Immersive Research Experience

CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, invites applications for a highly skilled Physicist to join its team of scientists and engineers working on the development of magnet systems for the International Muon Collider Collaboration's Muon Collider project.

As a leading research organization, CERN seeks to push the boundaries of human knowledge and understanding of the universe. The successful candidate will play a vital role in the conceptual design of a Muon Collider aimed at exploring the fundamental properties of particles at the energy frontier.

The ideal candidate will possess a deep understanding of electromagnetics, thermodynamics, and superconductivity, with a strong background in superconducting magnet technology, especially high-temperature superconductors. Fluency in English is required, and proficiency in French is an asset.

The selected candidate will contribute to the implementation of planned activities, including quench detection studies, manufacturing, and testing of sub-scale pancakes and solenoids. They will also participate in the design of various high-temperature superconductor solenoids for the Muon Collider project.

About the Position

This is a 24-month contract, with the possibility of extension up to 36 months. The position involves working 40 hours per week, with flexibility to work nights, Sundays, and official holidays as needed.

What We Offer

CERN offers a competitive salary, ranging between 6212 and 6828 Swiss Francs per month, net of tax. The Organization also provides comprehensive health insurance, membership in the CERN Pension Fund, and opportunities for professional development and training.

CERN is an equal opportunities employer and welcomes applications from diverse candidates worldwide.
