About this position

DESY and the University of Hamburg, in collaboration with FNAL, are hiring for two research positions in the SHOGWAVE and SONAR projects focused on high-frequency gravitational wave detection with superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities.

The openings are in the low-level RF (LLRF) development team and sit at the intersection of RF engineering, superconductivity, and fundamental physics. The PhD project centers on further development of carrier suppression interferometer (CSI)-based techniques and their integration into the LLRF system. The postdoc role focuses on continuing the development and system-level setup of the unique LLRF system for the project.

Relevant academic keywords include low-level RF, RF/microwave engineering, control systems, FPGA, digital signal processing, experimental physics, and superconducting cavities. Applicants with backgrounds in these areas are encouraged to apply.

The post does not mention funding details or a deadline. Interested candidates should use the linked application pages for the PhD and postdoc openings. Questions can be directed to Marc Wenskat via LinkedIn message.
