Dear Oliver.

</div>
<div class=""> A couple of comments:</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Jason Chak moved back to the UCN group. He is PEng and know very well to work with</div>
<div class="">physicists. He got PEng while working in the UCN group, and thus knows how to get PEng</div>
<div class="">while working at TRIUMF. If Jason could move to SciTech, it would be fantastic. There is</div>
<div class="">also a possibility for an engineer to get PEng by getting support from other groups, e.g.</div>
<div class="">working at the design office but participating in the experimental project as Jason did.</div>
<div class="">
<div><br class="">
</div>
<div>For the replacement of Chapman’s position, engineer enthusiastic to new techniques,</div>
<div>this would be an excellent opportunity for detector-oriented postdocs. There potentially </div>
<div>many good candidates if the position is open for postdocs, I believe. Having physics</div>
<div>knowledge would also be very good. There is also a chance to find someone with</div>
<div>a cryogenic background.</div>

Following our discussion in the last Particle Physics Meeting on the SciTech replacement hire following Robert Henderson’s departure, Nigel kindly provided context of the current plan/thinking for Philip Lu’s replacement. See message below. Initially I thought
we could discuss it during our March meeting until I noticed the short timeline so apologies for sending this only now. Feedback welcome, ideally by early next week.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

Department Heads<br class="">
<br class="">
As you know, Philip Lu has been promoted into Robert Henderson's<br class="">
position as Detectors Group Head.<br class="">
<br class="">
We are now moving forward with replacing him.<br class="">
<br class="">
Our thinking is this:<br class="">
<br class="">
We want someone to cover the detector engineering Philip did. At the<br class="">
same time we want to use the opportunity to plug some gaps we have in<br class="">
SciTech.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br class="">
<br class="">
The most glaring gap is that we do engineering, but without a<br class="">
PEng. This means for any safety or major work we have to find an<br class="">
external PEng to sign off and direct our work. It also makes it unclear<br class="">
if we can have EIT (Engineers in Training) since such people "must work<br class="">
directly under the supervision of a PEng".<br class="">
<br class="">
Secondly we are missing cryogenics expertise. Bit of a long shot to<br class="">
kill two birds with one stone, but we mention cryogenics as a plus.<br class="">
<br class="">
We also have to plan for Chapman's succession. We are unlikely to<br class="">
succeed with recruiting a scintillator shop manager with Chapman's<br class="">
experience and ability to take on new techniques, visiting companies,<br class="">
trade shows etc. figuring it all out. So we will emphasize we want an<br class="">
engineer who remains open and enthusiastic to new techniques.<br class="">
<br class="">
Please discuss within your departments, feel free to forward to others,<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br class="">
give me feedback rapidly on these plans. We would like to start<br class="">
advertising within the next week or so.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><br class="">
