Electronics Technician (Spare Parts Manager) (SY-EPC-OMS-2024-206-LD)
  • Contract

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 http://home.cern.

Introduction

Are you a skilled electronics technician with a focus on precision and a passion for quality? Join CERN and play a vital role in supporting the advanced technology that powers our world-class accelerators.

You will join the Accelerator Systems Department (SY), which is responsible for the beam-related technical systems of the CERN accelerators. The SY teams design, build and operate equipment systems in all CERN accelerators and are engaged in ambitious forward-looking R&D programmes.
