Solsystemets fysik och rymdteknik

Applications are invited for a Research Engineer position for 8 months working on system design of a plasma instrument for the ESA's M-class candidate mission to Mars, M-MATISSE.

The selected candidate will join the research group Solar System Physics and Space Technology (SSPT) at the Swedish Institute of Space Physics (IRF) in Kiruna. The expected start time is October 1, 2024. Due to short employment time, time for introduction is very limited.

The SSPT group at IRF carries research in the field of space plasma by developing space plasma instruments for lunar and planetary missions, analyzing data obtained from those missions, and performing computer simulations to explore the space environment around solar system bodies.

Tasks

The tasks include, but not limited to:

1. Instrument simulation and conceptual design Calibration facility conceptual design including

2. Literature review and market survey. 

Qualifications 

The applicant is expected to have an MSc (or comparable academic degree) in experimental physics at the time of employment. Experience with laboratory work and ion optics simulations are strong merit.
