As a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) national laboratory, Argonne is committed to delivering substantive impacts to U.S. prosperity, competitiveness, and security through transformative science and technology from discovery to technology development to application. Argonne operates the Advanced Photon Source as a DOE sponsored national user facility which utilizes x-rays to provide world leading scientific and engineering tools to study materials in a wide variety of disciplines. Argonne National Laboratory seeks a Director for the APS Engineering Support Division (AES) at the Advanced Photon Source (APS). The APS is a world-leading hard X-ray synchrotron light source within Argonne's Photon Sciences Directorate and is funded by the Department of Energy's Office of Science, Basic Energy Sciences. With over 70 experimental facilities, the APS attracts more than 5,000 researchers annually across diverse scientific disciplines, contributing to over 40,000 publications and numerous societal advancements. The APS recently completed an $815M transformative upgrade to a fourth-generation storage ring, enhancing its X-ray capabilities with unmatched brightness, including new beamlines, and upgrades to existing beamlines. This upgrade further strengthens its role in driving scientific discovery and supporting U.S. economic competitiveness. The new storage ring has been installed and was commissioned in 2024. It is now operational for user science and is the most advanced synchrotron in the world with a record electron emittance of 42pm.rad. These upgrades will be completed at the end of the fiscal year when 7 feature x-ray beamlines designed to fully exploit the characteristics of the upgraded storage ring are brought into operations. These beamlines will add to the existing suite of beamlines that brings the total number of beamlines to over 70. APS is also preparing several significant projects to expand X-ray capabilities in the next 5 years. Argonne is currently inviting applications for the position of Director of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) Engineering Support Division (AES). The core mission of AES is to provide state-of-the-art engineering, computing and facility infrastructure to enable world-leading performance of the APS in a safe environment. The AES division is instrumental in providing engineering to develop and execute the APS-U upgrade, and new projects currently being initiated. AES plays a central role in supporting accelerator and x-ray beamline operations of the new APS. In addition, AES leverages the engineering expertise to collaborate with other U.S. light sources in the development of new technologies. The AES Division is comprised of ~110 full-time employees and has an annual budget of around $36M. Argonne is seeking an innovative, strategic, and energetic individual who can provide leadership to AES.
