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

The Engineering Department (EN) pushes back the limits of technology so that physicists can carry out their research. Within the Electrical Engineering (EL) group of the EN department, you will join the Cabling Services Section which ensures electrical interconnections, both signal and power, for numerous components crucial to CERN operation.

Are you an experienced electrical engineer looking to take part in the design, planning, installation and maintenance of signal and power cable installations in a large industrial setting? Join in and contribute to the infrastructures that form the backbone of CERN's accelerator complex. Take part!

Functions

As an Electrical Engineer - Cable Systems Project Manager within the Cabling Section, you'll play a key role in expanding, strengthening, and maintaining CERN's signal and power cable installations, required for various systems within the CERN accelerators, such as alarm systems, process control systems, beam instrumentation and magnet powering systems.

You will:

• Lead projects related to the extension, replacement, or dismantling of electrical cable systems, including signal and power cables, ensuring timely delivery within scope and budget;
• Define and manage project parameters such as scope, resources, planning, budget and risks, while providing periodic reports and insights to management;
• Contribute to studies including the definition of cable types, connectors' assembly and routing, in collaboration with users and taking into consideration the constraints of the work environment;
• Propose, develop and implement cabling execution strategies, including structuring the project into phases, reviewing and adjusting the scope, and proposing technical modifications as needed.
• Ensure the preparation of detailed work documentation (e.g., drawings, cable lists) for CERN's contractors, ensuring clarity and compliance with standards for electrical system installations;
• Organize, supervise and ensure safety for cabling activities on the CERN worksites, requiring close on-site interactions with contractors, services and CERN users from other groups and departments;
• Draw up technical specifications, participate to tendering process and manage associated industrial supply contracts;
• Structure and standardize project management within the section, ensuring consistent processes and best practices;
• Supervise and guide members of a small project team, ensuring effective collaboration and alignment with project objectives
