Subject: Gemini Posting - Head of Technology Development Department


Aloha/Hola,

Gemini Observatory has an immediate opening for Head of Technology 
Development Department. The position will be based at Gemini South, La 
Serena,Chile.

Description:    Gemini Observatory is recruiting for someone to head its 
Technology Development Department (TDD). The TDD’s mission is to support 
internal and external development efforts for the observatory by 
investigating and implementing new technologies to improve our telescope, 
Adaptive Optics (AO), and instrument systems. The TDD consists of Gemini’s 
Adaptive Optics group, Detector Engineer, and scientists focused on 
maximizing the scientific productivity of Gemini’s telescope systems. The 
TDD Head is responsible for continuing to develop Gemini’s telescope and 
AO facilities to produce valuable and efficient science products for our 
user community. We are especially looking for people with AO and 
observatory operations and development management experience. The ideal 
TDD Head will be motivated by the opportunity to develop the department’s 
staff and take ownership of its mission to keep Gemini’s telescope and AO 
systems compelling for their users.

The Gemini Observatory has a rich AO program with the world-leading 
capabilities of both GPI and our multi-conjugate AO system (GeMS) at 
Gemini South, and our long history offering Altair at Gemini North. Future 
planned AO activities include improving and upgrading the Gemini North 
adaptive optics system, formed by Altair (AO bench) and its related Laser 
Guide Star facility, and implementation of several in-progress upgrades to 
GeMS, including a new laser, natural guide star wavefront sensor, and 
deformable mirror.

Requirements
Required Education/Experience/Skills/Abilities:
• Undergraduate degree in astronomy, adaptive optics, or related technical 
field required.
• Graduate degree in relevant field is required, however equivalent 
experience may substitute for an advanced degree.
• Some formal management education and training required.
• Five years of experience in managing technical groups and projects, 
preferably in an observatory or instrumentation development environment 
and preferably in AO.
• Must have knowledge of telescope systems, optics, electronics, software 
and mechanical design principles, and technologies used in adaptive optics 
(like deformable mirrors, wavefront sensors).
• Must be fluent in written and spoken English. Spanish language skills 
desired.
• Excellent communication skills (written and verbal) are essential to 
create and deliver clear and inspiring presentations and reports.
