Your responsibilities

Join our team at CERN's SY-STI-TCD section and play a critical role in the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of beam-intercepting devices essential to our accelerator complex.

• As a dedicated and skilled production engineer, you will work within a multidisciplinary team to develop, assemble, install, and maintain these precision mechanical systems in challenging environments.
• Your expertise will be crucial in designing devices that withstand high radiation levels during operation, focusing on optimizing both intervention procedures and reliability.
• You will lead mechanical design efforts, perform structural calculations, and manage project progress to ensure the durability and efficiency of our North Area beam intercepting devices at CERN.
• Your responsibilities will include coordinating the production, assembly, and validation of equipment, as well as participating in commissioning activities before installation.
• You will also oversee procuring components, writing technical specifications, and following up on contractors' work to ensure quality and compliance with CERN standards.

If you excel in a dynamic setting and are passionate about overcoming the challenges of advanced production engineering within a world-renowned scientific institution, we invite you to join us in advancing the future of particle physics at CERN.

About us

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.

Diversity 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.
