FW: Cryogenic and Cleanroom Expert Positions at Pitt
by Turner, Jaime J 01 Apr '19

01 Apr '19

At the University of Pittsburgh we are looking for two Facilities Directors, one for our cleanroom - and one for a newly created cryogenic facility which combines a liquefier+recovery and 10+ dilution refrigerators situated in several labs. I would be grateful if you brought to my attention any good candidates for these positions, perhaps a student or a postdoc who is great with equipment and processes? You can also share with them the search postings below. These positions are in the rank of Research Assistant Professor. While the primary responsibility is for the facility, it is also possible to stay involved in research in collaboration with groups at Pitt.
