Electrical Test Engineer - HL-LHC Superconducting Magnets (Remote)

About the Role

We are seeking an Electrical Test Engineer - HL-LHC Superconducting Magnets (Remote) to join our dynamic team at CERN. This role is pivotal for ensuring the safe operation of superconducting magnet circuits for the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). You will engage in rigorous electrical qualification at both room temperature and cryogenic conditions (1.9 K), contributing to a variety of electrical test campaigns. This is an excellent opportunity for recent graduates or early-career engineers to gain hands-on experience in a highly collaborative, international research environment.

What You'll Do

• Participate in the preparation and execution of electrical tests on HL-LHC magnets, interconnections, components, and circuits in test facilities.
• Contribute to the improvement and documentation of test procedures.
• Support the investigation of non-conformities through fault diagnostics and data analysis.
• Assist in collecting, organizing, and analyzing electrical qualification data from internal teams and external collaborators.
• Process, analyze, and visualize measurement data from superconducting circuits.

Requirements

• Familiarity with electrical test setups or laboratory equipment.
• Basic commissioning or maintenance of electrical systems.
• Experience in electrical measurements and instrumentation.
• Knowledge of data analysis, including introductory statistical methods.
• Programming skills in Python or LabVIEW.
• Data management experience with SQL or databases.
• Technical documentation or report writing skills.
• Exposure to superconducting systems or cryogenic environments is a plus.

Nice to Have

• Experience developing measurement methods or test equipment.

What We Offer

• A monthly stipend between 5266-5793 Swiss Francs (tax-free) depending on your degree.
• 30 days of paid leave per year plus 2 weeks annual closure.
• Comprehensive health insurance coverage for yourself, your spouse, and children.
