Reference BEOPPS201419LD Type Contract Position PS Accelerator Operation Technician Location Geneva, Switzerland Industry Electronics Salary Swiss Franc 5794 Swiss Franc 6584 per month Description PS Accelerator Operation Technician Functions As member of the PS operations team, you will Be part of the 247 shift team that runs CERNs accelerator complex. Oversee the operation of the PS accelerator and the associated Experimental Facilities on a shift basis, ensuring the application of 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 CERNs technical infrastructure, if required. Outside periods of shifts, and after a training period, you will participate in software or hardware related development and 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 PS accelerator performance of the operational beams. Taking initiative in the optimisation of the PS accelerator performance individually or in close collaboration with the team of accelerator physicist, by preparing and performing machine tests, measurement and accelerator studies. Qualification required Higher technical diploma in the field of physics, computing, electronics, electricity, electromechanics, or equivalent. Experience and competencies The experience required for this post is Initial work experience in a technical or scientific environment. Experience in the field of physics, computing, electronics, electricity or electromechanics. The following would be an advantage Knowledge and experience in the field of software engineering in a modern development language environment e.g. JAVA. Experience in the field of or accelerator operation andor accelerator related hardware e.g. measurement devices, power converter techniques, vacuum equipment, PLCs, work in controlled radiation areas, etc. The technical competencies required for this post are Accelerator operation. Accelerator performance analysis optimization. Commissioning maintenance of electromechanical equipment. ProgrammingSoftware development. Founded in 1954 in Geneva, CERN the European Organization for Nuclear Research is the worlds most advanced fundamental research institute for particle physics.
