Developer/ PostDoc for Particle Detector Systems (f/m/d)
You will have a leading role in our development team for state of the art detector systems for large scale experiments in particle and nuclear physics.

The Excellence Cluster ‘ORIGINS: From the origins of the Universe to the first building blocks of life‘ (www.origins-cluster.de) started in January 2019 and is funded within the framework of the Excellence Strategy of the German Research Foundation (DFG). The interdisciplinary research project is a cooperation of the Ludwig-Maximilians- Universität (LMU) and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) as well as the Max Planck Institutes for Astrophysics (MPA), Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE), Physics (MPP), Plasma Physics (IPP) and Biochemistry (MPIB), the European Southern Observatory (ESO) and the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre (LRZ), sourcing state of the art experiments in a wide field of applications. Innovative detector solutions, modern tools of digitization, data handling and code development are key components for the success.
