CH Geneva CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research Vollzeit

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on

In particular you will:

  • Be co-responsible for running the OpenStack based cloud deployment at CERN, ensuring appropriate operations and support to our communities;
  • Contribute to the design and development of "Software Defined Networking" components to address the needs of cloud and cloud-native applications and to strengthen the security posture of the infrastructure-as-a-service offering;
  • Engage and collaborate with the various CERN user communities throughout the organisation and the experiments, as well upstream developers and community members;
