Mer information

Are you a skilled and experienced System Administrator and Computing Engineer? Do you want to contribute to the unique challenge of making all CERN particle accelerators function in an efficient and synchronised manner? Join CERN’s Controls Software & Services group, to work on the computing infrastructure needed to run the largest particle physics laboratory in the world. Take Part!

The 24/7 availability of core control system services is critical to the surveillance and operation of CERN’s particle accelerators, enabling the organisation to fulfil its central mission. To ensure the robustness and scalability of those services and to open the door to multi-data-centre high-availability techniques to reinforce business continuity, the services are progressively being migrated to a new on-premises Kubernetes infrastructure, backed by modern network storage and DevOps technologies.

Our team helps make this a success through the development and evolution of this computing infrastructure needed as a core element of the accelerator complex controls.

You will have the opportunity to contribute and influence the evolution of this complex and challenging infrastructure, imprinting your remarkable engineering skills on mission‑critical solutions for CERN, which will serve for the coming decades.
