<h2>Job details</h2><h3>Job description</h3>Company Description: At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. Using the world&#39;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. Job Description/Introduction: Are you ready to work hands-on with the magnets that keep CERN&#39;s accelerators running? The Magnets, Superconductors and Cryostats (MSC) group of the Technology Department (TE) designs, constructs and measures the superconducting and normal conducting magnets for the CERN accelerator complex. The group is also in charge of integrating magnets into the CERN accelerator complex, designing and procuring magnet cryostats and performing magnet quality control. In addition, it provides operational support for magnets, magnet performance and related devices such as current leads. Within MSC, the Normal Conducting Magnets (NCM) section is responsible for the design, construction, commissioning, maintenance, and upgrade of the normal conducting magnets for present and future CERN accelerators and beam lines. This is your chance to join a collaborative, international team, work with unique technologies, and contribute directly to the reliable performance of the world&#39;s largest accelerator complex. Functions: As an electromechanical technician in the NCM section, you will participate in the consolidation of normal conducting accelerator magnets installed in the CERN complex, in the assembly of new magnets and in reception tests of new units or components from industry.   You will: - Participate in the refurbishment, manufacture and testing of normal conducting magnets in CERN workshops including the compilation of related quality control documents. - Carry out preventive and corrective maintenance interventions on normal conducting magnets installed in the CERN accelerator complex. - Contribute to the design, development, and procurement of dedicated tools, equipment and components required for both refurbishment activities and the production of new normal conducting magnets. Qualifications: Technical certificate or general secondary education or equivalent relevant experience in the field of electromechanical engineering or a related field. Experience: The following proven experience is required for this post: - Manufacture and assembly of electromechanical devices. - Carrying out corrective and preventive maintenance of electromechanical devices. - Reading and understanding of mechanical and electrical drawings. In addition, it would be an advantage to have experience in the following: - Conventional mechanical machining. - TIG / MIG welding, and ideally brazing techniques. - Mechanical and / or electrical measurements. Technical competencies: - Construction, test and installation of electromechanical equipment and systems. - Operation and maintenance of electromechanical equipment and systems. - Assembly of mechanical structures and equipment. - Knowledge and application of joining techniques: welding: brazing, soldering. Behavioural competencies: - Working in Teams: contributing to promoting a positive atmosphere in the team through an optimistic and constructive attitude; addressing issues; working well in groups and readily fitting into a team; participating fully and taking an active role in team activities. - Demonstrating Accountability: working conscientiously and reliably; delivering on promises. - Achieving Results: having a structured and organised approach towards work; being able to set priorities and plan tasks with results in mind. - Demonstrating Flexibility: readily accepting new tasks or work/projects. Language skills: Spoken and written English or French, with a commitment to learn the other language. Additional Information/Eligibility and closing date: Diversity has been an integral part of CERN&#39;s mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organisation. Employing a diverse workforce is central to our success. We welcome applications from all Member States and Associate Member States. This position involves: - Work in Radiation Areas. - Interventions in underground installations. - A valid driving licence. - Stand-by duty, when required by the needs of the Organisation. - Use of certain mobile work equipment or equipment used for lifting loads (lifting equipment, bridge cranes, aerial work platforms, etc.) requiring a driving authorisation. - Operations on electrical installations or in their vicinity (over 1000 Volt AC or 1500 Volt DC) requiring a specific authorisation. - Exposure to electromagnetic fields under certain exposure conditions. - Given the occupational health risks associated with this position, the selected candidate must obtain medical clearance before a contract offer is confirmed.<h3>Job location</h3>Switzerland<h2>Job requirements</h2>Driving licence B
