Arbetsbeskrivning

What you'll do: High-temperature superconducting materials have interesting characteristics that make them suitable for future magnet applications. Come join CERN and take part in this exciting development. As a mechanical technician, you will assemble models, prototypes and associated equipment within a research and development (R&D) programme dedicated to the development of high-temperature superconducting magnets. You will contribute to the design, manufacture and assembly of superconducting coils, components and associated tooling. Your responsibilities: - Produce high-temperature superconductor-based magnet coils. - Assemble superconducting magnet models, prototypes and associated manufacturing tools. - Manufacture and modify mechanical parts using conventional machining techniques, such as milling, turning and forming. - Manage component stocks for assigned assemblies, initiate and follow up manufacturing requests and purchase orders, and perform acceptance tests. - Prepare production and quality-control documentation, including procedures, test and measurement reports and component traceability. - Produce computer-aided design (CAD) drawings of components and tooling, starting from 3D models. Your profile: - Hands-on experience in the mechanical manufacturing and assembly of electromechanical equipment, including conventional machining. - Experience preparing and using quality documentation, including procedures, test and measurement reports, and component traceability. - Experience reading mechanical drawings, including ISO-GPS dimensioning and tolerancing. - Previous experience with superconducting systems would be an asset. - Experience using mechanical CAD tools; specific experience with CATIA would be an asset. - Technical certificate or general secondary education or equivalent relevant experience in the field of Mechanical Engineering or a related field. Your skills: - Assembly of mechanical structures and equipment. - Knowledge and application of manufacturing methods and work preparation. - Manufacturing of mechanical parts. - Production of 2D drawings and 3D models. - Construction, test and installation of electromechanical equipment and systems. - Works well in groups and readily fits into a team; participates fully and takes an active role in team activities. - Takes responsibility for own actions and decisions. - Adapts quickly and resourcefully to shifting priorities and requirements. - Listens actively to others and lets others speak. - Produces workable and timely solutions that meet requirements. - Spoken and written English or French, with a commitment to learn the other language. Employment conditions: A valid driving licence. Work in radiation controlled areas. Interventions in underground installations.
