About Us
Diamond Light Source is the UKs national synchrotron science facility. By accelerating electrons to near light-speed, Diamond generates brilliant beams of light from infra-red to X-rays which are used for academic and industry research and development across a range of scientific disciplines including structural biology, physics, chemistry, materials science, engineering, earth and environmental sciences.
Software helps to enable the world-leading science performed at Diamond. Our software systems facilitate operations at all levels, including the low-level control of synchrotron and beamline hardware, the planning, execution and monitor of experiments, data archiving and retrieval, data processing and visualisation, the application for beamtime, and capture of remote experiment plans and samples. Our software engineers work alongside our scientists to develop innovative and robust solutions to keep Diamond at the forefront of scientific research.
About the Role
We now have an opportunity to recruit two Software Engineers in the Data Acquisition Core Team, working at the heart of the redevelopment of the Scientific Software Stack used to run experiments on all Diamonds beamlines and instruments. Working collaboratively with other software and support teams as well as beamline scientists, this role is fundamental to the development of the updated Software Platform that will be ...
