We require a software engineer specializing in Python programming, to design an instrument controller that will operate on a RaspPi/Linux machine. We also require a user interface operating in Windows/Linux on a remote PC. The instrument controller will communicate with the UI machine over Ethernet using EPICs protocol commands. The instrument controller will conduct scans - move stepper motors, monitor limit switches, acquire analog sensor data, control amplifiers and filters etc.

This is a temporary/freelance position, and most/all of the work could be conducted remotely. D-Pace has a proof-of-principle design, but requires a Software Engineer to architect, complete and test the software. Due to partial public funding sources of the project, the applicant must be a Canadian citizen or have a business registered in Canada. All work on this project must be completed by March 31, 2020.

D-Pace is a Canadian company located in Nelson, British Columbia. We design equipment for the particle accelerator industry.
