Your responsibilities
The Measurements, Test & Analysis (MTA) section within the Controls Electronics and Mechatronics (CEM) group of the Beams (BE) department provides turnkey solutions for measurement and test systems at CERN.
A crucial part of this service is the ability to seamlessly integrate in to the CERN accelerator infrastructure. This integration is realized using the LabVIEW based RADE framework, which features database integration, middleware communication, device and fieldbus driver and more.
In this position, you will:
- Help ensure that the infrastructure is both maintained with minimum interruption to our clients and application dependencies, and at the same time leverages the latest improvements in both hardware and software;
- Support the transition from Apache tomcat web technology to container based satellite services to leverage the compartmentalized nature of microservices.

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.
Diversity has been an integral part of CERN's mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organization. Employing a diverse workforce is central to our success.
