  • Acquire a thorough knowledge of the various accelerator hardware systems, the associated controls software, and their intricate dependency, as well as the underlying accelerator physics.
  • Contribute to advancing the machine's performance through participation in machine development studies, the design and implementation of new accelerator systems, and the creation of software tools to improve accelerator control.
  • Proactively lead efforts to optimize the LHC's performance and streamline operational processes by identifying areas for improvement and driving solutions to enhance efficiency and effectiveness.

Requirements:

  • Master's degree or PhD or equivalent relevant experience in the field of physics, engineering, or a related field.
  • Hands-on experience in the commissioning, control, or operation of accelerators and their associated systems.
  • Demonstrate experience in at least three of the following areas: accelerator physics, software development using Java or Python, control systems and data analysis techniques, commissioning and operation of complex accelerator systems, and design and construction of accelerator components.

Technical Competencies:

  • Analysis and optimization of accelerator performance.
  • Knowledge of programming techniques and languages: in particular Java and Python.
  • Operation and commissioning of accelerators.
  • Knowledge of accelerator physics and its application.
  • Knowledge of complex hardware systems and their associated control software used in large-scale scientific or industrial environments.

Behavioural Competencies:

  • Solving problems: identifying, defining, and assessing problems, taking action to address them; finding the information needed to solve problems; making objective judgments based on all the facts available.
  • Achieving results: having a structured and organized approach towards work; being able to set priorities and plan tasks with results in mind; following through on new ideas and innovations; planning and implementing applications.
  • Communicating effectively: ensuring that information, procedures, and decisions are appropriately documented; demonstrating a pro-active approach to resolving differences; addressing issues of conflict constructively.
  • Working in teams: building and maintaining constructive and effective work relationships; working well in groups and readily fitting into a team; participating fully and taking an active role in team activities.
  • Demonstrating flexibility: readily absorbing new techniques and working practices; proposing new or improved ways of working; actively participating in the implementation of new processes and technologies; being willing to work on different projects simultaneously.

Language Skills:

Spoken and written English: ability to draw-up technical specifications and/or scientific reports and to make oral presentations in English; willingness to learn French.
