Genf GE, Schweiz CERN Vollzeit

**Job Description** Your responsibilities**

In preparation for the ALICE detectors upgrade for LHC Run 5, the ALICE CERN Team and the Electronic Systems for Experiments (EP-ESE) group are conducting advanced R&D to develop Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) using CMOS technology. These sensors will be crucial for the tracking detection layers, meeting diverse requirements for spatial resolution, particle rate handling, and material thickness based on their radial distance from the interaction point.

As an Electronics System Designer, this role focuses on developing a flexible sensor architecture capable of meeting these needs through a unified design approach. Key tasks include optimizing architectures through modeling and stochastic analysis, supported by metadata from Monte Carlo simulations and particle propagation studies with the Geant package.

**Responsibilities**:

- Architecting the next generation of electronic systems for high-energy physics detectors.
- Developing and refining models and simulations for complex electronic architectures, ensuring accuracy and reliability.
- Defining system partitioning, analyzing trade-offs, and delivering precise device specifications.
- Implementing validation and verification procedures to ensure model-hardware alignment.
- Collaborating with interdisciplinary teams to integrate sensor architecture into the detector readout, considering power distribution, cooling, reliability, and performance.
- Contributing to ASIC implementation, including circuit design, simulation, and layout.
- Providing system-level expertise to guide roadmaps, features, and architecture choices.

You will bridge R&D with hands-on ASIC development, guiding the sensor architecture from concept to implementation for the ALICE upgrade.

**Your profile**

**Skills**:

- Experience in ASIC design, with a focus on architecture and/or system engineering.
- Advanced programming skills in C++ and Python.
- Proficiency in version control systems, particularly Git.
- Background in the design and implementation of microelectronic systems is a plus.
- Familiarity with High Energy Physics (HEP) detector architecture is a plus.
- Good communication skills, with the ability to clearly convey technical information within the team and to external collaborators.
- Detail-oriented with excellent problem-solving skills, effective time management, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
- Ability to manage multiple tasks and engage effectively with a variety of stakeholders, often outside the direct reporting hierarchy.

Eligibility criteria:

- You are a national of a CERN Member or Associate Member State.
- You have a professional background in M.Sc/PhD degree (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.

**Additional Information**

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

Working hours: 40 hours per week
