Material Technical Engineer (TE-VSC-SCC-2019-132-LD) Job in Meyrin, , Switzerland

At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter, the fundamental particles. The particles are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives the physicists clues about how the particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature.

Material Technical Engineer (TE-VSC-SCC-2019-132-LD) Job Description

Functions

• Operate and maintain the equipment dedicated to thin-film coatings of components for particle accelerators.
• Ensure availability of the plant and the quality of the production.
• Coordinate the preparation of the parts before coating with the surface treatment team of the section.
• In collaboration with the engineers and physicists of the team, adapt and develop the tools (holders, cathodes, masks…) and the parameters as a function of the various geometries and constraints of the parts to be treated.
• Interact with other members of the Organisation to set up the necessary quality control (for instance surface and material analysis, pumping speed and outgassing measurements, electron microscopy, etc…).
• Participate in the R&D phase of new thin films and processes bringing new ideas to continuously improve and adapt it to the demand of the Organisation.
• Ensure the coordination of a small team of technicians.

• Experience in operation of thin-film deposition devices and production of thin films by PVD or CVD or similar techniques.
• Initial experience in operation of High Vacuum or Ultra High Vacuum systems would be an asset.
• Knowledge of some of the main thin-film characterization techniques.
• Knowledge of basic material properties as thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, etc.

• Knowledge and use of standard vacuum components and piping: principles of operation of Ultra High Vacuum devices, like pumps, valves, pressure gauges, residual gas analysers etc.
• Knowledge of the physics concepts involved in the main thin-film deposition techniques.
• Basic knowledge of Labview programming would be an advantage.
