Geneva, Schweiz CERN Vollzeit

Job Description

Introduction

Are you a versatile mechanical designer with a passion for challenging projects in the field of particle physics experiments? Then seize this opportunity and join the LHCb design and integration office where you will contribute to future enhancements and upgrades of the LHCb detector

LHCb () is one of the four large experiments at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The detector consists of several subsystems such as a high-precision (~10 μm resolution) silicon detector operating in a secondary vacuum, a 1500-ton dipole magnet and a large-area (~ 6 m x 5 m), lightweight scintillating fibre detector, just to give a few examples. Its operation requires complex infrastructure in terms of support structures, electrical power, cooling and data acquisition.

Integration studies are pivotal to ensure that the different detector components and associated services come together as a coherent whole.

Functions

As a member of the LHCb Technical Coordination team (EP-LBO-DO section) you will collaborate closely with skilled engineers, technicians, and designers, both from CERN and from collaborating institutes.

More specifically, you will:

use CATIA V5 to prepare 3D models and 2D construction drawings (using ISO-GPS norms for dimensioning and tolerancing), perform integration studies of infrastructure and detector systems to be installed in the LHCb experimental area, carry out mechanical dimensioning of components using analytical or numerical methods, prepare technical specifications and procure components, follow up on and take part in the construction, quality control, assembly and installation of components you have designed, update models and drawings and follow the evolution of the PLM (Product Lifecycle Management), take part in installation and dismantling activities in the experimental area, participate in the LHCb infrastructure and safety stand-by duty service.

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree or equivalent relevant experience in the field of mechanical engineering or a related field.

Experience:

You shall have experience in:

preparing 3D models, managing CAD assemblies, preparing manufacturing drawings, according to ISO-GPS standards.

Experience in the following areas would be considered an asset:

Working with CATIA V5 and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management), Working in multi-disciplinary teams, Mechanical machining.

Technical competencies:

Integration of mechanical systems Production of 2D drawings and 3D models Design and analysis of mechanical structures Knowledge of design codes and compliance verification of mechanical equipment Knowledge and application of manufacturing methods and work preparation

Behavioural competencies:

Working in Teams:Building and maintaining constructive and effective work relationships. Managing Self:Working well autonomously; taking on activities and tasks without prompting,Taking initiative beyond regular tasks and making things happen. Demonstrating Flexibility:Being willing to work on different projects simultaneously. Solving Problems:Producing workable and timely solutions that meet requirements. Learning and Sharing Knowledge:Taking steps to expand knowledge in other areas of expertise beyond own field.

Language skills:

Ability to understand and speak English in professional contexts and draw up technical specifications,
Knowledge of French or willingness to acquire it would be an asset.

Additional Information

Eligibility and closing date:

has been an integral part of CERN's mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organization. Employing a diverse workforce is central to our success. We welcome applications from all .

This vacancy will be filled as soon as possible, and applications should normally reach us no later than 20.06.2024
