Technical Engineer for Normal Conducting Magnets

vor 17 Stunden

Genf, Schweiz CERN Vollzeit

Company Description

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 CERN's website.

Job Description

Introduction

Exciting Opportunities for Engineers in Accelerator Magnet Technology

Are you a passionate engineer eager to contribute to the cutting-edge development and manufacturing of normal-conducting accelerator magnets? Join our dynamic team at the forefront of this innovative field

We currently have two open positions: one more focused on the Future Circular Collider (FCC) study, the other on existing CERN accelerators, transfer lines, and experimental areas. Normal-conducting magnets operate at room temperature and, with approximately 4500 units of hundreds of different types, are the backbone of the injector chain, guiding particles all the way to our flagship accelerator (the Large Hadron Collider, LHC); this same technology will be at the heart of the FCC lepton booster and collider, enabling groundbreaking advancements in particle physics.

Take this chance to shape the future of accelerator technology with us

The Magnets, Superconductors, and Cryostats (MSC) group within CERN's Technology Department (TE) has the mandate to design, construct, and test superconducting and normal conducting magnets for the accelerator complex. The group oversees the design, integration, and procurement of magnets. Additionally, it supports accelerator operations by ensuring magnet performance and maintenance.

The Normal Conducting Magnets section (NCM) is focused on the normal conducting magnets for present and future accelerators and beam lines.

Join a great team ensuring the reliable operation and the upgrade of all normal conducting magnets on the CERN accelerator complex.

Functions

As a technical engineer with expertise in electromechanical devices you will:

  • Design normal conducting magnets, ensuring they meet technical and functional requirements;
  • Follow up the procurement of normal conducting magnets, ensuring compliance with technical specifications and timelines;
  • Organise the refurbishment and upgrade activities for existing normal conducting magnets, including coordinating dedicated renovation campaigns;
  • Perform testing and ensure the installation and commissioning of normal conducting magnets;
  • Enhance the reliability of normal conducting magnets, including the hydraulic and electrical connections.

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree or equivalent relevant experience in the field of electromechanical engineering or a related field.

Experience:

  • Proven experience in the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of electromechanical systems;
  • Experience in the procurement of electromechanical systems and the follow-up of manufacturing processes;
  • Experience of implementing maintenance strategies for electromechanical systems.

Technical competencies:

  • Design of electromechanical systems;
  • Operation and maintenance of electromechanical equipment and systems;
  • Construction, test, and installation of electromechanical equipment and systems.

Behavioural competencies:

  • Demonstrating Accountability: taking responsibility for own actions and decisions, working conscientiously and reliably; delivering on promises;
  • Communicating Effectively: listening actively to others and letting others speak, delivering presentations in a structured and clear way; adjusting style and content to the audience; responding calmly and confidently to questions; utilising effective negotiation techniques to achieve long-term results acceptable to all parties involved;
  • Learning and Sharing Knowledge: proposing ways to improve or streamline existing procedures, processes, and methodologies;
  • Working in Teams: being ready to concede in the interest of the team; seeking agreement; contributing to promoting a positive atmosphere in the team through an optimistic and constructive attitude; addressing issues;
  • Demonstrating Flexibility: demonstrating a willingness to accept changing circumstances; supporting initiatives for change; readily absorbing new techniques and working practices; proposing new or improved ways of working.

Language skills:

Spoken and written English in professional contexts, with a willingness to learn French.

Eligibility and closing date:

Diversity has been an integral part of CERN's mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organization. Employing a diverse workforce is central to our success.

This vacancy will be filled as soon as possible, and applications should normally reach us no later than 22.01.2025 23.45 Geneva time.

Employment Conditions

Contract type: Limited duration contract (5 years). Subject to certain conditions, holders of limited-duration contracts may apply for an indefinite position.

Working Hours: 40 hours per week

This position involves:

  • Work in Radiation Areas.
  • A valid driving licence.
  • Work during nights, Sundays, and official holidays, when required by the needs of the Organization.
  • Stand-by duty, when required by the needs of the Organization.
  • Interventions in underground installations.
