  • Support Daily Operations: Perform regular monitoring and inspections to keep the data network at peak performance.
  • Develop Tools for Network Analysis: Create and maintain tools for network measurement and performance analysis using C and Python.
  • Collaborate and Share Expertise: Present results and collaborate within CERN and across the wider community.

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 http://home.cern.

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.
