Jobbeschreibung

Electronics Engineer Silicon Sensors R&D

Datum: 15 juli, 2026 Tid: 11:59

Placering: CERN

Mer information

Dense tracking environments in experiments at CERN’s High-Luminosity LHC and future FCC experiments require increased use of timing information in addition to the position measurements provided by pixel detectors. This adds an extra dimension to the available information and is essential for mitigating pile-up effects at high luminosities. The CASSIA Project (CMOS Active SenSor with Internal Amplification) aims to develop monolithic active pixel sensors (MAPS) with internal signal gain and low noise in a widely used CMOS imaging process, targeting a broad range of applications.

Be sure to meet the eligibility criteria

• You are a national of aCERN Member State or Associate Member State. Currently, we cannot consider applications from Pakistani and Lithuanian nationals for positions with a 2026 start date, as the ceiling defined under Article II.5 of the Associate Membership Agreement has been reached.
• By the application deadline, you have a master’s degree with 2 to 6 years of professional experience since graduation or a PhD with a maximum of 3 years of professional experience since graduation. You are not eligible with only a bachelor’s degree.
• You have never had a CERN fellow or graduate contract before.
• Please pay attention to the additional criteria and requirements for this specific position and mentioned above.
