What you'll do

Are you interested in developing measurement, control and monitoring tools that are used on real scientific infrastructure?

You will join a team working on various measurement instrumentation and control applications used to operate, supervise, and improve CERN systems. You will contribute to the development and evolution of software built with LabVIEW and Python, supporting both existing operational tools and new developments. This includes applications used for vacuum measurements, data logging, gas analysis and the integration of instrumentation into CERN's control environment. The role also includes work related to new installations and upgrades, where reliable monitoring, automation and safe operation are essential.

This is an opportunity to work close to equipment, users and experts, and to contribute to tools that are directly relevant for daily operation, commissioning and future upgrades. You will gain practical experience in measurement, controls, software integration, instrumentation and test environments, while learning CERN working methods and standards in a highly collaborative setting.
