Electronics Engineer for Motion Control
Vor 4 Tagen
Job Description
Your responsibilities
Motion control applications at CERN are often characterised by challenging requirements, such as high positioning precision (in the order of 1 ppm) in extremely radioactive environment (i.e. Total Ionizing Dose up to 30 MGray) and axes synchronization below one ms. These demanding specifications are particularly relevant for the Beam Intercepting Devices (BIDs), such as thecollimators.
A new, high performance field Sensors Acquisition and Motion Control framework () is currently under development for the renovation of the LHC collimators' control system based on a PXIe platform to address these challenges.
The project team is part of:
As an Electronics Engineer working in the SAMbuCa project you will:
Develop a generic, reusable HDL module that supports the core features of the SPEXI7U, to be used by all applications that will be based on that board; Implement a reference design for the SPEXI7U, using the above HDL module; Migrate the existing motion control application (combination of SPEXI7U + FMC-MFE) to also use the above HDL module for the common SPEXI7U features; Collaborate with your colleagues in the hardware/software co-design process, where HDL, firmware for the MPSoC CPUs, Linux device drivers and host applications are developed and reviewed together; Develop automated tests, to be run on real hardware during Continuous Integration (CI).Your profile
Skills and/or knowledge
Required skills & experience:
Architecture of Xilinx MPSoC; FPGA design and simulation (VHDL and Verilog) using Vivado; Bare-metal programming in C using Xilinx Vitis; Git-based development; Hardware debugging and testing using laboratory instrumentation.Advantageous skills & experience:
Electronic circuit design; Motion control o TCL scripting for Xilinx Vivado and Vitis; GitLab based code reviews, merge requests and CI pipelines; Python and PyTest o Linux device drivers:Language skills:
Fluent in English, the ability to work in French would be an advantage.Eligibility criteria:
You are a national of a . You have a professional background in Electronics Engineer for Motion Control (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.

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on
We are on a Quest. A Journey into discovery like no other. Bring your expertise to our unique work and develop your knowledge and skills at pace. Join world-class subject matter experts on unique projects, in a Quest for greater knowledge and deeper understanding.
