Your responsibilities
The TE-CRG-IC section has undertaken an important upgrade of the cryogenic instrumentation solutions and their associated test benches infrastructure.
The instrumentation Engineer/Physicist will participate in the development, procurement and commissioning for new instrumentation and dedicated test benches.
In particular, you will:
• Development of new cryogenic instrumentation type (pressure, cryogen level, temperature, flow) that requires qualification, certification and/or adaptation to the radiation environment.
• Maintenance of the LabView based stations for qualifying series of batches of RadTol data acquisition systems, calibrating sensors and preparing reporting and recommendations.
• Field support for cryogenic instrumentation present in the CERN infrastructures, when automatic LabView based equipment is required.

About us
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.
