## Description

The Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) uses a one-of-a-kind linear accelerator to deliver proton beams at 84% the speed of light to spallation neutron targets for scientific and national defense applications. Multiple beam facility upgrades are already underway at LANSCE to develop and modernize capabilities that support LANL's unique deterrence mission.

Among other responsibilities, the Target Experimental and Support Team (AOT-OPS:TESTeam) spearheads the design, development, and construction of experimental end stations aimed at understanding dynamic materials in extreme environments in support of the deterrence mission. This requires a wide range of demolition and disposal (D&D), tradecraft, and construction skills employed in hazardous environments. TESTeam seeks a hands-on, problem solving mechanical or electrical technician who thrives in a collaborative, high-impact R&D environment to support this facility development initiative.

This unique opportunity is the first of its kind at LANSCE in decades. The technician candidate selected to join TESTeam will be executing a full gamut of beamline D&D, assembly, testing, fielding, evaluation, benchmarking, and documentation efforts.

Engineered Systems Tec 3 ($66,100 - $103,600)

 * Operate cranes and forklifts.
 * D&D complex legacy systems in radiological environments.
 * Assemble, test, and field complex systems of piping, vacuum, sensors, and large diagnostics.
 * Troubleshoot mechanical hardware, sensors, and controls.
 * Produce new and update existing technical work control documentation.
 * Develop technical solutions to complex problems.
 * Independently troubleshoot mechanical, electrical, and controls systems.
 * Evaluate existing beamline devices for proper functionality.
 * Collect physics design benchmarking data to refine testing plans, simulation capability, and increase design fidelity.

Engineered Systems Tec 4 ($72,800 - $115,400)

 * Perform EST-3 duties with less oversight.
 * Plan, coordinate, and oversee D&D efforts of accelerator equipment.
 * Provide schedule development, cost estimates, and project status to the team leader.

This position will be filled at either the EST-3 or EST-4 level, depending on the skills of the selected candidate. Additional job responsibilities (outlined below) will be assigned if the candidate is hired at the higher level.
