Are you qualified in physics, computing, electronics, electricity or electro-mechanics? Do you have a first experience in a technical or scientific environment? Take your career to an exciting new level by joining the team of operators who run CERN's accelerator complex. Take part!

Introduction

Accelerator operator in the Beams Department (BE), Operations Group (OP).

The Operations group is responsible for the operation of the entire CERN accelerator complex, which currently consists of two Linacs, five synchrotrons and five experimental areas. In addition to the varied proton, antiproton and heavy ion experimental programs, the complex also supplies protons and heavy ions to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the Operations Group is responsible for LHC operation. In addition to this the group is responsible for the operation of CERN's technical infrastructure.

You will join:

.The Beams department (BE), responsible for the beam production, beam and accelerator physics, beam diagnostics, radiofrequency, controls and performance optimization for the entire CERN accelerator complex including the LHC.

.The Operations Group (OP), responsible for the operation of all CERN's present and future accelerators, their associated experimental areas and for monitoring the overall technical infrastructure at CERN.

.The Proton Synchrotron Booster (PSB) and Proton Synchrotron (PS) Sections, consist of a dynamic 21-strong team that runs the PSB and PS, which are at the heart of the CERN accelerator complex and which are part of the LHC injector chain. Besides producing beam for the LHC, the PSB delivers beam to the radioactive ion beam facility (ISOLDE) and the PS, which delivers beam to experiments in the East Area, the neutron time of flight facility (nTOF), the antiproton decelerator (AD) and the Super Proton synchrotron (SPS).

This position offers you the opportunity to join a multinational team with a range of skills and expertise. You have the chance to broaden your knowledge into new areas of technical specialty and receive specific training and support for professional development.

Functions

As member of the accelerator operations team, you will:

.Be part of the 24-7 shift team that runs CERN's accelerator complex.

.Oversee the operation of one of the accelerators and the associated experimental facilities on a shift basis, applying the safety rules.

.Work closely with accelerator physicists and setup and optimize the accelerator operation.

.Outside periods of accelerator operation, assist the technical infrastructure team with the operation of CERN's technical infrastructure, if required.

.Outside periods of shifts, and after a training period, you will participate in software or hardware related development or maintenance for one or more of the accelerators in the complex, either under the supervision of an engineer within the OP group or within the framework of a specialized equipment group in the department.

Your main activities will consist of:

.Monitoring the accelerator and beam production status and act promptly in case of issues arising.

.Adjusting machine parameters in order to ensure beam characteristics for the experiments are according to the specifications, using a large range of diagnostic tools.

.Troubleshooting beam physics and technical accelerator related problems, using a range of powerful diagnostic tools, perform data analysis and ensure a solution will be implemented with the expert support from the different equipment groups.

.Participating in the optimisation of the accelerator performance of the operational beams.

Qualification required
