**Company Description**
**Job Description** Introduction**

Are you an enthusiastic mechanical technician interested in joining a team that develops and manufactures high-precision detectors for physics experiments? Take part

You will join:
The Detector Technology group in the Experimental Physics department (EP-DT) participates in the development, construction and operation of particle detectors for experiments at CERN. This comprises LHC detector consolidation and upgrade projects as well as non-LHC activities. We operate a number of mechanical workshops, in which we develop prototype components and perform small volume series production. The group hosts as well a laboratory for Composite materials, mainly for the construction of light-weight structures for tracking detectors.

**Functions**

As a mechanical technician in the Detector Technology group’s Construction and Operation section (EP-DT-CO) your functions will include:

- Production of high-precision parts in composite materials,
- Manufacturing of mechanical parts on conventional and CNC machines, as well as 3D printers,
- Preparation of simple 3D models for production of mechanical parts,
- Participation to the development of new tooling and assembly procedures,
- Participation to the assembly of mechanical structures and the integration of complex detector systems,
- Performing dimensional metrology and material characterisation, taking part in the analysis of test results and the implementation of corrective measures.

**Qualifications**
Higher technical diploma or equivalent relevant experience in the field of **mechanics **or a related field.

**Experience**:

- Proven experience in machining of precise parts,
- Proven experience in use of CAD (2D and 3D) and CAM software (preferably WORKNC),
- Good understanding of mechanical drawings and geometric tolerancing,
- Experience in precision mechanics adjustment and assembly.

The following experience would be an advantage:

- Experience in programming and using computer numerical controlled machines (CNC)
- Hands-on experience in manufacturing fibre-reinforced composite materials
- Experience in mechanical and thermal testing of lightweight composite structures

**Technical competencies**:

- Manufacturing of mechanical parts,
- Production of 2D drawings and 3D models,
- Programming and use of CNC machine-tools and machining centres,
- Precision assembly of mechanical structures and equipment.

**Behavioural competencies**:

- Achieving Results:

- Delivering high quality work on time and fulfilling expectations
- Demonstrating Flexibility:

- Adapting quickly and resourcefully to shifting priorities and requirements
- Working in Teams:

- Building and maintaining constructive and effective work relationships
- Managing Self:

- Working well autonomously; taking on activities and tasks without prompting,
- Using time efficiently and effectively
- Solving Problems:

- Adopting a pragmatic approach; understanding the value of adopting generic rather than gold -plated technical solutions

**Language skills**:
Spoken and written English or French: knowledge of the other language would be an asset, or an undertaking to acquire it rapidly.
**Additional Information** Eligibility and closing date**:
**Employment Conditions**

These functions require:

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

In the future these functions may require, depending on the needs of the Organisation:

- Shift work,
- Work in radiation controlled areas.
