Ideal start date: 01/10/2026
Contract duration (in months): 48
Grade range: 6
Benchmark job: 200090 - Mechanical Engineer
Job flexibility: Fully Onsite
Team supervision
What you'll do:
You will play a key role in the design, prototyping, construction, and integration of the mechanical structures and services for the innermost region of the CMS detector at CERN. This includes beam-pipe support structures, tracker bulkheads, beam-luminosity and beam-background monitors, and their associated services. The work will culminate in the equipment installation and commissioning at the end of the Long Shutdown 3 of the LHC.
Your responsibilities:
- Prepare 3D models and technical drawings and perform thermo-mechanical analyses of complex mechanical components and assemblies.
- Contribute to component procurement and oversee fabrication of mechanical parts, including related quality assurance.
- Lead and supervise the assembly of mock-ups, prototypes, and final versions of support structures for the CMS innermost region.
- Assist with the integration and testing of the Inner Tracker and Luminosity Monitors at CERN.
- Support and supervise colleagues from collaborating institutes participating in integration activities at CERN.
Your profile:
- Proven experience in design of complex mechanical components and assemblies using 3D CAD tools.
- Experience with structural and thermal simulations using finite-element analysis.
- Experience in construction, assembly, and quality control of mechanical systems.
- Demonstrated ability to work effectively within a multidisciplinary team, establishing and maintaining constructive and effective working relationships with a diverse range of colleagues.
- Master's Degree or equivalent relevant experience in the field of Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
Your skills:
- Design and analysis of mechanical structures.
- Production of 2D drawings and 3D models.
- Knowledge and application of numerical modelling in solid mechanics.
- Manufacturing of mechanical parts.
- Builds and maintains constructive and effective work relationships.
- Shares knowledge and expertise freely and willingly with others; coaches others to ensure knowledge transfer.
- Creates a common mind-set and promotes team spirit.
- Spoken and written English, with a commitment to learn French.
Employment conditions:
- A valid driving licence.
- Shift work, when required by the needs of the Organization.
- Work in Radiation Areas.
- Interventions in underground installations.
- Work during nights, Sundays and official holidays, when required by the needs of the Organization.
