Job Description

Are you an enthusiastic Superconducting Magnet Engineer interested in the development, manufacturing, and operation of superconducting accelerator magnets? Come and join a great team pushing the limits of superconducting accelerator magnets, to shape the future of the largest accelerator in the world.

The Magnets, Superconductors and Cryostats (MSC) group of the Technology Department (TE), has the mandate to design, construct, and measure the superconducting and normal conducting magnets for the CERN accelerator complex; integrate them in the CERN machines; design the related cryostats and perform the magnet quality control. The group also provides support to the operation of accelerators for matters related to magnets and other superconducting devices (ex. current leads).

The Large Magnet Facility Section (LMF) is responsible for the construction, maintenance, and support of the accelerator's superconducting magnets. Additionally, the TE-MSC-LMF section is responsible for defining, producing, and maintaining busbars, electrical connections, and interconnections. The section also manages the related storage and logistics, ensuring efficient operation and support for the LHC.

Key Responsibilities
  • Take over the responsibility for the technical coordination of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) cryo-magnets, in particular in view of the Long Shutdown 3 and the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) upgrade, covering deinstallation, consolidation, installation activities, including related quality controls as well as addressing ad-hoc requests related to cryo-magnets and their spare components.
  • Lead the development of low-temperature superconducting magnet technologies, through the design and construction of specific magnets, with a focus on producing cost-effective, full-length accelerator prototypes for system integration and eventually to prepare for industrialization.
  • Develop tools and solutions for low-temperature superconducting magnets, in line with the experience developed for LHC and HL-LHC Nb-Ti and Nb3Sn magnets, especially for aspects related to coil fabrication and mechanical assembly.
Requirements
  • Master's degree or PhD or equivalent relevant experience in the field of Superconducting Magnets, Applied Physics, Electro-mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Experience:
    • Proven experience in the fabrication and assembly of Nb-Ti magnets, including collaring.
    • Proven experience in the design and construction of Nb3Sn high-field accelerator magnets.
    • Experience in implementing manufacturing and control procedures to ensure high-quality standards throughout production of superconducting magnets.
    • Experience in the development of first-of-a-kind systems, requiring design work and the construction of mock-ups and dedicated tooling.
  • Technical competencies:
    • Design and modelling of superconducting magnets
    • Assembly of mechanical structures and equipment
    • Construction, test, and installation of superconducting magnets and systems
    • Quality management
  • Behavioural competencies:
    • Demonstrating Accountability:
      • Working conscientiously and reliably; delivering on promises,
      • Taking responsibility for own actions and decisions,
    • Communicating Effectively:
      • Expressing opinions, ideas, and suggestions with conviction and in a logical/structured manner; keeping to the point 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,
    • Building Relationships:
      • Showing courtesy and consideration in dealings with others. Showing a sincere interest in the concerns and perspectives of others,
      • Understanding how individual differences bring added value to the Organization; promoting complementarities,
    • Demonstrating Flexibility:
      • Adapting quickly and resourcefully to shifting priorities and requirements,
      • Readily accepting new tasks or work/projects,
      • Adapting quickly and resourcefully to shifting priorities and requirements
    • Learning and Sharing Knowledge:
      • Sharing knowledge and expertise freely and willingly with others; coaching others to ensure knowledge transfer,
      • Proposing ways to improve or streamline existing procedures, processes, and methodologies.
    Language Skills

Spoken and written English: ability to understand and speak in professional contexts. Ability to draw up technical specifications and/or scientific reports and to make oral presentations.

Ability to understand and speak, or willingness to learn and improve French.
