Engineer / Technician
Job Description
Your responsibilitiesWe are looking for a Detector Integration Engineer to contribute to the integration studies of the detectors for the Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee). This critical role involves close collaboration with the Physics Performance Study Group, the Machine-Detector Integration Team, and the FCC Civil Engineering Team.
Your work will focus on optimizing detector proposals for physics performance while conducting engineering integration studies. These studies will address detector segmentation, assembly strategies, and opening scenarios during short and long machine shutdowns. Additionally, your efforts will need to balance engineering constraints, such as experiment cavern dimensions and main shaft specifications, with the often conflicting requirements of the detectors and machine systems.

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.
