Company Description
At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world's largest and most complex scientific instruments, they study the basic constituents of matter - fundamental particles that are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives physicists clues about how particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. Find out more on http://home.cern.
Job Description
Introduction
Are you an enthusiastic engineer interested in the development and manufacturing of normal conducting accelerator magnets? Come and join a great team pushing the limits of this technology, working on the Future Circular Collider (FCC), take part!
Normal conducting magnets – in contrast to superconducting ones – operate at room temperature and they are at the core of the FCC lepton collider. The Magnets, Superconductors, and Cryostats (MSC) group within CERN's Technology Department (TE) has the mandate to design, construct, and test superconducting and normal conducting magnets for the accelerator complex. The group oversees the design, integration and procurement of magnets. Additionally, it supports accelerator operations by ensuring magnet performance and maintenance. The Normal Conducting Magnets section (NCM) is focused on the normal conducting magnets for present and future accelerators and beam lines. 
Join a great team ensuring the reliable operation and the upgrade of all normal conducting magnets on the CERN accelerator complex. 
Functions
As magnet engineer with expertise in normal conducting accelerator magnets you will: 

Develop cost-effective technologies for normal conducting magnets, with a focus on prototyping and their integration into the Future Circular Collider (FCC); 

Study and propose manufacturing and procurement strategies for the FCC magnets, tailored to the scale of the project and targeting an efficient and effective production, installation and maintenance; 

Plan, organise and direct the maintenance, repair, testing and modification of existing magnets in operation, including specific renovation campaigns, with a view to apply the lessons learned to the FCC magnets. 
Qualifications
Master's degree or PhD or equivalent relevant experience in the field of electro-mechanical engineering or a related field or a related field.
Experience:
We are looking for a magnet engineer to focus on the design and construction of normal conducting magnets for particle accelerators, in particular the FCC, with the following experience: 

Proven experience in the design and construction of normal conducting accelerator magnets; 

Experience in the procurement of normal conducting magnets, either in industry or in a laboratory; 

Experience analysing mechanical and magnetic measurements and implementing lessons learned in the design.     📚 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗮 𝗝𝗼𝗯 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗡 𝗶𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯! 🌍🤝 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗡𝗘𝗪 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗿𝘂𝗶𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗚𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗡 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗨𝗡𝗛𝗖𝗥, 𝗪𝗙𝗣, 𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗖𝗘𝗙, 𝗨𝗡𝗗𝗦𝗦, 𝗨𝗡𝗙𝗣𝗔, 𝗜𝗢𝗠 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝘀! 🌐
