About Our Team:
The Photovoltaics and Materials Technology (PMT) department develops and validates materials and technologies that improve the performance, reliability, and safety of photovoltaic systems for energy and national security applications. Sandia focuses on emerging PV technologies and collaborates with dozens of companies and universities to develop and test new module architectures, tracking systems, integrated power electronics, encapsulants, and specialized coatings. We also develop materials, such as thermally stable polymers, electrodes, and electrolytes for advanced batteries and other applications. Our team applies HPC modeling and advanced indoor and outdoor testing capabilities to evaluate and predict system performance, degradation, and failure mechanisms.
What Your Job Will Be Like:
We are seeking an experienced electromechanical technologist to join our team and support photovoltaic (PV) power systems research. We are looking for 2 candidates with experience in mechanical assembly, common hand tools, and electrical and electronics work. The work environment requires the ability to lift and manually position large, bulky test devices onto characterization tools, either individually or as part of a team. The position also requires periodic work outdoors in all seasons for most of the workday. Familiarity with electrical lock-out/tag-out (LOTO), forklift operations, and use of machine shop equipment is desired.
On any given day, you may be called on to:
• Be responsible for operating indoor PV characterization tools.
• Support outdoor PV system installation, instrumentation, and maintenance.
• Work in both laboratory and outdoor settings.
• Monitor experiments, including making and recording observations in support of the development and testing of PV systems.
• Support documentation efforts, including preparing information for scientific and engineering reports and publications.
Requirements:
• Associate's degree in electronics, electro-mechanical technologies, engineering or other relevant technical field; or equivalent combination of education and experience that demonstrates the knowledge, skills, and abilities to perform the duties of the job.
• Demonstrated ability to work in a laboratory setting, performing tasks such as test setup, equipment operation, and data collection and storage.
• Demonstrated experience with mechanical assembly and common hand tools.
• Demonstrated experience with Data Acquisition Systems (DAS), laboratory instrumentation and basic laboratory data management.
• Ability to obtain and maintain a DOE L-level security clearance.
• Must be a U.S. citizen.
• Successful drug screening.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Bachelor's degree in electronics, electromechanical technologies, engineering, or other relevant field.
• Demonstrated experience with DC measurement and data acquisition systems.
• Ability to read mechanical drawings, electrical schematics and engineering specifications.
• Demonstrated ability to adapt to various experimental environments and learn quickly.
• Demonstrated ability to interface with multiple engineers and scientists, and to perform work with a sense of urgency and focus on quality.
• Experience with control systems, including low-voltage/low-current measurement systems and motor controls.
• Experience with light shop equipment (bench grinders, band saws and drill presses) and basic portable power tools.
• Experience with electrical Lockout/Tagout (LOTO), including procedures applied to systems with multiple sources of energy.
• Experience with PV systems and components.
• Programming and control of DAS systems using Labview, Python, or embedded languages.
• Experience with data processing, analysis and reporting.
Location/Work Arrangement:
• Due to the nature of the work, the selected candidate must be able to work onsite.
• Schedule is full-time, Monday – Friday 40-hour week.
• This position is a fully onsite position at Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Benefits:
BGS offers a competitive total compensation package to eligible employees. Benefits include Health, Dental, Vision, Life Insurance, Paid Vacation, 401K, Long and Short-Term Disability.
