About the role
- Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) is the site for the new Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), a one-of-a-kind nuclear physics research facility.
- It will consist of two intersecting accelerators, one producing an intense beam of electrons, the other a beam of protons or heavier atomic nuclei which are steered into collisions.
- Beyond sparking scientific discoveries in a new frontier of fundamental physics, the Electron-Ion Collider will trigger technological breakthroughs that have broad-ranging impact on human health and national challenges.
Responsibilities
- Lead cross-system integration efforts to ensure all subsystems function together as a cohesive system.
- Define, manage, and resolve interfaces between subsystems including technical, functional, and organizational interfaces.
- Develop and maintain the Systems Engineering Management Plan (SEMP) in accordance with DOE Order 413.3B
- Provide leadership and oversight for the systems engineering interface with the RF, Controls, Instrumentation, Mechanical, Magnet, Electrical, Vacuum, and Design Groups for both electron and hadron beam accelerator and storage systems.
- Develop and maintain the System Engineering Group organization and infrastructure to provide support services for the EIC project.
- Support the development and definition of detailed requirement documents, machine parameter tables, physics, engineering, technical, and functional specifications, interface control documentation, and all other project documentation.
- Ensure that the support documentation for each accelerator system and component has well defined provisions for support systems: electrical power, water cooling, HVAC, compressed air, cryogenics, controls, etc.
- Own and maintain the top-level technical requirements, ensuring allocation and traceability to all subsystems.
- Own the technical requirements baseline and ensure all changes are managed through a formal configuration control process
- Guide and develop staff with high standards for quality of work and to meet the anticipated workload requirements.
