Context:
SPINTEC opens a R&D Engineer position for developing magnetic multilayer stacks on a new fully automated ultra-high vacuum sputtering tool for 100 mm wafers, developed in-house. The work will be carried out within the “Materials” team and in a close collaboration with researchers, PhDs and postdoctoral fellows.

Position:

The mission will consist in:

• discussing with the researchers about their needs on materials development,
• depositing multi-layered stacks and perform basic characterisations (Vibrating Sample Magnetometry, Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect, Atomic Force Microscopy, X Ray Reflectometry…),
• discussing on the obtained results and properties,
• iterate on the stack composition and deposition parameters to obtain the sought-after characteristics,
• improving the setup (e.g. simplify maintenance operations, tweak the user interface, introduce new functionalities, …).

The candidate should have a strong background in research on material science and, in particular, knowledge of:

• magnetic materials engineering,
• thin-film magnetic phenomena,
• magnetron sputtering deposition technique,
• vacuum phenomena,
• reading, writing and speaking of English: at least B2 CEFR level
• programming in Python language.

The required skills are:
• handling of materials and samples with cleanliness and purity constrains,
• analysis and interpretation of physical characterization results,
• reading and writing reports and articles, oral presentation of results,
• team working and ability to communicate in a diversely skilled laboratory.
