ppAt 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. /p h3Functions /h3 ul liParticipate in the ALICE detector upgrade programme for LS3, specifically the installation of the new beam pipe, silicon tracker and forward calorimeter. /li liProvide mechanical engineering support and on-site supervision at the experiment site during the programmed maintenance periods. /li liProvide engineering support for the ALICE3 upgrade programme for LS4: definition of the experiment layout including integration of detectors, services, and all the related infrastructure. /li liDesign detector standard metallic and carbon-composite structures, supported by structural analyses to assess performance under mechanical, thermal, and dynamic loads using appropriate material models and failure criteria, ensuring strength, stability, and compliance with safety requirements. /li liWork closely with stakeholders, including detector experts, collaboration members, external companies and technical support teams from CERN and ALICE collaborating institutes. /li liSupport the ALICE Technical Coordination team in supervising designers and technicians during the daily work. /li /ul h3Qualifications /h3 ul liMaster's Degree or equivalent relevant experience in the field of Mechanical Engineering or a related field. /li /ul h3Experience /h3 ul liExperience in the design, construction, and assembly of mechanical systems. /li liProven experience in the use of CATIA for CAD design. /li liKnowledge of ANSYS for structural analysis. /li liExperience working in a multidisciplinary team, including supervision of technical engineers and technicians. /li liProven ability to coordinate work done by external companies and contractors. /li /ul h3Technical Competencies /h3 ul liDesign and analysis of mechanical structures. /li liKnowledge and application of numerical modelling in solid mechanics. /li liKnowledge and application of non-metallic composites. /li liProduction of 2D drawings and 3D models. /li liOrganisation, planning and control: coordination of activities involving different technical fields (mechanical work, metallic structures, heavy handling etc.). /li /ul h3Behavioural Competencies /h3 ul liAchieving Results: having a structured and organised approach towards work; being able to set priorities and plan tasks with results in mind. /li liManaging Self: working well autonomously; taking on activities and tasks without prompting. /li liDemonstrating Flexibility: readily accepting new tasks or work/projects. /li liWorking in Teams: building and maintaining constructive and effective work relationships. /li liDemonstrating Accountability: taking responsibility for own actions and decisions. /li /ul h3Language Skills /h3 ul liSpoken and written English, with a commitment to learn French. /li /ul h3Eligibility and Closing Date /h3 pDiversity has been an integral part of CERN's mission since its foundation and is an established value of the Organization.
