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.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
CERN is seeking a Radiation Effects Physicist or Engineer to join the Radiation to Electronics team within the SY-STI-BMI section. Our team plays a crucial role in ensuring the reliable operation of radiation-exposed electronic components and systems in CERN’s accelerator environment.
YOUR ROLE:
As a key member of our team, you will:
- Conduct radiation effects testing on electronic components and systems, focusing on Single Event Effects (SEE) characterization.
- Contribute to the advancement of best practices and guidelines for radiation effects testing in accelerator environments.
- Perform experimental research to support SEE modeling activities within the team.
- Carry out tests in various facilities, both at CERN and externally, analyzing a wide range of electronic components and SEE types.
- Play a leading role in experiments at CERN’s new high-energy heavy-ion beam facility (linked to the HEARTS EU project) and the soon-to-be-commissioned SEE laser test bench.
- Investigate SEE mechanisms and their dependence on test conditions, including particle type and energy.
- Contribute to updating procedures for quantifying neutron-induced SEE rates in accelerator mixed-field environments.
