European XFEL is an international non-profit company located in the Hamburg area in Germany. It operates a 3.4 km-long X‑ray laser, which produces X‑rays of unique quality for studies in physics, chemistry, the life sciences, materials research and other disciplines. The diverse scientific facilities at European XFEL enable scientists from across the globe to carry out a wide range of experimental techniques.
The EuXFEL "Strategy 2030+" identifies various development programs, which are ongoing or about to start, aiming at short- to mid-term enhancements to current capabilities and user experience. It also foresees programs, with the purpose of developing or qualifying technology for a facility upgrade during the next decade. This upgrade will bring advanced X‑ray photon delivery modes, a higher number of pulses per second on sample and attosecond X‑ray pulses, to name a few features. The data services of the facility will need to evolve alongside to accommodate and prepare for these developments. At the same time, efforts to improve the user experience (UX) of some of these systems have started.
In particular, to integrate to new hardware and procedures in EuXFEL's control system, Karabo, we are looking for a
