Company Description:

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 http://home.cern.

Job Description/Introduction:

Are you an enthusiastic engineer interested in magnets and particle accelerators? The most advanced electromagnets in the world are fundamental components at the core of all CERN accelerators, including the Future Circular Collider, https://fcc.web.cern.ch/. Come and join a great team pushing the limits of this technology, working on this ambitious machine. Take part!

In the Magnets, Superconductors and Cryostats (MSC) group within CERN's Technology Department (TE), https://te-msc-group-webpage.web.cern.ch/, we design, build, and support the operation of all beam line magnets in the CERN accelerator complex, both normal and superconducting. Our Magnetic Measurement and Modelling Section (MMM), https://te-msc-tm.web.cern.ch/, leads the way in developing and implementing cutting-edge instrumentation. We create innovative solutions for magnetic measurements, and material characterization. Our work also includes computational solutions to tackle challenges in electromagnetism as well as magnetic field shielding and safety aspects.

Be part of a diverse, innovative team ensuring the reliable operation of the magnets of the CERN accelerator complex and contributing to the upgrades that will make tomorrow's machines a reality. Join us and make an impact on the future of particle physics!

Functions

As a Magnet Test and Measurement Engineer you will:

• Develop, test and qualify the instrumentation (hardware and software components) and calibration procedures aimed at the dynamic characterization and control of magnets for the Future Circular Collider;
• Define testing strategies for the Future Circular Collider magnets, tailored to the scale of the project, and model driven experiments to meet beam optics requirements and operational efficiency targets;
• Organise and carry out data acquisition and reduction campaigns on relevant magnets, as support to the development of instrumentation to apply the lessons learned to the Future Circular Collider.

Qualifications

Master's degree or PhD or equivalent relevant experience in the field of electronics, electrical engineering or a related field.
