• ORGANIZATION OVERVIEW
• The Discovery Technologies Directorate delivers cross-cutting technologies that support a range of scientific and national needs. The directorate includes the Accelerator Science & Technology Department, the Instrumentation Department, the Superconducting Magnet Division (SMD), and the being-formed Quantum Information Science and Technology and Microelectronics Departments.The Directorate develops transformative technology advances that will form the basis of next-generation particle sources and accelerators, detectors, magnets, and unique instruments and enables the deployment of new technologies for basic science, industry, medicine, and security applications.The mission of SMD is to develop, construct and test state-of-the-art superconducting magnets for application in accelerators and detectors and to maintain and further develop the expertise and facilities in specialized high technology areas essential for this work. The Division has made important contributions to the construction of many accelerator facilities around the world from the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at BNL to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN and the SuperKEKB facility at KEK. It has also built many custom experimental magnets such as alpha-g magnet for CERN. The division is currently testing magnets for the High Luminosity LHC upgrade and is developing specialized interaction region magnets for Brookhaven’s next major collider, the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC).SMD has a long history of pioneering advances in magnet design and construction. This spans development of two beams in a single magnet as utilized in the LHC rings, the common coil design for high field magnets, and the direct wind technique for constructing the superconducting corrector magnets used in the complex interaction region magnets for colliders.
• POSITION DESCRIPTION
• Brookhaven Nation Laboratory seeks a distinguished superconducting magnet expert with an international reputation in the area of superconducting magnet technology to lead the Superconducting Magnet Division. The Director of SMD will be part of the Discovery Technology Directorate leadership team and will play an integral role in supporting strategic initiatives within the Directorate and BNL more broadly. The SMD Director will have primary responsibility for efforts related to the EIC and other projects such as the Accelerator Upgrade Project for HL-LHC while maintaining and expanding a robust R&D program. The SMD Director will be responsible for continuing the development of a team of talented and innovative magnet experts that is able to deliver new technological advances and support the development of major research capabilities to support the DOE Office of Science and national needs.
• Essential Duties and Responsibilities :

• Experience working in a DOE facility, NSF facility, or major industrial development environment.
• Experience communicating with key stakeholders, clients, program sponsors, and internal staff.
• Demonstrated experience in successfully developing, implementing, and executing scientific strategy with engagement from critical stakeholders.
• Demonstrated ability to deliver scope within budget and schedule constraints that have been established by funding sources.
• Considerable appreciation for maintaining good relations with stakeholders, project participants, and external collaborators.
• Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to build collegial relationships and collaborate with all levels of staff within the Laboratory, including Senior Leadership.
• Preferred Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities :
• PhD in Physics, Engineering or related field.
• Demonstrated expertise by way of participation on an internationally recognized research program that overlaps some of the SMD core technologies and research directions.
• Experience having scope ownership on a project that leverages Earner Value Management (EVM) throughout project planning and execution, including performance management.
• Additional Information :
• Moderate domestic and foreign travel
• Pursuit of a DOE “Q” security clearance may be desirable.Brookhaven National Laboratory requires all non-badged personnel including visitors to produce a REAL-ID or REAL-ID compliant documentation to access Brookhaven National Laboratory – view more information at .
