The Openly Published Environmental Sensing (OPEnS) Lab (open-sensing.org) invites everyone to the third annual OPEnS House on February 6, 2020 from 3-5:30 pm in Gilmore Annex room 200. Please come learn about the OPEnS Lab equipment, capabilities, and current projects. There will be a 10 minute presentation at 3:45 pm. Refreshments will be provided.

The Open-Sensing Lab is focused on developing environmental sensing projects and research. From soldering stations to 3D printers to laser cutters, our lab provides the tools necessary for students, professors, and researchers alike to develop tools used locally and worldwide by the ecological science and engineering community. If you can imagine it, we can build it!

Examples of projects being developed in the OPEnS Lab that will be demonstrated at the OPEnS House:

–  eDNA: An affordable, open-sourced, remotely deployable, fully automated, and customizable system for extraction of DNA traces from water bodies.

– Slide Sentinel: a network of nodes recording precise acceleration and relative positioning data from accelerometers and RTK GPS receivers to detect subtle changes in sensor position due to land movement within 2cm target precision.

– Smart Rock: a submersible sensor suite that monitors water depth, temperature, turbidity, pH, and salinity (EC) of a small stream over time and designed to be built by anyone with or without extensive experience in electronics.

Sincerely,

Dr. Chet Udell

Assistant Professor; OPEnS Lab Director

Portland Technology Development Failure Analysis Lab (PTD FA Lab) focuses on supporting yield improvement for next
generation Intel Chips. Lab engineers apply a full suite of capabilities to investigate and thoroughly explain
fundamental aspects of material/device interactions.
Responsibilities will include, but not be limited to:
• You will be responsible for developing metrologies and failure analysis of materials and components to support new
technologies.
• Documentation and presentation of results and progress are expected.
• Routine work includes formulating sound experiment or test strategies, troubleshooting metrologies and
methodologies, designing and integrating appropriate hardware/software, and documenting/presenting results.
• Non-standard processing and problem-solving.
• Working on new process introductions.
• Cross-train team members and work in continuous improvement projects.
• Self-motivation and pro-activeness to overcome challenges.
• High degree of intellectual curiosity and willingness to attempt new solutions.
This is an entry level position and will be compensated accordingly.

Minimum qualifications:
• 3.00 GPA or higher,research experience will be a plus.
• You must possess a minimum of Bachelor degree majoring in Physics, Material Science and Engineering, Chemical
Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Nuclear engineering, Optics, or Chemistry with focus on
hands on experimental research..
• Intel doesn’t sponsor H1B for BA level candidate
• Intel will sponsor H1B for Master level candidate.
