Your responsibilities

Are you an experienced software developer, or a scientist with a master's degree or PhD interested in the challenges offered by computing for High Energy Physics? Do you want to contribute to the software R&D at the heart of LHC data processing?

Join the EP-SFT group at CERN, responsible for developing and maintaining core software packages used by the experiments at the Large Hadron Collider, the world's largest particle accelerator. You will become a core C++ software developer in the team developing the CernVM-FileSystem (CVMFS, https://cernvm.web.cern.ch/fs).

CVMFS is a global, read-only filesystem that specializes in delivering software and helps to enable distributed scientific computing across cloud- and supercomputing sites at a global scale.

In particular, you will:

  • Improve the performance and usability of the CVMFS client and publisher
  • Work with cloud- and supercomputing facilities to make CVMFS more accessible
  • Contribute to the baseline support and maintenance tasks of the project.

Your profile

Skills

  • Experience with software version control (e.g. git) and build tooling
  • Good C++ knowledge. In particular: STL interfaces and algorithms, parallelism, thread-safety.
  • Competencies in systems and network programming (e.g. libcurl)
  • UNIX knowledge, in particular familiarity with filesystem concepts.

Optional but a plus:

  • Experience with container technologies (such as Docker)
  • Knowledge of the Go language
  • Experience with HEP experiments code, their software lifecycle and build tooling.
  • You have a professional background in STEM (or a related field) and have either:
  • a Master's degree with 2 to 6 years of post-graduation professional experience;
  • or a PhD with no more than 3 years of post-graduation professional experience.
You have never had a CERN fellow or graduate contract before.

Contract duration: 24 months, with a possible extension up to 36 months maximum.

Working hours: 40 hours per week

This position involves:

  • Work during nights, Sundays and official holidays, when required by the needs of the Organization.

Job reference: EP-SFT-2024-189-GRAP

Field of work: Software Engineering and IT

What we offer

  • A monthly stipend ranging between 6212 and 6828 Swiss Francs per month (net of tax).
  • Coverage by CERN's comprehensive health scheme (for yourself, your spouse and children), and membership of the CERN Pension Fund.
  • Depending on your individual circumstances: installation grant; family, child and infant allowances; payment of travel expenses at the beginning and end of contract.
  • 30 days of paid leave per year.
  • On-the-job and formal training at CERN as well as in-house language courses for English and/or French.
