University of California, Riverside invites applications for a
career-level Academic Coordinator position in the Stable Isotope
Laboratory. The candidate will be responsible for the operation and
maintenance of the facility. We have three ThermoFisher Delta V Plus
mass spectrometers with multiple types of peripheral devices (e.g.,
Costech Elemental analyzer, GasBench II, TC-EA, GC-Isolink, and Kiel
device), which are operated by faculty, postdocs, students, and lab
assistants. The Academic Coordinator will be responsible for scheduling
instrument time, training faculty, visitors, postdocs, and graduate and
undergraduate students on sample preparation and analysis. She/he will
develop quality control standards and implement protocols for pre- and
post-analysis of samples and data.</div><div><div class="section">

II) is desirable. A willingness to learn and develop new methods and
techniques, as well as maintain well-developed ones, is considered a
plus for this position. The candidate will be expected to interact
closely with faculty and will have the opportunity for engaging in
research projects. </p>
