Tools: Create sophisticated analysis and visualization tools for strain and mosaicity datasets, extracting essential parameters from both 3D and 4D datasets.

 

Your role as a Software Engineer within this pioneering project will play a key part in advancing materials science, offering a unique opportunity to contribute to transformative research at the intersection of technology and scientific exploration in collaboration with a large number of European institutions including Infineon, Fraunhofer and KAI.
