The IRIS PASSCAL Instrument Center at New Mexico Tech is seeking applicants to fill the position of Seismometer Specialist. The position will be filled either at an introductory level or a senior level depending on applicant’s qualifications. Responsibilities include repair and testing of broadband and intermediate seismometers, and maintenance of high-frequency geophones. User support and fieldwork are an essential part of the position.

We are seeking self-motivated individuals able to work in a multitasking environment, and comfortable interacting with the seismological community both to provide support and to help users determine the appropriate equipment to meet their scientific goals. Successful candidates are: willing to travel for up to one month to support seismic experiments in remote, international field locations; able to work well in stressful situations; and are able to work both independently and as part of a team.

The introductory position requires an associate’s degree in engineering, electronics or comparable field. Knowledge of electronics and electro-mechanical feedback systems is required. Experience with field data-collection systems is desired. The position may include international travel, so a valid passport is required.

To qualify for the senior position an applicant must have a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or 5 years of directly applicable experience. Experience repairing broadband seismometers, handling field data-collection systems, and seismological fieldwork are also required to qualify for the senior position.

Applicants should submit a resume, official college transcripts, a letter of professional interests, and the names and addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers of three references to: IRIS PASSCAL Seismometer Specialist Staff Search, c/o Human Resources, 801 Leroy Place, Brown Hall Box 013, Socorro, New Mexico 87801-4796.
