  • Design firmware for microcontrollers, particularly the TEXAS instrument family, with knowledge of mechatronics systems including motor controls (steppers, DC brushed motors) and signal filtering;
  • Program electronics components firmware and microcrontrollers for motion controls and signal acquisition.

Your profile

Skills and/or knowledge

Required:

  • Experience with motion control;
  • Demonstrated experience programming in C with knowledge of good practises for architecture design;
  • Experience with hardware functional testing and software unit testing;
  • Experience in controlling complex mechatronic systems.

Advantageous:

  • Experience with other testing (PTS, thermal) desirable;
  • Knowledge of power electronics would be beneficial.

Language skills:

  • Fluent in English, the ability to work in French would be an advantage.

Eligibility criteria:

About us

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

We are on a Quest. A Journey into discovery like no other. Bring your expertise to our unique work and develop your knowledge and skills at pace. Join world-class subject matter experts on unique projects, in a Quest for greater knowledge and deeper understanding.
