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.
Mechanical Technician Job Description
The post is opened in the Magnets, Superconductors and Cryostats (TE-MSC) Group.
As an experienced mechanical technician, you will take responsibility for the operation, maintenance and upgrade of the mechanical workshop in the magnet laboratory that is responsible for the development of new types of superconducting magnets and you will be inolved in the manufacture of challenging mechanical parts. You will:
- Be the workshop reference person on CNC machine programming.
- Receive requests for work from colleagues in the Section and in the Group (the Clients) and plan the work in the workshop.
- Fabricate special challenging parts on CNC and conventional milling and turning machines.
- Formulate machining sequences for the manufacture of standard and challenging parts.
- Sub-contract part manufacturing to the CERN central workshop and specialized firms, as appropriate.
- Write documentation and execute QC on the machined parts.
- Lead a small team of mechanical craftspersons to fabricate precise and challenging parts designed for magnets.
We offer a limited-duration contract for a period of 5 years.
