The opportunity

The SKA Observatory (SKAO) is a next-generation radio astronomy facility that will revolutionise our understanding of the Universe and the laws of fundamental physics.
Enabled by cutting-edge technology, it promises to have a major impact on society, in science and beyond.

The position will initially sit within the AIV Team to support integration and verification during construction but then transition to operations support within the SKA-Low Telescope team.

  • Contributing to the development and improvement of user guides, training documentation and troubleshooting guides.
  • Facilitating procurement of network and computing components and other tools to support the installation and maintenance activities.
  • Attending after hours breakdowns and working flexible hours as required.
  • Other duties as directed.
